How to Sleep Deeply and Quickly Without Exercise in the Daytime

Simple breathing method Japanese brainwave researcher found

The quality of sleep deteriorates as we get older, while the length also gets shorter. However, the importance of sleep remains the same as when we were younger.

The good news is that we can reclaim deep sleep.

I discovered a breathing method that leads to a happy and deep sleep without taking any medication or doing daytime exercises. The method is incredibly simple, introduced by Kazumasa Shiga, a brainwave researcher.

Try this even if you have already experimented with various tools.

When you breathe in, mentally say, "(what happened was) Good/Great/Amazing," and when you breathe out, say in your mind, "Thank you." Repeat this until you fall asleep.

That’s it.

Simple but very effective.

Not only does this breath help with deeper sleep, but it also helps us:

1. Take a positive approach to life.

2. Worry less about things.

3. Avoid getting tired quickly.

4. Find everything delicious.

5. Feel hopeful.

6. Become creative.

7. Get rid of chronic physical problems.
   

This method even saved the founder of Panasonic from insomnia

The founder, Konosuke Matsushita, struggled to sleep when he was an executive advisor of the company due to the challenges he faced. Shiga advised him to inhale saying "Great" in his mind and exhale saying "Thank you" in his mind, emphasizing the importance of joy and gratitude before sleep.

Matsushita eventually improved his ability to sleep well after practicing this method.

This method also helps in secreting dopamine. Saying "Great" and "Thank you" in our minds activates the nervous system related to dopamine, resulting in the automatic secretion of dopamine and a feeling of happiness.

Dopamine is one of the happy hormones, promoting a positive and happy feeling.

Slow Alpha Wave

The slow alpha wave of 7.8 Hz, which occurs when telling ourselves "Great" and "Thank you," is crucial to staying positive, happy, and creative.

Shiga introduced various cases where people who practiced this breath experienced an improvement in various physical problems, not just in achieving deeper sleep or waking up feeling light.

When we cannot appreciate what happened

There are times when we cannot appreciate what happened, and we simply cannot say "Great." In such situations, Shiga suggests not forcing ourselves to say that. It is 100% understandable that life sometimes throws a curveball, so we can practice this breathing method when we can.

Since I started doing this, I've been able to sleep sooner. Even if I cannot sleep quickly, I don't mind because it provides a good opportunity to practice creating slow alpha waves in my brain.

Try this method tonight and see if it works for you.
