Rían here. The research shows that there's a way to make sleep the most productive 9 hours of your day. With this PDF you'll learn how to maximize your potential for flow by just sleeping properly.
Sounds way better without adobe enhancement. Way crispier and more clear. More understandable.
Is it true that the sleep time is actually 7h not 8h ? I heard it in a podcast that was about sleep
@@B1G.H Isn't it 10 hours?
21:35 In what form is the nicotine consumed and where to get it?
@@nekemli2622 i actually don't know
Watching a 30 minute video on why sleep is important while being sleep deprived at the same time.
lol so true
Sigh
Step 6 don't start watching a video about good sleep at 0:15
W algorithem
Y’all need a dopamine detox. Y’all’re like, “This video is so long,” or “The intro is so long.” Come on. Seriously? You’re better than that.
Nah, he's legit annoying. I've watched 8 hour and 5 hour videos and felt engaged to continue until completion. With this guy, I've watched 45min and at the end, I think, that could've been 15min, easily.
I've spent the last 4 months or so investing a lot of time and money into improving my sleep and you summed it all up in a free, 30 minute video. For me, this is confirmation that I'm on the right track. I just hope others see the value in what you've compiled.
Could you share what changes you made that had the biggest impact on your sleep and the quality of it?
I See it For Sure, I Think People just Lack a Good Attention Span to Comprehend the Magnitude of what he is Saying.
More like a 15 minute video
Beautifully said! I’m 40+ years of thinking & doing sleep wrong. I need 30 mins, listened to over and over again to let this sink in. When his mentor said “listen, everybody knows sleep is important”. I was like - No, no we don’t. ;) didn’t
I like your videos, but I think they take too long to get to the point. The ideas are good, but they are burried in a sea of useless fluff.
never agreed with a comment more, the babbling kills me
Disagree, lot of good stuff here
exactly… im out here looking for the timestamp to the actual thing…
Yes the video is long and there is some repetition, but i think i like it better as it gives more attempts to get the concept behind it right, if it were a 10 min video with straight to the point arguments and explications, i will not like it as much and find it less useful I think.
Thats my opinion
Good things take time
The biggest tip and fundamental which I was a little dissapointed this video didn't include is to try to sleep in full sleep cycles. Given if you follow these tips it may happen naturally but it is very helpful to know. On average 90 minutes(1.5 hours) is a full sleep cycles so stay asleep for 1.5/3/4.5/6/7.5/9/10.5. You will wake feeling well rested. for example, if you sleep in for an extra 20 minutes, you will start going into a new sleep cycle and if you wake yourself up again after snoozing for 20 minutes, you will be even more tired than if you would've just woken up and started your day after a full sleep cycle instead of going back to sleep and quiting sleep mid cycle. More sleep can feel like less in some quantities, just saying.
Yep. My sleep tracker app can adjust the alarm to wake me at the end of a cycle. You can also not use alarms once you're on a schedule. The body won't sleep more than it needs
that's what I heard, but 7.5. seems too less, and 9 too much.
maybe regular 7.5 would be enough, with a balance lifestyle (not overdoing it)
Huberman last series with matt walker covered why attempting to time the sleep cycle wasn’t a high priority you should check it out
@@derrickkuhn9962 Thanks for the share, I'll check it out:)
This is a request to the public that please support this channel it is a gold mine for our health. Thank you so much Rian sir for explaining this concept in such an amazing manner, may god bless you sir 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hey Rian, I have never heard of your channel before but this is the first video that got recommended to me and you really got me to think about my sleep and how I schedule and prepare myself for it each night. I am 21 years old and after watching I was shocked by the fact that I have never, ever in my life got consistent and healthy sleep especially after things like smartphones and television became normal and mandatory so fast. I usually go to bed after a cup of coffee with ocasionally the lights still on because I’m just so tired of being awake all day.
This video actually inspired me.
Thank you!

thanks, saved me 30 minutes when I'm already tired
Every one of your videos I’ve watched just looks like you put so much work into it. Super appreciate what you’re doing man.
This video just came when I passed half of my day at work feeling miserablely tired, stressed, overwhelmed with all the tasks i need to finish and that i cant handle because my very low concentration... Thank you 😊 this video is GOLD
million subscribers hell ya you got this.
i just watched all your videos super helpful and idk how to say it but it has significantly changed me.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart
how many time will you change the thumbnail
rian: yes
Fr but somehow it attracts
The video title too
@@MartinsBaklansJr.yes cuz you think its new video but its just another “dressing” of the same fastfood
optimize optimize optimize
Each time I see this dude on my feed. I make a pause, and I feel uncomfortable... Uncomfortable because I know that this dude goes 100% on everything, and exposes me, that I'm not doing enough. Do not misinterpret me, this is phenomenal, I love it. It challenges the way I live so that I can improve.
I've just discovered your channel and after watching a few of your videos I find them so inspiring. I sleep straight away but wake up exhausted and this video helps me realise I'm doing so much wrong with my routine 😊
Thank you for sharing all of your personal experience and thorough research. We all need better sleep to chase the dream 😴 ✨️
Great video..i started watching your videos just three weeks ago and have been through everything on your channel. Its really high value content that you put in. Thanks much!!
I;ve been watching most of your videos, but this video really make it clear on sleep. I am making the change to sleep consistent and well to improve it.
For years I was figuring out what was the reason for my inconsistency but I am shocked to listen that the thing I neglected more (sleep)is the reason for my inconsistency
Thank you man ❤️
I love these videos. They're so inspiring and useful. Thank you!!
Thank you for this episode!!! Exactly what I needed ❤ I was just contemplating this issue last night and this was surely spot on with my current situation
I used to be someone (as an autistic person) who needed the room to be pitch black and everything to be dead silent, to the point where I wore earplugs for decades. When my husband left me for a younger woman, I couldn't sleep. The only way I could get to sleep was to listen to an audiobook. Now a year later I still can't sleep without that soothing voice. Should that book end, the silence wakes me up.
Same. Audiobooks with the timer set to 30 minutes is Gold.
This is one of the most useful videos on the internet
I have been watching your content for over 2 months. I have benefited greatly from reduced stress to getting more work done in less time. This is amazing stuff. Only thing I struggle with is remembering to do all of it. I definitely have spurts of emphasis on one thing(like work compression) but will forget other things like flow before food. A video that shows how all the content you have shared works out practically for the corporate athlete might be helpful soon. Either way, I will keep at it. :-)
Thanks, I was never able to pinpoint the exact reason for why my sleep always sucked. But I think I now know
Thank you. I recently had purposefully studied all of your videos taking notes, doing activities, and applying them into my life. This one on sleep also ;)
It would be nice if US High Schools could see this
I arrive at home at 5:30. just be thankful US😁
you should come to India, I barely got 3.5 hours of sleep during my high school and junior college🤣
@@jaydensaji7715 brother let's just say we're blessed and move on🤣
I started to notice my REM sleep after I got a sleep monitor, when I got more REM sleep I was able to cope with stress much better. Conversely when I had an emotional argument with someone my REM sleep was non existent for a couple of nights. I have surmised that the argument increases cortisol making me feel terrible. This has caused me to restrain my reactions to stressful situations by getting away from them or just not reacting. Thanks for this video
You’ve heard of the 4 hour work week but have you heard of the 8 hour work night?
good one😂
Heard of the 25 hour work day?
@@AEONIC_MUSIC no, but I did the 90 day quarter last year and it was game-changer.
Loved the video, I’ve been focused on quality sleep for about 5-6 years. It’s true, the 5 steps are critical and one step missed but most important is exercise! If I burn at least 1000. Cal, get at least 45 min of moderate exercise, eg: brisk walk, short run 3-5K or equivalent my sleep data numbers go to 100% - often with 3-4 hours of deep sleep in 8 hours. If you’re physically tired your body will respond with tissue repairing deep sleep I believe. Thanks for organizing this important instructional vid for sleep! It was awesome. 👍💪💯
I'm subscribed from probably third video lol around 10-20k totally love your work, can't comprehend this all knowledge is free!
Honestly this is the best video about sleep, anyone who takes action with this will be making 4x the amount of money they are making right now if they follow all of this rules.
Thank you so much!!! It is the best video about sleep that I’ve ever seen! You really motivated me, I want to change my habits)
Honestly everyone saying you fell off but the content is still genuinely informative a lil repetitive but I get the message and it’s a valuable one
Important things bear repeating.
Yet again another insanely high quality informative video.
Finally what I was waiting for 😄
just to add on for min 4 onwards regarding the ceiling of exhaustion.
it is good, but you do need to hit sometimes, that ceiling of burning days, and then fully recover back
Sounds familiar ? Struggle, Release, Flow and Recover.
the main point isnt to just [ Burn sleep for the sake of burning ] but, strategize, losing your sleep for something exciting, something that keeps you going.
we all have that childhood or adult phrase, hanging out with friend throughout the night, and just played, drink or for us geeks, house LAN party.
we pushed we angered and we gathered, but we remembered those late nights, and werent in vain.
It is still important to have proper sleep hygiene as MPMD and other folks would point out, but its equally so, to have sleepless nights, on safe days where you can do all nights, to train the brain and body.
however alot of folks failed at the Recovery state, after [ flow ] / [ sleep deprevation moments ]
the saying, what almost kills you, makes you fking stronger.
remember, all the videos Rian has put out, and it will make sense to link back to other authors of the sleep and stress domain, its almost taichi zen like balance
That is one of the best videos I have ever seen. If you change the thumbnail you will get a million plus views. If I were you I would look at some videos on how to create awesome thumbnails! Everyone should see this videos. Great job on it ! Very good info
thanks sweetmannn u re a gem 🤍💎can you make video about how do we manage our performance anxiety?
Watching this an hour past my bedtime
This came RIGHT ON TIME Rian! Thanks fam!🙌🏾🔥 I’m curious, is there any research on listening to sleep audios on low volumes like guided sleep hypnosis for subconscious reprogramming? Does it help or hinder sleep quality? And I mean reprogramming for things like Mindset and all that. 😁
Top tip for sleeping with earplugs - invest in a pair of custom silicone ones. They're so much better than standard earplugs with a properly snug fit, having tried many before. I got myself some about 6 months ago and they're brilliant. Over the long haul they'll be cheaper as they last at least 4 years for a little under £100 here in the UK. Consistently using reusable ones will cost more, won't be anything like as effective and are worse for the environment. Trust me, you'll be glad you did.
love your unironed shirt 🧘♂️
rian doris, my favourite !!
agreed
I love this man❤
A sad reality is that this video is worth much more than any other video in this platform but the outcome of it is not as much as it need or should be
11 minutes of intro. F
Summary:
Go to bed
- deaf (min sound)
- blind (min light)
- cold
- hungry
All at the same time each night.
In the thumbnail there are 5 points. What's the 5th? Don't wanna watch 30+ min of video. Thx
@@morom996 Last one is only sleep and sex in bedroom nothing else
@@morom996 you may see the summary points here in the comments but trust be you'll forget it and not understand it's importance. I say it's worthwhile to watch the full video. The reasons he explains may even fuel more inspiration for better sleep
@@morom996cut fluid intake 90 minutes before bed, stay in bed only when you're sleepy
Exact to the point. I was naturally doing many of the things you mentioned at the period I was sleeping regularly. I only mind fast-paced nature of the video, with all the visuals, and information overload, it's hard to keep track of things and remember them afterwards
Pretty sure it was sleep deprivation that made me go crazy and have a mental breakdown which caused me to drop out for a semester 😂
need this for exam season lol
I've always known how important the need for good sleep was, and in the military you notice it even more because of almost randomized schedules for tasks to be done. But it's refreshing to see a little more perspective on the matter. Great video.
Ok Rian, I got out of bed. Thanks for the motivation.
Awesome timing though, I’ve been working on my sleep cycle for about 3 weeks. Finally waking up a the time I want to, but your video made it click on why it’s worked the last 2 days, I have to spend more than 8 hours in bed to make it work.
Thanks man, your videos are some of my favorites!!
Thank you Rian Sir
I used Rian's techniques to watch this entire 31 minute video in my sleep, leaving more time for productive work during the day.
Works like a charm!
Ive been chromicaly udnerslept for most of my life until I realized what I needed is to go to sleep earlier. Most pf my life was just gaming and one year of work and 3 years of failing at a bachelors degree. Until I fixed my sleep i had no ability to prioritize anything that wasnt imposed on me externally. Hence not achieving anything in past 6 years
Good stuff thanks 🙏🏾
Can you please also make video on how to tackle maladaptive day dreams during studying?
Keen for the book!
Excellent video
best sleep tip i ever received was to not move for 10minutes AT ALL when you want to go to sleep to trick your brain that your body is asleep.
I've been saying this for years
Hey Rian, What sleep tracker do you use, im on a bugdet and i really have to find something to make my flow state better. Love your videoes.
Perfect, so you make a 30 minute video for me to watch instead of going to sleep
Thank you.
Thanks for this, the content is cream, although the 30 fps makes it Hard to Watch
Feels crazy being this early
You can set the RGB values on monitors to reduce blue light all the time.
That should help (he mentioned using night light apps for this ). Keep in mind though, the backlight of our LED screens can have other qualities, like flicker, that are hard on our eyes.
Here's the notes I took on the video if anyone would like them
* Flow is an optimal state of consciousness where we feel and preform at our best
* Sleep could be considered the opposite side of the coin sleep is an optimal state of consciousness where we repair, rebuild, and recover to make peek performance a possibility
* Sleep is not a gap in your productivity or an inconvenience its an extreme form of productivity that you're just not awake to observe
* Your energy is replenished, tissues and nerve cells are regenerated, memories are organized for accessibility, learning capacity is increased, lower levels of depression and anxiety, your motor skills are enhanced, and shield off your chances of cancer, dementia, heart attacks, stroke, and diabetes.
* Like flow, sleep is a high performance state
* Good sleep makes it so you can shatter your, "exhaustion ceiling"
* Prioritize sleep the same way you prioritize work
* Sleep fuels ambition
* Sleep is a skill that can be trained
* treat sleep as a skill to be mastered
* Insufficient REM compromises our capacity for concentration, which makes REM indispensable for flow
* Make sleep fixed or non negotiable
* build your life around sleep, don't build sleep around your life
* To get the optimal 8 hours of sleep you need to spend 9 hours in bed
* Sleepiness and Wakefulness are two independent functions and inconsistent sleep timing can lead to, "social jetlag"
* Social Jetlag is the misalignment between your bodies natural sleep wake cycle, internal clock, and timing demands of your work or social schedule
* Train yourself to got to bed and wakeup at the same time every night
* never spend time in bed after you wake up
* try to make your new schedule as close as you can to what you would be doing naturally
* Go to bed deaf using white noise or moldable ear plugs
* Go to bed blind which leads to less fragmented sleep, deeper sleep and improved concentration the following day. You can wear a sleep mask or use black out curtains and electrical tape on any light.
* Try to get sunlight in the morning to reset your circadian rhythm and avoid artificial or any light within an hour of going to bed
* Sleep cold, around 15-19 Celsius or 60-70 Fahrenheit ideally it should be a bit uncomfortable when you wake up
* A cooler environment helps to slow metabolic rate, reduce body temperature, and promote sleepiness
* If you sleep with someone else who prefers it warmer consider investing in a bed that can have different temperatures on either side. While it is pricey the average human spends 26 years of their life asleep.
* Go to bed hungry, and try to eat 4 hours before you sleep
* eating close to bed can cause digestive problems like heart burn, indigestion, acid reflux, etc.
* Its okay if not good to go to sleep a bit hungry.
* Try to avoid caffeine and alcohol within 10 hours of going to bed
* and don't consume nicotine within 2 hours of bed
* Keep your bed for sleep and sex
* You want your body to associate your bed with sleeping not bingeing Netflix, being on calls, or anything stimulating
* If you try to sleep and feel awake get out of your bed and maybe even the room till you feel tired
* The goal is to go to bed Deaf, Blind, Cold, Hungry, at the same time, and only sleep in your bed.
* From 26:20 onwards he talks about smaller sleep optimization including supplements and other routines
I wouldn't suggest not watching the video and just using the notes these are just to help remember what happened in the video.
brother when I sleep for around 2 to 3 hours a day, I feel happy, motivated and stuff...even though I can function well, I don't know what is happening in the background(risk of some illness stuff...) and also I don't know weather I could've reached even more productiveness if I had slept more hours.
There is a research or something about people who only need a few hours(less than 5) to operate in a normal condition.
keep in mind, when I sleep less, I become more productive and active but "fear" I could be damaging my health and when I sleep more, I feel fatigue and sometimes unproductive.
talk to me Brother😁
thank you for the awesome contents too and am still waiting on that "flow state for students".
keep up the good work and I hope you can help me with my case. thanks
You're a fuckin genius. Keep kicking ass my g.
Hell yeah!
What sleep tracker do you use or recomend?
Hi brother,what about stress and fatiuge management?They NEED a Whole vid
Absolutely LOVE this Irishman!
Edging goated
Does breaking the cycle have long lasting effects? I love staying up late friday/saturday so if I just accept Sunday as a lazy day and fix it Sunday night (maybe by supplementing melatonin) would that be fine?
Careful with this advice if you‘re an insomniac…too many interventions and a tracking/controlling approach just foster the false idea that wakefulness is the enemy, thus driving your sleep anxiety ✌️
Watching this at 3:15 AM
Hi, I've been diagnosed with narcolepsy, what advice do you have for narcoleptic individuals?
Rian please make videos every week they are like 19 day s later please
What about blue blocking glasses like Swanwick. I've got day and night glasses.
I have swim practice nearly every night from 7:00 to 8:30, and I go to sleep at 9:30. I usually eat something before bed to refuel my muscles. Should I stop doing this, or should it be fine?
Not finished watching yet but do you know anything about zoning out? Like could there be an art too it that let's the mind rest so it can be dialed in
Best app for track the sleep?
The timing couldnt be better 🥹
I sleep too much, 10-12 hours, and even after that, i feel groggy and tired, my head feels heavy, but also floaty with it weird tinge of migraine. this would continue throughout the day, i feel as though i physically cannot do anything productive at all, possibly it's same aftermath of not getting enough sleep. The hard part is that i have to be in at school at 8:30, my sleep pattern always shifts, i end up waking around the interval of 11am-1pm on the weekends and 7:30am during the weekdays. I always feel sleepy no matter what, on either 4, 8, 9 , 10, or even 14 hours whole hours of sleep. it feels though i never have the time to accomplish anything, days go by so fast, and it feels as though it's been a week when it's nearly the end of a month. I am stuck, and not sure what to do in pursue to fix this.
Hey, I'm hear you about your struggle with sleep patterns and feeling groggy despite getting 10-12 hours of sleep. It seems like balancing your school schedule and sleep habits is tough for you right now.
Understanding the four phases of the sleep cycle, occurring in 90-minute intervals, can improve your rest and wakefulness. Waking up between cycles may leave you feeling groggy, and going back to sleep could disrupt brain activity without a clear purpose, affecting the balance of neurotransmitters and hormones that regulate your sleep-wake cycle.
Engaging in movement, curiosity, and deep breathing upon waking can help you get into a flow state and tackle challenging activities. Recognizing your true self and taking time to breathe and reflect can bring purpose and meaning to your actions.
Establishing a consistent sleep routine, even on weekends, can regulate your body's internal clock. Prioritizing relaxation techniques before bedtime, such as deep breathing or meditation, may also enhance your sleep quality.
Balancing challenge and skill by incorporating practices like Yoga and Qigong can boost focus, energy, and productivity. You may benefit from intermittent fasting and a high fruit/rawvegan diet to improve your sleep quality and health. Intermittent fasting can help regulate your sleep patterns and promote better rest, while fruit provides essential nutrients and carbohydrates for energy.
In times of overwhelm, remember the 80/20 rule: 80% of results arise from 20% of efforts. This can help you prioritize tasks and focus on what truly matters. Additionally, the Law of Three indicates that three key tasks on your to-do list are likely to deliver 90% of your desired outcomes.
Know that you're not alone in this. Take care and feel free to reach out if you need further support.
Get checked for narcolepsy
I was like this when I was young. It can improve over time. To get more time in the day try to wake up with alarm earlier. Or, which i havent tried, use modafinil.
I completely agree with almost all of this, but I find going to bed hungry keeps me awake. I just need to be NOT hungry, not in any way full. Empty stomach is fine
Alcohol is trickier. Roughly one hour to clear your bloodstream per serving, roughly two hours for potential metabolites. Though ethnicity, biological sex, and age all influence this. Having a beer or glass of wine with dinner won't harm you. Having three will
Nothing is wrong with going his way on this, and maybe for achieving flow state it's necessary. But on Friday, in the evening, I'm having my one beer for the week without guilt :)
And yes, I average 1-2 drinks a week. I drink for taste, not for the buzz
Hey Rian, I see that you offer flow training. Do you also do anything with email marketing?
How do you guys wake up with earbuds on? Do you need an alarm?
Why would anyone want insane sleep? I want a nice rest as I sleep. The last thing I want is insanity while I sleep.
Would it still be enough if I go to bed at 9:30 and wake up at 5?
I feel the best when I sleep 6 hours. If I sleep 8 hours, I feel like I need more sleep a few hours later. I'm wondering if maybe some of us shouldn't get 8 hours and just get what makes us feel better?
Thoughts on melatonin to establish a proper night routine?
And all you need to implement this good sleep routine is to leave your work 2 hours earlier every day.
Brown noise is better. Gummi silicone earplugs gotcha
Omg could this be?!
Hey Rian , very good video . I can do better editing in your videos which can help you to get more engagement in your videos . Pls lmk what do you think ?
Does anyone have any tips on how to set my alarm if I have a little brother in the room who wakes up from it?
The strange thing for me, about red wine:
- if I drink it at lunch, it gives me laziness and a bit of desire to sleep, just after it.
- if i drink it at night, it makes me awake, disturbing my sleep time after.
Isn't that weird?!
Haha that happens to me with showers lol we all have weird things haha
How do I wake up on time with ear plugs?
short sleep,short life ..the paradox of life 🎉
