Tired of scrolling through your phone until your eyes burn?
Do you hit the bed at 11 PM but still lie awake till 1 or 2 AM?
Dr. Xiao Wu has rounded up two game-changing tricks to shut your brain off instantly. You can give them a try tonight!
🍎 Trick 1: Fruit Aroma Therapy
Place a few fragrant fruits like apples, citrus, or guavas by your bedside.
Take a few deep breaths of the scent right before bed.
The compounds in the fruit peels can stimulate your brain to produce sleep-inducing alpha waves. This will melt away tension and anxiety, and lull you into drowsiness in no time.
👀 Trick 2: Simulated Syncope Method
This one is my personal go-to—it never fails! I fall asleep in less than 30 seconds every time.
Close your eyes and roll your eyeballs upward as hard as you can.
Repeat a few times until you start to feel lightheaded.
This mimics the rapid eye movement sleep state. It sends a clear signal to your brain that you’re ready to sleep, triggering your body’s sleep mechanism in a flash.
To all my insomniac friends—grab some fruits and try the eye trick tonight. Trust me, it works like a charm!
