- Let the head sink into the bed/pillow
- Drive the eyes into “the garage” for the night and lock them down. This involves rolling the eyeballs and shoving them behind the upper brow.
- Imagine that you are watching your breath. That’s enough to clear the mind
You’ll be asleep in seconds, and won’t even know it.

Reduce snoring
My snorelab score ranges from 22 to 79. I’ve done 5 tests by now over one month. According to the snorelab app website, I’m a MODERATE SNORER.
