They make a really big difference. And I mean, even my girlfriend, who's super cute and didn't know any of this stuff. It's so funny. We fly somewhere. We're in a hotel and we're both walking through with these red glasses on and people think they must be celebrities or something like, sure, whatever. We just want to sleep tonight.
The second thing that is profound, and this is necessary, the higher up you are in leadership in an organization, in a community, in your family, or just self-leadership, the more recovery and self-regulation matters. And that means sleep is important. So we talked about light exposure. We talked about the true dark glasses. The other thing that's crazy easy to do is called mouth taping.

And you get something called sleep tape. You can buy it on Amazon and you put it right here over your lips and it holds your lips together. And that means you breathe through your nose at night. When you breathe through your nose at night, it increases oxygen levels in the brain dramatically. So you get better sleep and your brain recovers and then you are more present and grounded in the morning.

And for anyone in a relationship, the more time you spend with tape over your mouth, the better the relationship. I don't know why that is, but it seems to be, it works for me.

You want one more sleep hack that I don't talk about enough. Let's go. If you were to put wooden blocks under the head of your bed to raise it between four and six inches. So your bed's just at a slight angle. There are really good studies out of Germany that show that it helps your brain dump toxins and recirculate them.

And it has a very good chance of reducing Alzheimer's disease and you get better sleep. So just a slight angle to your bed where you raise the head. And again, it's by a couple of wooden blocks, it's not that hard to do. And then magically, you recover better. So I'm all about the things that take very little effort and create the most results, because I got a lot of stuff to do.

And heavily meditated, the whole theory of this is you want to enter this altered state, whether it's for deprogramming yourself, whether it's for intuition or creativity or to be grounded. There are ancient technologies and new technologies that will put you there quickly.

This is in, I think, my book on brain function. I went through the research on this, but I have it in my brain. If you don't have apnea and you don't snore, and taping can help with that, sleeping on your back is good with a little pillow under your neck. So it kind of pushes your head back like that, like a rolled up pillow, but not so your head is kind of crunched in like that.
