Why Fall Asleep Quickly?
On the battlefield, if you don't sleep, you will quickly feel exhausted, make wrong decisions, feel burdened by your mission, and become a liability.
How to Do It?
Principle: Gradually relax your entire body, avoiding thoughts.
- Stretch your body
- Relax your facial muscles, slow everything down
- Relax your upper body
- Lower your shoulders as much as possible
- Take a deep breath, then exhale slowly, releasing all tension
- Relax your arms. If they are not relaxed enough, tense them first, then let them relax
- Relax your forearms
- Relax your hands
- Relax your legs
- Think of nothing at all
- Keep your mind calm. You can do this by holding a still image in your mind
- If that doesn't work, keep saying "don't think... don't think... don't think" for at least 10 seconds
