A short YouTube clip by Nir Eyal offering a non-pharmaceutical method to fall back asleep: use an E‑reader (not a phone/tablet) plus two tactics — reciting random words to break a worry loop and reading a deliberately boring book to induce sleepiness. The video also briefly cites science-backed support and directs viewers to Eyal’s book Indistractable for more tips.
