I got automated blackout shutters, auto raise in the morning so I wake up with the sun and its total pitch black at night. Best 250$ I've ever spent, combine that with a nice mattress and then the real snoozing begins.
@@idontcare9041 Is this: "Rouladen is a traditional German dish featuring long, thin strips of meat slathered with mustard and filled with bacon, onions, and pickles." what you were referring to? If so that's quite the random interjection/side tangent simply because it is spelled similarly.
@@smeetsnoud1 I mean, if it's colder outside at night then that should be when your house is losing the most heat and the radiator needs to run the most.
About the heater. Those are from central heating, meaning it circulates hot water through all of these around the house (one "central" heating in the basement for 50 apartments in a building or more) That's why they can be decades old, because it's simply a chunk of metal designed to dissipate the water's heat. You upgrade the central heating every 30-40-50 years whenever you want or need to, but don't need to change a thing about the "radiators" in the apartments.
Number one tip for sleeping, keep the bed for bedding, not for relaxing. That’s what couch is for, let your couch do the couching. Your brain likes patterns, if the only time you get on your bed you sleep, your brain will associate it with sleeping and nothing else, but if you relax on it, your brain won’t do that making it harder to flip the sleep switch. Also for alarms, a cheap electric watch that vibrates is always better than a loud sound.
Rich man thinks everyone has a couch. The only furniture I own is a bed of nails, of course I'm going to relax on it, it's all I have. Privileged much?
@@Kosher3864 well it doesn’t really have to be a couch, could be just a chair. Also I hope things get better for you. Edit: You could also limit yourself to only sitting on the bed that could also work.
I have been addicted to phone in bed since I was 11. I'm now 20 and basically every single night have watched RU-vid to pass out. I recently spent a week without it, instead wearing a manta sound sleep mask, it was pretty easy. You just have to sit in pure boredom and your own thoughts. For me that's torture. It is easy, and after a few days it's easier and easier, but I have a lot of bad thoughts. After a while I literally forgot that I was trying to stay away from it and just sorta went back to old habits. Still just watch RU-vid to sleep now. At least I know I can do it without. It is what it is blud.
If you want good sleep, try these: - Sleeping on your left side, stomach acids won’t be giving you heartburn or indigestion at night. - Black out natural light and sound, especially if you sleep during the day. - Weighted blanket aids restlessness, keeps you grounded. If not weighted, then a thicker blanket. - Dimmed, ambient red light balances your hormones and aids falling asleep quicker. - If you’re sleeping in a corner, place a second pillow against the wall. - Avoid tucking yourself in like a burrito, crease your blanket to create a vent for airflow.
Level up your shower game and buy a towel warmer. It's like an electronic trashcan looking thing you shove towels in to warms them up hot. I will toss my hoodies and pants in them before going out into the cold weather lmao
Interesting, an oversized air fryer for towels, ha. Only previously seen the wall mount towel rod hanger kind, the bin/bucket kind is probably way more efficient, but harder to fit into the bathroom space unobtrusively. Maybe someone makes an in wall unit like an older house laundry shoot that just doesn't go anywhere and gets warm. Orrrr, stay with me here, how about a movie style behind-a-painting hidden wall safe with a heater plopped inside, then your towels would be warm, hidden, and not able to be easily stolen... Hmm.........
@@msytdc1577 got mine as an xmas gift because my family hates me using the dryer to warm my towels for every shower haha. It was so worth it. Now It's a key essential to apartment living haha
I was like chat until about 3 or 4 years ago until my momma gave me blackout curtains 😅 and it was, pun intended, a night and day difference. It allowed me to get deeper sleep no bullshit.
I only sleep with very dim lightbulbs on when I know I'm gonna get really disturbing nightmares. Idk how but I can tell when I'm going to have one and I make sure to leave dim lights on or else when I wake up it's so depressing that it sucks all of the colour out of the world and everything looks grey and depressing :(
I have to unscrew my light bulb to turn my desk lamp off where my computer is. I don’t have a keyboard that has backlights (saved like 10$) and I got a free lamp off the side of the road. This lamp’s on/off dial broke off….
You know you can buy a replacement inline on/off switch, right? Or if you're that frugal go find a power strip someone has thrown out, tons of those get trashed because they're nasty dirty or the cable is too short or too long or it is the wrong color or whatever.
I love that a few months ago some dude just came into chat going on about how good a freezer shirt was and everyone, including Big A, was shiting on him... and now it's Atriocs whole thing and he swears by it like it's the gospel lmao
Bro I just lay down and sleep after 5secs of closing my eyes. Why all this complicated shit Can relate to the guy though who leaves his light on and then wakes up grumpy an hour later. You're just too grumpy to turn it off
Hey, some of our cave men ancestors were the ones that stayed up to provide security for the tribe, not simpleton layabouts who just crashed whenever they felt like it with zero regard to anyone else's survival, a sleep leach if you will.
I thought Amazon was notorious for employee micro-tracking, like how many items per minute were picked, how many seconds it took per box to pack and tape, etc. How would they miss an employee showing up in their performance metrics as having zero productivity while clocked in?
Its the internal temperature that needs to drop to go to sleep. And heating up your extremities will cool down your core, so having a hot shower will help you go to sleep Source: idk, brain go brrr
Ive slept in all of these conditions and can confirm if ur REALLY TIRED like truly tired none of these conditions are a deal breaker: Lights on Lights off but on the floor Lights on and on the floor Fully clothed both in regular polo shirt and jeans Fully clothed with shoes on in bed Seatsd upright with a light on Reclined in my office chair with a light on Bent over my desk also light on On the floor but now in winter clothes (winter coat hoodie shirt jeans and sweat pants) both with and without shoes Hell i once fell sleep on a goddamn ottomon In the trunk of my car with 2 dogs in the middle of one of the worst winters my city has had Trust me if u need perfect conditions to go to sleep ur not tired go hit the gym or play some video games for a few hours till ur really sleepy Also when i say on the floor it was both hardwood and carpeted (but not new soft carpet old worn shitty carpet) I slept in all of these conditions when at my lowest moments in life except the office chair i still do that sometimes im to tired to get to bed
If someone need to be like really tired to go to sleep, it's because you are not in good terms with your mind. Being tired, shuts you off when a little comfortable. However when not, you have to listen your mind and feel your enviroment; and even with that be able to relax. Apart from the mindfulness, you should never be tired to the point that your body shuts you down without permission. That's like drugs, a lack of self-control.
