Sleep expert Tiani: the military method helps you fall asleep in just a few minutes.
The quick sleep technique used by the military helps individuals fall asleep in just a few minutes, even in stressful conditions. The details of this method were revealed by psychologist and sleep expert Dr. Alaina Tiani in an interview with Daily Express.
Tiani explained that the technique was developed in the armed forces to allow soldiers and pilots to fall asleep quickly. Now, according to the specialist, it is also used by civilians to combat insomnia.
The expert noted that the first step involves completely relaxing the facial muscles, including the eyes, jaw, and tongue. The second step is to relax the shoulders and arms, followed by relaxing the torso and legs. The third step of this technique involves controlling breathing and visualizing a calm scene, such as a boat on a quiet lake or resting in a dark room. "The military method activates the parasympathetic nervous system, which speeds up the process of falling asleep," the doctor explained.
She added that not everyone can fall asleep quickly on the first try. However, regular practice, according to Tiani, improves the situation and helps individuals fall asleep faster.
