Protocols

7 protocols
ProtocolBeginner

Wind-Down Protocol

A 90-minute pre-sleep sequence that systematically shuts down every stimulus keeping you awake. Light, temperature, screens, stimulation — each one gets addressed in order. This is how you fall asleep in under 10 minutes.

Daily / 90 min before bed
Open
ProtocolBeginner

Sleep Temperature Protocol

Your body needs to drop 2–3°F in core temperature to initiate deep sleep. This protocol uses your smart mattress and room climate to engineer that drop automatically — cooling aggressively at sleep onset, holding cold through deep sleep, then warming before your alarm.

Daily / ongoing
ProtocolBeginner

Caffeine Cutoff Protocol

Caffeine has a half-life of 5–6 hours. That means a 2pm coffee still has 50% of its caffeine in your blood at 8pm. This protocol structures your caffeine intake so it fuels your morning without wrecking your night. Simple rules, massive impact on sleep quality.

Daily / ongoing
ProtocolIntermediate

Jet Lag Reset Protocol

Your circadian clock shifts about 1 hour per day naturally. A 6-hour time zone change takes nearly a week to adjust — unless you force the reset. This protocol uses light, temperature, and meal timing to collapse that adjustment period to 2–3 days.

3–5 days per trip

ProtocolBeginner

Sleep Consistency Protocol

The single most impactful sleep variable isn't temperature, darkness, or supplements — it's consistency. Same bedtime, same wake time, every day, including weekends. Your circadian rhythm can't optimize around a moving target. This protocol locks it in.

Daily / ongoing
ProtocolBeginner

Evening Sauna Wind-Down

A short, moderate-heat sauna session 2–3 hours before bed triggers a deeper core-temperature drop afterward — one of the strongest sleep interventions available. The heat is the stimulus; the rebound cooling is the payoff. Timed correctly, this is worth more than any sleep supplement you can buy.

20 min / 2–3 hours before bed
ProtocolIntermediate

Grounded Sleep

Sleep with a direct electrical connection to the earth. A conductive bed mat wires to a copper grounding rod driven into the dirt outside — bypassing the building's electrical ground entirely. The theory is contested; the practice is cheap and the proponents are unusually consistent in their results. Try it for 30 days, track HRV, decide for yourself.
