What are some unconventional things that people can do to improve their sleep and their health? For sleep specifically, it's all about temperature, and temperature can be managed in a couple of different ways. Obviously, our product does that for you, but anything else you can do with temperature even before going to bed. So I just give you an example. Let's say you are in a hotel and there is a sauna and an ice bath. If you can do 2 rounds of sauna and ice bath, after that you will feel so relaxed that you can fall asleep immediately. If you don't have a sauna and an ice bath, you can still try to do the same just with a shower, right? So you switch between very cold and very hot shower. The other big thing is usually breathwork could work really well. You just need to try what works for you. For me, it's usually, you know, you inhale for 4 seconds, you wait 4, you exhale for 4, and then you wait another 4. You do that 6, 7, 8 times, and then you will feel more relaxed.
