🌟 Today’s Sleep Tip: The 90-Minute Rule
Your body runs on natural sleep cycles of about 90 minutes. Instead of aiming for “8 hours,” try planning your sleep in 90-minute blocks. For example:
6 hours (4 cycles)
7.5 hours (5 cycles)
9 hours (6 cycles)
This helps you wake up at the end of a cycle instead of in the middle — which means you’ll feel more refreshed even if you sleep less.
👉 Try this tonight: Count backwards from your desired wake-up time in 90-minute chunks, and set your bedtime accordingly.
🛠 Quick Sleep Hack: Cool Your Room
Science shows the ideal sleep temp is 60–67°F. Too warm? Try:
A fan near your bed
Breathable cotton or linen sheets
A lukewarm shower before bed (it helps your core body temp drop faster)
