Increasingly convinced that sleep quality is much more important than quantity, just harder to control I have more energy from 5.5 hours of excellent sleep than 8 hours of decent sleep On the whole though, harder to replicate shorter spans of quality sleep

+1. My biggest sleep hack so far has been fixing my septum and building a habit of nasal breathing. I cut my sleep per day by around 1-1.5h and feel much better than before.

Quitting cannabis has been the best thing I've done for this.

I was watching a lecture by Bryan Johnson? And he said the number 1 predictor of good sleep was heart rate 1 hour before sleeping. He tried to get it down to 47 for perfect night of sleep. So I imagine based on that: blue light / food / stress before sleeping (Eg a drama / action TVshow) would be not so good

Several things I have found useful: - screens off 30+ min before lights out - consistent nighttime routine - Huberman guidance: L-Theanine and Magnesium before bed; cool temps and natural light as close to waking as possible - no water after about 45 min before lights out (750ml upon waking) - eye mask and white noise

Highly recommend getting an Oura or a Whoop and start experimenting with food, exercise, drinks, supplements. It had the highest impact on my health recently

@survey do you think sleep duration or quality impacts you more?

The right temperature and humidity is crucial for sleep quality. Cold and not dry

agreed. When I was doing before bed cjc1295/ipamorelin injections I was getting crazy deep sleep but was waking up earlier than normal, and felt so much better.

yes, pay attention to deep sleep, then REM, then light sleep in that order. In my experience, during the day you need to get enough mental + physical stimulation in order to get consistent good sleep. and of course dietary life style also important. I try to get dinner done before 5 pm, like 5 hours before bed.

Think about 10 hrs with the same quality... that's my ritual. I do have the luxury of being able to control my calendar and get 10 hours on average a night.

Somewhat related, I've found that a poor sleep doesnt impact me the next day, but rather the day *after* that

Agreed, 8 hours is the benchmark assuming unstable/uncontrollable factors that decrease quality. Anything from humidity to partner rolling over and waking you up can mess up sleep quality, and I feel like the performance edge I get from โ€œensuringโ€ I feel rested is worth the extra hour.

Eating less food improved my sleep quite a lot Turns out, if you have high quality food, much calories can be omitted

Have found the โ€œrestorative sleepโ€ (I.e. REM + SWS) metric on whoop invaluable for tuning this
