Sleeping less while boosting energy: Hey everybody, it’s Dr. Sam Robbins. Today, I’m going to reveal how you can sleep less, have more energy, and even live longer. I’ll also give you 10 specific ways that you can get a more restful sleep every night and less time, giving you an extra hour or two of free time every day, which is very nice. However, before I continue, please make sure you subscribe to this YouTube channel right now while it’s fresh on your mind because I’ve got some very important videos coming out soon about this topic, and I don’t want you to miss out. Okay, so let’s get started with my own life. You see, most of my life, I’ve been a bad sleeper.
I’m just super sensitive when it comes to sound and light, and any little thing can wake me up, and when I’m awake, I have a very hard time going back to sleep. Basically, my brain is always on, right? I’m either trying to figure out a solution to a problem, or I’m excited about something. And I’ve been like this, I think, my entire life. Now, luckily, I don’t need much sleep. In fact, most of my life, I’ve only needed a bath. I got about six hours of sleep. And if I really optimize my nutrition and exercise, supplements and hormones, I need even less sleep. And the thing is, I wake up feeling pretty good and energized every day. I never, you know, need to set an alarm or anything like that.
And if I get a little tired in the middle of the day, which is normal, I’ll take a quick 15 or 30-minute nap, and that’s all I need to get back to 100% energy. However, something in the back of my mind would always keep, you know, telling me that, hey, this isn’t healthy, right? You should be sleeping at least seven or eight hours or more. That’s what everyone tells me. So, I’ve always been obsessed with sleeping more because I thought it was good for me. And even though I really never needed it, you know, I thought in the back of my head that, you know, that lack of sleep was probably aging me more, or maybe I’m going to get sick. However, the opposite is true.

Research now shows that people who sleep more actually die sooner than those who sleep less. In fact, recently, there was an analysis of 16 separate sleep studies covering over more than 1. 1 million people. Now, what they discovered is that 30% of people who slept more than eight hours a night died earlier than those who slept six hours. There have been other similar studies stating that sleeping eight hours or more is actually worse for your health for a variety of reasons, such as increased inflammation, cytokines, lack of movement, and a change in your hormones. So, okay, great. Sleeping less is better and healthier for us, and having an extra couple hours a day is even better. But what do you do when you need more sleep, right?
When you can’t seem to function in only six hours? When you have a hard time getting out of bed in the morning? Well, you know, Arnold Schwarzenegger jokes about this and says, ‘Sleep faster,’ right? But, you know, however, the real question is, why do some people need more sleep than others? And how can you sleep less? And still have more energy? Well, the real reason is that healthy people need less sleep, and that has to do with their health. You see, when your body’s healthy, it’s fixing everything in less time. You’re more efficient, and you have better quality of sleep. Now, unless you’re growing, right, or you’re below the age of 20 when everything is still growing, you don’t need as much sleep. When you’re not healthy, your body is slow to recover.

Because your body is lacking in nutrients, or your hormones aren’t optimized, or you’re doing the wrong things, such as you’re, you know, eating the wrong foods, you’re not exercising; you’re going to bed late and throwing off your circadian rhythm, and so forth. So, what you want to do is optimize your health so you can repair and recover quicker at night and thus get better quality of sleep. Now, there are lots of ways you can do this, and improving your sleep hygiene is obviously very important. But let me give you the top 10 tips that have made the biggest improvement. In my own personal sleep and energy levels, and let’s start from the very night so that you can get in a good habit.
So, it’s the end of the night; it’s time to get to bed. My suggestion is, first of all, you need to stop using all electronic devices, or at least dim the light on everything. This means your computer, your phone, your TV. And I wear these blue blocker glasses about 30 to 60 minutes before bed, because it blocks out the blue light, which keeps you awake. Number two, don’t take sleeping pills. Now, you may sleep longer, but the quality of sleep is less. You don’t get that REM sleep. Not to mention, they cause long-term memory loss and dementia, and again, you wake up groggy. Instead, take things such as magnesium, herbs that help you relax, and maybe, at the most, one milligram of melatonin.

Too much melatonin, which is like three milligrams, makes you groggy in the morning. Number three, try to get to bed earlier, such as 10 p.m., and especially before midnight. This is when your hormones are optimized for sleep. Higher melatonin levels naturally and lower cortisol levels naturally. Number four, you want to make sure your room is dark and preferably around 68 degrees. Cooler helps you sleep better. And again, I do everything to cover everything up, such as I wear eye shades and wear earplugs. Number five, before going to bed, journal or write down what you’ve learned today, that day. And what you’re grateful for. This gratefulness is very important. And if you don’t want to write it down, at least think about it and feel it.
Having a happy mindset before going to bed allows for deeper and more restful sleep because your brain is not in conflict. Number six, when you get up in the morning, have two big glasses of water. And take a total body energy solution, such as Body Brain Energy. This formula gives your mind and body the exact nutrients it needs. It maximizes your energy levels, both physically and mentally. It helps improve cognition and optimizes your brain neurotransmitters so you’re more productive and happier throughout the day. You can get all the details about this below this video in the description area. Number seven, you want to exercise daily, preferably earlier in the day. Most of us simply don’t move enough or even at all.

Exercise also balances out your hormones, and you only need 20 minutes, and even a fast walk daily is great. Next, you want to eat less animal proteins because they slow down your repair. Eat more vegetables, eat more natural foods, and eat more natural whole grains and healthy raw fats for your brain. Number nine, make sure you get some sunlight every day. You know, we’re all indoors far too long, and the sun helps optimize your hormones, such as melatonin and cortisol levels, for deeper sleep at night. And finally, number ten. Don’t obsess. Don’t obsess over your sleep like I had for many years. If you need more, sleep more. If you need less, sleep less. Every day, your body has different stresses, so go with the flow.

However, if you don’t wake up energized most of the time if you’re not full of energy most of the day, if your mind isn’t sharp, if your brain is foggy, and your memory is getting worse, then your body and brain are lacking specific nutrients.
