Completely Change your Sleep Pattern in just 2 days.

[Belesarius]

I recently saw a lot of threads and contributions regarding fixing your sleep.

Pull an all-nighter.

Go to sleep 9-10 hours before the time you wish to wake up in from now on. Avoid excess amounts of caffeine.

That’s it.

In the last 2 days I changed my sleep pattern from going to sleep at 2 A.M. to waking up at 4 A.M.

Now I feel like I always woke up at 4 A.M.

Pulling an all-nighter sucks, and it requires discipline to not fall asleep, but it is the fastest way to completely reset your sleep pattern.

In the last 2 days

Do you think 2 days is enough time for these changes to stick? Genuinely curious to know how this is going for you in a couple of weeks.

On another note, I've found that camping immensely helps reset my circadian rhythm.

It usually sticks for a couple of weeks or even months. In the summer It is easier because the sun gets up so early. Circadian Rythm is a huge part of the process of course, and you should stick to yours. This was just a message for the people that have a messed up sleep cycle for days or even weeks. This is the fastest and most effective method that worked for me.

I am not a hustler like you Johnny Boy, YET. Maybe I can get there one day. In the future I will even decrease my sleep Time from 2 hours to negative sleep watch me rise and grind .

Interesting, I think it's because you get full light exposure during the day, pitch black darkness at night, and you get to see the sunset and sunrise - which are the most powerful triggers for circadian regulation.

We even have specialized neurons to detect when the sun is at the horizon and has that unique red color.

Also, if you take advantage of being immersed in nature (e.g., not really using cell phones, etc.), you're much more influenced by natural light. You get sleepy faster when the sun sets (even when in front of a campfire), and there's less you can do/be distracted by. So you just go to sleep. Then in the morning, a tent allows in a lot of sun light that tends to get blocked by our usual housing, so you're more likely to rise with the sun. In my experience, it feels amazing.

I only skimmed this, but I think it touches on what we've both said so far:

I guess that's one of the reasons why some rich guys promote the usage of infrared sauna in the morning to stimulate the brain.
