Good Sleep and Not Dying Too Soon Tip
Regular sleep is a stronger predictor of mortality risk than the amount of sleep you get.
Nature built you to operate most efficiently and therefore most healthy when you are in rhythm.
This newer study of over 60,000 people shows people with more irregular sleep patterns have higher risk of premature mortality & that SLEEP REGULARITY is a stronger predictor of mortality risk than sleep duration.
You gotta start trying to go to bed and wake up at the same time every night, or according to this study at least within an hour of the same time every night.
Just think about what it would be like for your sleep patterns if we didnt have artificial light and screens to extend the day.
You would fall asleep about an hour or two after sunset and wake up an hour or so before in the twilight prior to sunrise.
I understand for the vast majority of you this is impossible to do. You need to use light and screens at night.
So hack it as much as you can to remove all the circadian stimulating strong blue and green light or wear my favorite blue light blocking glasses linked below and try to create a habit of getting to bed within an hour of your usual time.
Here are 7 of my favorite blue light blocking glasses. Both cheap and expensive options with video reviews and live spectrometer tests to prove they really block blue and green light.

If you want some circadian friendly lights to use at night you can find some on my amazon page at the link in my bio or use something like a special red "sunset bulb" here: www.bluelightdetox.com/emr
