I've been brushing off the 'ill effects' of poor sleep quality but I think it's catching up. I don't have the same mental sharpness I did, and I just constantly feel like I could drop dead. How much 'quality' sleep are you getting? Any hacks to improve sleep quality? I know I can't increase the number of hours due to the nature of my job, but if I could at least work on the quality, it would make a huge difference.

I like a sound machine, weighted blanket, total darkness, and avoiding the screen before bed.

I didn't believe it could make much of a difference but white noise is a game-changer. I always put my room at a low temperature, I make sure the room is super dark and like EY1 said, a nice heavy blanket. Sleep is the most natural way to increase your life span. Make sure you prioritize it!

Avoid screens before bed, use red light filter in your phone (I have an app called twilight that adjusts as the sun sets). If you're not a heavy sleeper, I've heard sunrise alarm clocks help you wake up feeling rested. I tried it but I'm a heavy sleeper so it wasn't working for me :(
Some smart watches also track your sleep stages to wake you up during light sleep stage

Curious how other people’s brains work.
When you get an activation brief, what’s your process for coming up with a solid idea?

Look for cultural moments that you can adapt? Look through award show books? Scroll YouTube videos until 3am?

I know that every brief and every idea is different, but I’m more interested in the process and what you’re creative routine is to get the wheels turning.

Thanks.
