Nearing the mid week and starting to feel the pressure? Try the "4-7-8"sleep technique from clinical professor of medicine Dr. Andrew Weil:
• Place your tongue lightly behind your top teeth.
• Exhale.
• Breathe in through your nose for a count of 4.
• Hold that breath for a count of 7.
• Exhale for a count of 8.
• Repeat that three times.
That technique brings more oxygen into your body and relaxes the parasympathetic nervous system - which controls our stress response.
