I didn't sleep well last night.
First I was sore. Then hot. Then cold and it just kept rotating. This makes two nights in a row I haven't slept well. ☹️

How to do one cycle of 4-7-8 breathing:
Let your lips part slightly and make a whooshing sound as you exhale through your mouth.
Then close your lips and inhale silently through your nose. Count to 4 in your head.
Then hold your breath for 7 seconds.
After, exhale (with a whoosh sound) for 8 seconds.
Avoid being too alert at the end of each cycle. Try to practice it mindlessly.
Complete this cycle for four full breaths. Let your body sleep if you feel relaxation coming on earlier than anticipated.
