LESSON 6 · Break Through Brain Fog
The Sleep-Focus Protocol
You do not need to overhaul your life. These five changes give the biggest next-day payoff:
- Same wake time daily — a steady schedule beats chasing total hours
- Dark room — even light through closed eyelids holds back melatonin
- Cool room — around 18C; warmer means less deep sleep
- No screens 60 minutes before bed — bright light delays your body clock
- Morning sunlight — soon after waking, the strongest signal for tonight's sleep
Stack each one onto a habit you already have: attach "no phone past 10 PM" to brushing your teeth, and "get outside" to your morning coffee.
