Matt always finds a reason to reuse that clip of him sprinting and eating, it's great
I wonder: How is that he can run so fast?
Hahahah true!
This is peak productivity.
He's the fastest kid alive 😂
Seen it so many times now .... still smiling every time :D
Matt doesn't use a pillow. He lays his head on his biceps
all jokes aside, Matt you've inspired me so much. I recently started filming self development videos thanks to you. Keep up the great quality 🔥
😂😂 o my goodness
Me too😂
lmfao good one, you've gained a sub
@@paulratiu856 thank you Rudi!!!
Who else is watching this right before bed & losing sleep because of it 😂😂
Me lol
Well I was
here
Also while drinking coffee... 2hrs before bedtime
Literally
3 rules:
1. No caffeine 10 hrs before bed
2. At least 8 hours of sleep (does not mean 8 hours in bed)
3. No screens 1 hour before bed
You're welcome, have a great day :)

Muchas Gracias 🙏
Takeaways:
1. Do not consume caffeine 10hrs before sleep
2. Get 8 hours of sleep, not 8 hours in bed -go to bed 1hr before you want to be asleep.
3. don’t look at screens 1hr before going to bed, 2hrs before “sleep”
4. control the amount of liquid you consume before you go to sleep
5. leave a sleep mask by your bedside for the last hour of sleep
thx so much!
People who do this r always in the comment section. Thx
Matt the type of guy that schedules his dreams 😆😂
Ah shit here we go again.

True, but in my case I go to bed hopeful and wake up in despair lol
I agree! Sleep makes my entire day.
I love the fact is that I find you in every self-development video
God, I see you everywhere!
I highly encourage everybody to read his book. Its very informative and will show you the power of sleep.
No way I'm literally at work asking myself why I haven't been able to sleep well this week and this video pops up.. thanks Matt🙏🔥
that's why I actually clicked on the video so quickly - I usually add videos to my watch later queue and forget about them 😪😪 but I really need this ..
Yes I'm in the same boat. I've been extra tired lately.
love you bro
Swear, I thought the same thing!
Perfect timing 😍
The best investment I’ve ever made is a Bluetooth sleeping mask. Truly has changed my life. 1) It blacks out any possible light and 2) I listen to an audiobook, usually something I’ve already read. On audible you can set a timer for it to stop and I’m gone before the 15 minutes are up.
I’ve been a chronic insomniac for years and this is the only thing that has ever worked for me, it even makes me excited to go to sleep to carry on with the book!
But it's Bluetooth and it's basically on your head which as far as I know is not very healthy
If it works for you, then it's ok.

Hey Kalle big fun from Kenya
Seriously, how do you guys manage that? What kind of melatonin rhythm do you guys even have there? Does everyone go to bed at 12am sharp?

Sunset, during summer? Nope 😅
Bro, just get blackout curtains. Sleeping in a pitch black room is how you gotta do it for optimal, uninterrupted sleep. You'll thank me later.
These are the best! Especially in summer bc it's just too bright outside and I can't sleep well without a black room
It makes it hard to wake up in the morning for me though
@@LivingListed Same here, for me blackout curtains do make it easier to fall asleep, but waking up is hard, first thing I gotta do is hop out of the bed and open the curtains to let the sun wake me up.
@@countach27 I have blackout curtains as well and this is where smart lighting is key. I not only set an audio alarm, but a light alarm too. My lights will slowly fade on 20 minutes before my alarm and I notice I'm noticeably more alert when I finally get out of bed.
@@magrudergrinder23 That sounds interesting, I will look into getting a light alarm
The first rule for a better sleep is don't have cats. And probably children from what I've heard

I'm 28 now, and I've been struggling with insomnia for so many years, mostly because of bad habits. I just read the book Why We Sleep. It was life changing! This is my third week that I've slept every single night of the week (I used to have at least one night a week with 0 hours of sleep).
I'm not sleeping all 7-8 hours yet, but that's my goal. Having slept every single night for the past 21 days is a great start.
Sounds amazing dude. Keep it up!
I seriously love this channel and this guy. He’s productive yet so real it makes me connect with him more

Exercise really helps when it comes to improving sleep - you literally have no energy left and your body is begging for rest.

Thanks I’m just after having an argument
Love the video as usual just wanted to point out though that caffeine can actually have the opposite effect for people with ADHD. And some doctors actually recommend drinking coffee as a relaxer for people with ADHD. I know you said that caffeine affects people in different ways but I figured I would mention that too.
In a time where sleep seems to be so foreign to me, I really needed this video. Thank you Matt for the great content - as always. Looking forward to your next videos.
I could’ve used this 12 hours ago. I was tossing and turning from 2am to 6:30am, and finally fell asleep for 3 hours.
Matt: Don't look at screens within one hour of bedtime

WHEN IN BED- let's work on he new RUclips video cause can't sleep 🤣
That was legitimately helpful. Often I watch your channel because it’s well done, upbeat and thought provoking, but this one was actually needed. Thanks
Watching your videos is very soothing, I love them!
Why We Sleep - is one of my favourite ever books since I read it last year. It's like an encyclopedia on everything that we know about sleep to date. I've recommended it to so many friends since then and every single one of them has agreed that it's changed their life as well.
It's nice that you enjoyed the book, but just be wary of the validity of its factual evidence. I would recommend u read this article:
guzey.com/books/why-we-sleep/
“Why We Sleep” by Matthew Walker was one of the most life changing books I’ve ever read, if you’ve read it I highly suggest you also go listen to Joe Rogans podcast with Matthew Walker, it’s valuable information..
Adding it to my list right now! Thanks.
For whatever reason, Matthew Walker would appear to have intentionally misrepresented studies, omitted important data and in certain cases just completely made stuff up. His book is full of errors intentional or otherwise. I say this as someone who was a big fan of that book. I was disappointed to discover the shoddy nature of his 'scientific' writing.
Just one example alone, in chapter 1, Walker claims that routinely sleeping 6 hours or less per night 'doubles your cancer risk' the actual study shows that the chance of cancer for sleeping for that amount of time is actually closer to 1 percent (you have to round up to get to 1 percent). There are many more examples of his bad science.
guzey.com/books/why-we-sleep/
I didn't like his book. He goes way too often into details about things you just don't care about. Most of the things he mentions you already know if you did a small amount of research beforehand.
Posted this to my wellness facebook group. Thanks for making this, Matt!
Loved this book, glad you reviewed it Matt!

Matt says: Rule No. 1
Me looking at the screen :what it's rule no 2 ,ohh it's because I didn't get enough sleep😄😁😄
Underrated comment
Thank you for making this video, Matt! Being a medical student who routinely used to sleep around 4-5 hours a night, this book completely changed my perspective and sleep has become a priority. It's scary, how little we are taught about the detrimental effect that too little sleep may have on our bodies, and I can't recommend this book highly enough. Dr. Walker does a great job at distilling complex concepts into easily understandable chunks and uses plenty of examples from his practice and studies while also citing all the sources. I appreciate you having taken the time to make a video about this topic
I started watching your channel just to see high quality content. But now I've learned a lot from your videos. Thanks Matt
Rule #3 is big. One of the easiest ways I've improved my sleep is having a timer go off for when I should start preparing for bed. Then, also making sure that once I enter my room, the phone goes off and is only used as an alarm. Having that separation prevents me from staying on my phone for the rest of the night and focus on sleeping tight!
As someone who loves sleep, you'd think I'd go to sleep early
Right!?
Same 😅
Yup lol
Eye mask straps dig into my skin and hurt ... I have found that a simple heavy t-shirt thrown over my face works wonderfully. I simply adjust it above my mouth and the darkness it provides really makes a difference. Also .. in winter ... I have short hair and it keeps my head wonderfully warm too ... I literally cannot sleep without it now ....
Thanks for sharing! Sleep has been a struggle for most people and it is so important for mental and physical health. Good tips!
I remember the period when I wasn't getting a full night of sleep I used to interrupt the night to work for few houres until the sun rise then sleep again. I started feeling an enormous fatigue, Tachycardia,deep under-eye circles and bad mood...it was from that experience when I realised how much sleep was important
Matt: "Rule #1"
Screen: "Rule #2"
Me: "Did I get enough sleep last night?"
I was about to point that out. I seriously can't stop staring at it
Glad to hear that I'm not the only one who developed a videos-to-fall-asleep habit during pandemic.
Anything: *exists*
Matt: Imma need a rule for that
Lately, I’ve been thinking about how crucial sleep is to our immune system, metabolism, learning etc. This thought has been a driver in helping me commit to a healthy sleeping habit. …and thanks for this timely reminder Matt.
Matt: Don't pull all-nighters and get healthy amounts of sleep
Me: who sleeps from 10pm to 10am every day

Me watching this vid at 1:00 am in my bed: 👁️👄👁️
Me, all lights on at 2 am, watching this with a coffee mug: ...
love all of your videos matt
it's like you already know that I have a lack of sleep problem. It's something I havent prioritized and I know it has negatively impacted my work
It’s taken me a while of suffering with sleep but I’ve kinda nailed it for the most part now.
Your bed itself is so important and this took a long time for me to find what’s best for me, I have a pocket sprung mattress lightly topped in memory foam, two 15 Tog Duck down & Goose down feather duvets. (I lay between them for a good sleeping posture as a side sleeper). I use Duck & Goose down because Duck down alone is very hot, Goose down gives a bit more structure. I sleep on OTTY memory foam pillows, just one each side. These are the newest addition and they’re so good. Always slept on feather but these are way better. Support, coolness, hight.. they’re better in every way and one fits the gap between your head and shoulder perfectly, again for a good sleep posture as a side sleeper.
I fall asleep listening to podcasts, this usually gives me near 1 hour of screen off time before bed but also means I’m not bored out my brain.
I have Do Not Disturb set up for between 11pm & 11am so only emergency contacts can wake me up or disturb my sleep if need be. I also use Night Shift (removes blue light from your screen) which helps me get tired.
I also have a sleep mask I use the same as Matt, only in the morning if I have to. I have a South facing window which in the UK means sun all day long.
I track my sleep every night with my Apple Watch and I’ve done this for around a year and a half now, from all that data I have found I’m a 8 hour sleeper. When I wake up it lets me know exactly how much sleep I’ve got. If my mood is bad, mental health is suffering, it’s almost always when I’m behind on sleep.
Rarely drink coffee unless I’ve had to go without sleep, dont drink it daily, everything in moderation.
So yeah, took me a while but I figured myself out when it comes to sleep, then my girlfriend sleeps over and fks it all up 😂
One of the few channels I'm proud watching.. 👍🏻
Really good summary, thanks!

Matt: “I’m sure that so many of you are in the same boat as me right now.”
Me: *watching this in bed right before going to sleep* ...ummm yes 😅
Such simple rules and all of them I have heard before but the way it was presented in this video - by simply giving the why, is excellent. I never do something good for me until I hear the why. *hopes her sleep improves soon*
I’ve been having trouble sleeping lately and this came at the perfect time!
Being in bed for 8 hours and naturally sleeping in about 30 mins is not bad because it is better if we sleep in sleep cycles and one sleep cycle consists of 90 mins each so therefore you get 5 complete sleep cycles which is enough.
When I was chronic sleep deprived, I had social anxiety to a point to where I would avoid interactions with not only people but my friends. Depression was my new identity. Emotionally unstable, lost, very forgetful, hopeless, ate once a day or none, tired all the time, just a total mess of a person. But now sine this lockdown, I was able to make sleep my priority and I felt like a whooooooole new person.
On my first day of QUALITY sleep, I was confused as to where the negative thoughts was. I had more energy, confident in my goals, more sociable, consistent with my eating habits/less craving for junk food, just finally felt like me. So, yea get your QUALITY sleep, and don't sacrifice it for nothing. Still don't know how I function and accomplish things on crappy sleep.
Still going well?
@@jakehemingway9603 Yea, since I've been tracking it, I also see that QUALITY sleep is waaaay important than quantity sleep. Case in point, when I don't do my night time ritual, but still get my 8 hours, I still feel like crap or "normal". BUT when I follow my night time ritual, even if I don't get 8 hours, I still feel great, and able to tackle the day. Major difference that shocked me. The big 1's to get that QUALITY sleep are turn electronics off 2 hours or 1 and a half hours before bed, black out room early, keep it cool. If you can do those 3, you will see a MAJOR difference in how you feel, act, think
I FREAKING LOVE HIS VIDEOS. THEY MAKE MY DAYS/WEEEKS!!

I swear by the Sleep Cycle app. Not sure how it knows when to wake my body up, but that black magic works!
it probably tracks your sleep and doesnt wake you up in your deep sleep.

Matthew Walker quote (00:32) made me scared to the core 😰; my worries demolished by the end of the video 😁! Thanks Matt!
FYI do your own research!! There are other comments noting a source that say the quote is based off a study that actually said 1% increase ... Not 50%
FFA - Thanks for the extra information! Though even increasing your risk of cancer by a further 1% can still be detrimental to health...
@@HistorymadeFun Yes, and everytime you cross the street or drive a vehicle you increase your risk for a serious accident. Yet somehow I doubt that stops you.
FFA: True; I'd like to think I pay a certain increased level of attention toward crossing the road - thanks to Matt, the same goes to sleep now... 😀
Thank you for these recommendations! 👍🏻
Very good timing

@@danialhakimi9740 welcome to the club! 😅
I WAS TODAY GOING TO READ THAT BOOK
Thanks for this video. .I was really need it
Amazing, thanks, Matt!
I stopped using my phone before sleep and first thing in the morning, and I can say it made the biggest difference. what i found extremely helpful is turning off wifi (or data) so i don't get any notifications that could distract me (trust me, if it's something very important, a person will text or call you, so you're actually not missing out on anything). instead, i read 30 mins to 1 hour before sleep, but you can also do other things like solving crossword, drawing, journaling etc.
hopefully someone finds this helpful :)
After I read digital minimalism from Cal Newport, I muted vibration and sound for 95% of my apps. And only some apps even appear in my notifications. Most don't even show up on my lock screen. This has helped me tremendously to cut the habit of reaching for the phone when it vibrates. Calls and messages show up on my smart watch and vibrate the phone. Messengers and communicators don't make a sound. I check them when I unlock my phone. If there is something urgent, people can call me.
Works like a charm.
@@Django45 great tip!
Hello Matt! Given that the sleep cycle is 90 minutes, I've heard it's best to sleep 7.5 or 9 hours a day. Not 8. This way you don't break the cycle and wake up fresh.
Loved your Netflix documentary by the way.
Best
Everyone's cycle is different.
I remember reading a study/ watch a video about different studies, I'm not too sure 😂😂😂. They test different methods of sleep and it's still best to stick with a set sleep schedule: go to bed at the same time and wake up at the same time everyday. Everybody is different and at the end of the day, as long as you wake up and feel rest, thats the most important thing. My fiancé only needs around 6 hours to feel rest while I need at least 7 to actually function normally.
I had an amazing feeling after seeing an ad in Matt's Video
Best RUclipsrs love this Channel keep it up bro
Don't use electronics in bed.
I say as I type this from my bed.
Jokes aside, I know I'm adding value with my videos and would urge you to take a look if you're into self improvement 😊
I swear if Matt has a kid that kid will definitely have the strictest dad
Strict, but in a good way. Also, Matt seems like he’d be a cool, chill dad as much as possible
Great video and excellent advice. I’d add going to sleep reasonably early too. It’s not just how long you sleep for but when you sleep. If you go to sleep at 2am every night but sleep 8 hours, that’s not the same as going to sleep earlier. I always used to sleep 8.5 hours but go to bed late and I always felt tired. I just started going earlier and I feel so much better even though I’m getting the same amount of sleep.
Thanks man for those awesome tips for improving sleep 😴 habits , I will definitely give it a shot.
