But - also reading through this piece (casually) it really does kind of seem to carry a flavor of dose of infomercial and sales job - carried along by (some) backing science.
Here is the exact 10-minute sequence, built from the most rigorous research in neuroscience and sleep science. Do not skip steps. Do not reorder them. The sequence matters because each step neurologically primes the next.
Two Minutes of Written Intention Setting
Take a small notebook. Write three things and only three things:
(have you demonstrated that writing
4 things is measurably less effective .. ? no? then why would you be peddling rote method and behavior .. ? your 'method' works - every other is cheap imitation of the 'real' thing?)
60 Seconds of Full Body Movement
Not a workout. Not a warm-up. Exactly 60 seconds of whatever movement elevates your heart rate and ..
(again - because we have demonstrated that 80 seconds, or 120 - shows a drop off in desired effect .. ? demerits will be handed out to those that allow their attention to wander from their wristwatch .. ? )
Sunlight in Your Eyes Before Anything Else
Before your phone. Before coffee. Before speaking to anyone. The very first thing you do is walk outside or to a window and expose your eyes to natural light for 2 minutes. Not through glass if you can help it. Not through sunglasses. Direct outdoor light, even on a cloudy day.
( and the 'supporting work here .. ? quote: "Dr. Andrew Huberman's work at Stanford confirmed that morning light exposure within 30 minutes of waking ..." nothing about windows ... nothing about 'immediately' and
before everything else ... just get some sunlight in your early morning routine.)
So, yeah ... Seeing about half 'sales pitch' here ...
