Sleep Habits
As a former insomniac, it took me a long time to relearn proper sleep hygiene. I was so used to burning the candle at both ends, I was blissfully unaware (more like too tired and wired to notice), the effect lack of quality sleep was having on my mind and body. It’s still not a perfect practice by any means, especially when there is a weekend session of late night gaming or board games with friends, but my body is trained enough now that when a certain hour strikes, my body gives me cues that I should be getting ready for slumber. That’s the first step, ESTABLISH A TIME FOR BED. I mean bed, not sleep. For me, that is usually between 10 and 10:30 pm, that I’m upstairs, washing my face, brushing my teeth, and getting into bed, prepping my mind and body for sleep. Like our work environment, our Kwoon or training room, whatever place, what our environment is like will influence...
