This is a YouTube video titled "You’re not bad at sleep, you’re just stuck in survival mode. #sleephack #nervoussystemreset" (created 2025-06-21). It’s a short wellness/advice clip with a single speaker offering a nighttime breathing technique (5 slow, deep exhales) to lower cortisol and improve sleep—claiming clients gained up to 1.5 hours of extra sleep. The speaker cites research, references their course (Module 2: Sleep Sanctuary) to expand on the technique, and includes a call-to-action asking viewers to comment "course" for more information.

You tell yourself, "I'll just sleep when it's done." But then that to-do list just keeps going and going and going, right? Try this. At night before you go to bed, take 5 slow, deep exhales. Really deep. Research says it can help lower your cortisol level faster, much faster, than taking melatonin alone. My clients who have tried this have gained up to 1.5 hours of extra sleep at night. So try this. In my course, Module 2's Sleep Sanctuary really helps to build on this even more. So I suggest try it, and if you're interested in the course, comment "course" for more information.
