This Military Sleep Method Helps You Fall Asleep In Less Than Two Minutes

The military sleep method claims to put you asleep in two minutes and reportedly works for 96% of people.

A lot of people struggle to fall asleep.

One of the things that might cause the most anxiety is lying in bed with your mind racing and counting down the hours before you have to get out of bed.

The most annoying thing is that no matter how hard you try, sleep only seems to elude you more and more.

However, a military-inspired technique that promises to put individuals to sleep in under two minutes is currently trending on the internet.

Fitness and health influencer Justin Agustin has popularized the military sleep technique.

He says it will put people to sleep in less than two minutes, and what’s even more amazing is that it seems to work for more than 96% of individuals!

People have been sharing their personal experiences in the comments section of Agustin’s TikTok page since he shared the method.

One writes: “I’m a military brat and was taught this. I also had a veteran psychology teacher in college who taught this. It definitely works.”

Another adds: “I’ve got really bad insomnia and nothing works. I get some sleep with a lot of meds, but I never wake up rested. I’m trying this tonight.”

While a third attests: “My mom taught me this and I taught my children. My son has many challenges, and this helps him relax and fall asleep quickly, he’s 9.”

What is the military’s sleep protocol, then?

Well, as reported by Glamour“It was created specifically for soldiers in the US military and is geared to work even in intense environments—like a literal battlefield.”

According to Medium, American track & field coach Lloyd Bud Winter clarifies it in his 1981 book “Relax and Win: Championship Performance.”

More importantly, how do you apply this technique in your own home?

According to Forces, there are six easy steps to follow.

You have to first de-stress your entire face. Shut your eyes. Take deep, deliberate breaths. Then, gradually release every muscle in your face.

 

Then let go of your hands and shoulders. Release any tension in your bicep, forearm, and hand, working down from your shoulders.

Thirdly, let out a breath and open your chest while maintaining a comfortable stance with your arms and shoulders.

After that, you should unwind your legs in the same manner as your arms. Your thigh should come first, then your calf, ankle, and foot.

The next step is to try to completely cleanse your head. Hold a peaceful mental image in your mind’s eye.

If you find that your thoughts are straying, try repeating the phrase “don’t think” for ten seconds at a time.
