What is 'Military Sleep Technique'?

This technique was developed by the US Navy during World War II. At that time, pilots were prone to making mistakes due to lack of sleep during the stressful conditions of war. This technique was devised to correct their sleep cycle and help them fall asleep immediately. This technique was mentioned in Lloyd Bud Winter's 1981 book 'Relax and Win: Championship Performance'. The basic principle of this method is to completely relax the body and mind, so that you can sleep free from any external thoughts or stress.

How does the technique work?

This technique focuses on gradually relaxing every part of the body and calming the mind. It mainly includes muscle relaxation, breath control and mental visualization. For this you have to follow the steps given below.

First of all, lie down in a comfortable position on your back. Keep your hands and legs straight and leave the whole body loose. Make sure that your body is in a completely relaxed state.

Leave all the muscles of your face loose. This includes the forehead, eyes, cheeks and even the tongue and jaw inside the mouth. Then imagine that all the stress is coming out of your face.

Lower your shoulders as much as possible, as if they are sinking into the bed. Leave the hands loose and keep the fingers loose too.

After this, take a deep breath and release it slowly. While exhaling, completely relax your chest and abdominal muscles. Feel that your chest and abdomen are becoming completely calm and stress-free.

Now focus on your legs. Leave your thighs, knees, calves and feet completely loose. Feel as if your legs have become absolutely heavy and are sinking into the bed.

Now comes the most important step - calming your mind. Try to get all the thoughts out of your mind. If any thought comes, try to stop it for 10 seconds. You can repeat 'don't think of anything, don't think of anything' in your mind for 10 seconds.

If you are not able to calm yourself completely, then imagine a calm and pleasant place. It can be a calm lake, where you are lying under the blue sky. Or imagine swinging on a velvet swing in a dark room. Get lost in this imagination for 10 seconds.

Let us tell you, by practicing this technique, you can really go into deep sleep within minutes. This method will not only help you sleep, but will also reduce physical and mental stress. Its specialty is that it can be used anywhere, be it your bed or anywhere else.

Keep these things in mind

In the initial days, you may not fall asleep immediately. To master this technique, constant practice is required. It is said that after 6 weeks of regular practice, 96% of people are able to do it successfully.

Although this technique can work anywhere, it will still be more beneficial to practice it in a quiet and dark room in the beginning.
