Transform Your Sleep in Just 15 Minutes: The Busy Person

Why Short Sessions Work Better

Studies in habit formation show that shorter, consistent practice yields better results than longer, irregular sessions. Our program leverages this principle with two 7-8 minute sessions daily. The key isn't the duration – it's the consistency and proper technique.

Morning Routine Integration (7-8 Minutes)

During Your Morning Bathroom Routine

  • While brushing your teeth, practice basic tongue positioning exercises
  • Use the mirror to check your progress
  • Combine with your regular grooming routine

During Your Commute

  • Practice breathing exercises while driving
  • Use red lights as position check reminders
  • If using public transit, practice silently during your journey
  • Turn walking time into practice time

Pro Tip: Set your morning alarm 2 minutes earlier to ensure you have time for proper practice without rushing.

Evening Routine Integration (7-8 Minutes)

End-of-Day Practice

  • Use work breaks or commute time
  • Practice during evening TV time
  • Combine with your bedtime routine

Bedtime Integration
