Your thirty-day protocol

The principle

One layer a week. Sleep first, because everything else depends on it.

Week 1: the foundation, light and consistency

A sleep diary kept every day. A fixed wake time, weekends included, one hour of tolerance. Outdoor light for ten to twenty minutes within an hour of waking. Bedroom at 18 °C, or 64 °F, in complete darkness. Last caffeine eight hours before bed.

Change nothing else. Those four items alone produce most of the result.

Indicator at D7: time to fall asleep falling, morning energy rising.

Week 2: the evening routine and falling asleep

The three-phase evening routine, installed at a fixed time. Brain dump and tomorrow's plan every evening. The self-programming protocol in bed, every evening. The twenty-minute rule applied without exception. Phone out of the bedroom.
