I mean, one of the things that happens normally in the transition every night when you fall asleep is you're going from primarily sympathetic tone to primarily parasympathetic tone. So anything that is strengthening or putting you there already makes it easier. I know you have videos about cyclic sighing and I do too.

I mean, my own experience which I was sharing with you before we started talking was Not only does cycloxying help me fall asleep better, it actually helped me stay asleep throughout the night better.

Yeah, I mean some might. I mean some – it may be a prostate issue. Yeah. Clearly that isn't accounting for half the population, but I think it's much more the neurologic innervation of our bladder. All our nerves start functioning not quite as well, and they're just getting the signal that I really need to urinate right now when pretty clearly most of those people don't. They could wait, but...

the signal is arriving that says you have to and it's believable and you don't want to deal with it if it's, you know, you don't want to not listen to it if it is right, so.

So when I read your paper with Spiegel and others January, For years, I've said, I don't have a meditation practice. Most people think I'm sort of so chill or relaxed that I do. You seem like a pretty mellow dude. I haven't ever taken the time to do it, which I'm embarrassed by. So I said, read the paper. I can do five minutes a day of cyclic sighing. And I tried, and it was...

Some days I was getting it in, and many days I wasn't getting it in until bedtime, which is that I slept really well until I was around 40 and not so well the next 20 years, mostly with the trouble of falling asleep, even though I knew of relaxation techniques and others. So I wound up just consistently doing it to do it more for the general health, and I do have slightly elevated blood pressure.

and relaxation and to see what effect it would have. And it was clear. So I do about five minutes and much more than five minutes I tell people, and I might be doing it a little slower than most, count out about 20 or 25 reps of it. And if you lose track, it doesn't matter. Just go back to the lowest number. Because again, everything we're trying to do is decrease arousal.
