This is the method to fall asleep in under 5 minutes
AdviceGet into your sleeping position, preferably on your back, and close your eyes. Now start blinking as fast as you can, without stopping, for 60 seconds only. Aim for 120 plus blinks. Keep track of the time by saying the word Mississippi between each number. That's what I do, at least.
By around the 40 to 50 second mark your eyes will feel tired and start to close in the exact same way they do when you're really sleepy, and your blinking will slow down. That means it's working. There hasn't been a single time this hasn't put me to sleep 2 minutes later.
If it doesn't work and you're still awake a few minutes after, repeat. But 9 times out of 10 you won't need to do it more than once. This beats everything I've done in the past, and I've been doing it for a few weeks now, even after being on my phone in bed for an hour. Just thought I should ungatekeep this. Try it tonight, trust me.
Edit: I don't know why people are finding this hard. Bottom line, blink as fast as you can for 1 minute. That's it.
Just tried this and scared my wife half to death. She thought I was possessed.
Just read this and let out such an abrupt, loud laugh that it scared my boyfriend half to death. A domino effect.
If I have to say Mississippi between each blink, there's no way I can blink 120 times in one minute.
You're counting the 60 seconds, not the blinks.
Can I say Oklahoma instead?
You know how a computer mouse is rated for a number of clicks over its lifetime? I'll be saving up my blinks, thank you very much. Lest they run out when I need them most.
You're only getting replies from the people it didn't work for. Everyone else is sleeping.
What happens when your eyelid muscles get stronger from all the training?
That means you've earned the title of Blinker Supreme. Now you can never fall asleep ever again, so you just become Batman and protect your city.
I'm gonna report back on my findings. If I don't respond within 10 minutes, it worked.
Looks like it did.
No replies match that.
