You are the biggest enemy of your own sleep.

Our current bittersweet relationship with our sleep hasn’t had a long history.

The traditional techniques used in getting sleep aren’t much effective any longer and our sleep techniques need to evolve as rapidly as our life style has, in order to cope with it.

Let’s imagine a running washing machine. Let’s imagine the dirty clothes in the machine and how the liquid detergent is getting the dirt out of clothes and draining it to the waste outlet. Now imagine brain surrounded by a large pool of cleaning fluid called CSF (cerebrospinal fluid). Imagine CSF pulling the wastes from inside the brain and draining it into the blood, which routes it to the waste outlets. CSF clears waste many times faster in sleeping brain than in the waking brain.

Tonight is going to be a big night, like any other night, because certain 10 million Americans will not be able to sleep well tonight.

Our faster than ever evolution has resulted in our undermining certain incredibly important aspects of humanity—like our sleep.

If the world leaders can afford a 7 hours sleep, most of us probably can too.
