I'm talking about deep sleep.
And if you don't get enough, you'll probably struggle with cravings, slow metabolism, premature aging, and many other adverse effects.

And it's powerful because it gives us direct insight into where, on some level, we're not okay with meeting reality fully, and some level where there's an unconscious drive still running the show.
And again, we talked about this earlier, it can be painful to realize how...
