“Every day begins for me not when I wake up, but when I go to bed, sleep being my number 1 concern. I go to bed around 8:30 pm and wake up the next day at five in the morning, without ever using the alarm ”, he says.
Sleep, Vital to Health
Sleep is vital for slowing down, says the American.
“You have to reformulate your identity in becoming a professional of sleep.”this one tells the following of his youtube channel.
“This means that you will not go to bed when it is convenient for you, or when you have finished the job, or when you have finished spending with your friends. You will set an hour of bed, which you will respect, along with a few healthy habits ”he says.
One of the healthy habits recommended by the American is for people to eat earlier and consume easier foods for the body.
“For example, if your bedtime is 10 in the evening, take the last meal until eight in the evening. Then try seven o’clock in the evening, six o’clock, five o’clock, try to push the last meal time earlier and you will see that your sleep is improving ”Bryan Johnson shows.
The second habit recommended by the millionaire is the formation of a routine of relaxation, before sleep.
“You cannot work until the last minute before bed, then put your head on the pillow and expect to have a restful sleep. The body needs time to accommodate from a high level of energy and agitation to the state of relaxation before sleep. This routine of relaxation can be one hour before bedtime, which you fill with breathing exercises, meditation, read, a walk ”, this shows.
The third habit recommended by him to those who want to have a healthy sleep is to stop the screens one hour before bedtime. He no longer uses the phone, the TV or the laptop, instead his room is illuminated with a red lamp, which helps him to relax.
The human body loves the routine, so maintaining habits to sleep at the same time is beneficial to health, he says.
“If your bedtime is ten in the evening, try to put yourself in bed at the same time or at least half an hour earlier or later. When you deviate from this habit, the body becomes confused and you will no longer have a good sleep ”, this shows.
The fifth habit recommended by Bryan Johnson to people is to avoid incentives for the nervous system, such as caffeine and alcohol before bedtime.
“So if you go to bed around ten o’clock in the evening, the last cup of coffee you can drink before lunch or midday ”he shows.
A second protocol recommended by the American millionaire is the movement, at least 30 minutes of exercise per day.
The temptation to eat exaggerated
Along with sleep and physical activities, diet is equally important for slowing down. One of the habits recommended by Bryan Johnson in terms of diet is that people do not rely on the power of their will, when it comes to food and try to predict and bypass early, for example, the “temptation” to eat at inappropriate hours. or harmful foods.
Another recommendation is to avoid excessive food.
“From my personal experience, I tell you that it is almost impossible to do. Sometimes we cannot control ourselves in ASFTL of moments. I made an existential rule of not consuming food between five in the evening and ten in the evening. It was an extreme gesture I had to do to control my copious meals habits ”he says. Smoking and excess alcohol consumption should also be avoided, adds the millionaire.
The third recommendation of diet is Mediterranean food, based on vegetables, which contains beneficial fats and proteins.
“We live in a society where health is almost impossible, and to control our own behaviors is just as difficult. I know this because I felt hopeless until a few years ago, for this, until I had this system. We want to live in a society where being healthy is the correct way to live. These habits will make you the happiest and healthiest man you have been ”says Bryan Johnson.
