"Above all, do not lose your desire to walk: every day I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness; I have walked myself into my best thoughts... Thus, if one just keeps on walking, everything will be alright."
– Søren Kierkegaard
"Mental health is not a dirty word – we all have mental health like we do physical health, good or ill. But not seeking help at those times when it all seems too much, or we are depressed or anxious, can impact the rest of our lives."
– Prince William

It feels incredible. Gives me the powers of stamina, focus, motivation, discipline and love.
For fun, I made a sleep facts nutrition panel.
The sleep crash course:
1. Final food 4 hours before bed
2. Screens off 60 min before bed
3. Same bed time every single day
4. Light in eyes in am
5. Exercise daily, even if for 20 min
Here’s the key: make these habits non-negotiable in your life.
Build your life around sleep and I promise everything you care about will get better.
