You know this guy is good at sleeping when he has no dark circles.

If you are reading this, I am wishing you nothing but love, health and better sleep

He looks like an animated character that came to life.

6: Don't have a stupid loud neighbour

Me: about to go to sleep KZfaq Recommendations: "6 tips for better sleep" Me: well guess im gonna stay awake for 5 minutes and 28 seconds more

6 tips 1. Regularity 2. Temperature 3. Darkness. 4. Walk it out. 5. Monitor alcohol & caffeine. 6. Wind down routine.

Additional Tips: Use blanket to protect you from a monster

studying at night always makes me sleepy, that’s the best way for me to fall asleep

You know you're going to really learn and retain any kind of information when somebody explains you as patiently and practically as this guy. He's better than my teachers.

who else is watching this past their bedtime?

Tips 2 : Lower down the temperature. *laughing from my hot humid tropical country room.

0:20 regularity 1:04 temperature 1:43 darkness 2:29 walk it out 3:21 alcohol and caffine 3:40 wind down

Matt: have consistency with your sleep Me listening at 3:00am: 👁👄👁

Another tip that really helps me: When lying in bed, think about what you are grateful for. Sounds strange, but it actually works.

Stay away from screens an hour before sleep.. Me watching this lying on bed trying to sleep

This guy is so excited about sleeping. I wish everyone was that excited in his job, surely the world would be better.

1. Regularity (of sleeping and waking up) 2. Temperature (keep it cool about 18 deg C) 3. Darkness (dim lights, avoid screens) 4. Walk it out (if can't sleep within 25 mins in bed, do something else, don't let your brain form an association between your bed and sleepless lying down) 5. Monitor alcohol & caffeine (avoid) 6. Wind down routine (try some activities and make your own routine)

I like how you divided it in 8 "episodes", so I can choose the ones I'm more interested, and don't have to watch all in a single video. 👍

Who else watching this at 3:00 am

Who else is watching KZfaq videos instead of sleeping? 😆

To anybody reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting or stressing you in your life get better. I pray that anything preventing you from sleep goes away and you get better. I wish you luck, Joy, Happiness and good health.

Another tip not mentioned is getting enough sunlight exposure during the day as it helps the brain differentiate times of the day to readjust its circadian rhythm so the pineal gland can excrete melatonin faster at night

Thank you, Matt Walker & TED, for a much needed series.

Nurul Najihah , 4DSF , KMPH I think overall the tips was so helpfull ex specially for student like me who busy studying until doesn’t get enough time to sleep,thankyou for the tipss !!

Good tips, clearly explained. Nothing else irrelevant to sit through in the video. Totally satisfying. 👌🏻 Thank you!

Thank you Matt Walker for all the great advice, really enjoying this series.

I have no more than 10 minutes every day to learn something useful for living better and keep my brain flexible... and TED stuff really suits me. Thank you guys...keep it up !!

He is kind of my favorite speaker because he says quite slowly, understandably and foremost, he has British accent (i love it) that really helpful for me to practice listening. Hope Ted and Matt will release more episodes about this exhilarant topic!!!

Man I wish we could set like an alarm on ourselves and we could immediately fall asleep when we wanted to and wake up when we wanted to

Thanks for this, I liked the animations a lot. I can't really talk to anybody about my sleep disorder, so I feel more empowered to go about finding solutions because of this video.

I’m najibah from class 4DSF14, Kolej Matrikulasi Pahang Malaysia. It’s so nice to know that hardly falling asleep is normal.. I will try these tips in the future and highly wish it will work. I’m a student, and I need lots of energy which can only be gained from a nice and deep slumber. Thanks for the tips😊

I absolutely love this series!!!! Thank you TED!

I repeated Matt Walker Spotify podcast of 2019 Ted Talks and actually fell asleep because his voice is similar to a auto book reader

These are very important tips to follow! Love these tip ideas that many could put to use😊

Thank you for the tips for better sleep. I love watching and listening to you here on the top of the mountain.

He's my good teacher of sleep. I'm going to give it a try. Thank you guys!

Probably true of a lot of people watching this, but... I needed this. My relationship with sleep has gone out of balance recently, and I'm starting to see how it's affecting other areas of my life. So, thanks for this series of videos, TED, I'm gonna close my laptop now and head to bed in an hour :)

A tip that really helped me was doing exercise and eating lightly before sleeping. It helped me whine down really easy after showering and going to bed straight away. My body bloats really bad too after eating so drinking a smoothie for dinner helped me heaps. I would also spend all my energy working out so I’d be exhausted by the time I hit the bed.

The horizontal fringe is crazy. I also love the animation.

One of the only and truely worthwile talk since 2019.

Tip 7: Stop worrying so much about sleep

Anyone else see trump's head at the bottom of the painting behind him?

that was so helpful. u re killing it man. Science is breaker of all things

Thank you for the good information that you give, after this day I will try to follow your instruction for better sleep for myself.

He looks like he’s trying not to tell you about how complicated it was too create research for this.

I love this guy! So passionate about sleep!

Why we Sleep was the most usefull book ever read, thanks a lot

Another powerful tip that has helped me to actually feel sleepy around my bed time is getting outside in the sunlight immediately after I wake up to feel alert in the morning and then as evening approaches, cutting out most light to not mess up my sleep. Source: Huberman Lab podcast

Man we love ted animations.

BEAUTIFULLY EXPLAINED AND VERY GREAT 👍

This was so helpful. Thank you!

I needed this, especially working night shifts, it can be tough. Sleep is so important.

I like this dude and how he speaks: clean voice, no lip smacking or mouth sounds, good pace... he could also be an excellent narrator apart from very insightful scientist

Is it really normal for most people to take 10-25 minutes to fall asleep? I usually fall asleep within a minute. If anyone would like my tip; here you go: try to actually think of something when you go to bed like for an example, something you enjoy which for me is snowboarding so I imagine myself boarding down a hill or remembering old good memories of it. Doing this almost starts up a dream and creates a tired atmosphere. Edit: Tip- don’t think of thoughts like ‘omg when am I going to fall asleep’, because as obvious as it is.. most people continue to think these thoughts constantly and you will take a long time to fall asleep doing so. Just imagine your dreams.

Truly amazing!!! Super thanks for sharing this!! Really helpful...thanks thanks thanks!!

Thanks for all information.

I recently turned 50 and I wake up every morning feeling like a 19-year-old gymnast as I swear by getting a nice dose of quality sleep, religiously!! It truly contributes to your fountain of youth!!

anyone else that’s sleep deprived? i needed this video :D

Nice tips, very basic but they are bare minimum for better sleep. I found the most difficult is to disengage from devices and things which makes my brain active. the goal is to do vice versa - during last 2 hrs of wakefulness you must slow yourself down, phisycally and mentally. Also i've noticed that if you go to bed too tipsy gives a feeling of better sleep but in reality you wake up in worse shape wanting to go sleep whole day. Thanks for tips!

These are amazing tips. Thank you!

He has actually written a book called "Why we sleep" and this book is just awesome.I haven't finished it.I have just read the first few chapters but the book is really good.Thanks a lot matthew walker!

The tips are great. Also, try having a routine the last 30 minutes before going to sleep such as putting the phone down, turning off the computer and getting some water. Your routine can vary, but doing this every day will let your mind and body know it's time to fall asleep. It also helps to listen to some soothing music *HINT* *HINT* *WINK* WINK*.

This man is intelligently genius. The content is simply informative and alot helpful technic to get a good sleep at night as most people sleep in the darker light, in other words, people need better quality of sleep. Fantastic tip of beautiful sleep. Love this video ever, simple and clear also informative.

i really love the way he talks

Syuhada 4dsf14 kmph -Thank you for sharing the useful tips to have a nice sleep. Since iam a hostel student i think this tips will help me a lot. I will try to this tips later on.

One of the best presenters I have ever seen❤️

I literally love this man.

I hope for you guys watching this video to have good sleep 😌

Him: You need darkness Me: Well it's not so easy when you live above the polar circle

Thanks for the info

This was amazing! Thank you so so much.

It largely depends on the individual. Coffee actually helps me to get "tired" and I usually enjoy a cup after dinner. As for screens, sure but it's mighty difficult to stay away from them. I usually make my rounds in games after going to bed since I can't just turn off the light and instantly pass out. But I understand that the screen light as well as excitement you get from games can work against you. I know from my reports that I spend about 2h every day on the cell. Most of that is in bed. Not that I avoid screens outside of bed though, I in fact spend most of the day behind a computer. I know there is some research into screen time but really we will have to wait a few decades more until that long-term research comes out. Right now we're the guinea pigs in a worldwide experiment.

dislikes are from people working night shifts in Sahara desert,

Thank you so much! The info is good to know and the animations are splendid. Also, you have a cool accent! I have an extra tip to add. Try 1 sleep tip at a time, so you don't get overwhelmed. Focus on following 1 sleep tip (if you want to). You can always try a new sleep tip when you feel like it. 2nd tip: If your mind is racing or you are stressed before sleeping, you can try a meditation exercise to quiet down and feel better. They calm me down, and they don't need any special things. I am using the UCLA Mindful app, which has recordings guiding you to do a meditation. Anyway, I hope you find some good sleep and stay safe

Aina Asyahieda 4DSF14 KMPh Those tips are very helpful for those who can’t sleep easily at night just like me. I hope that you can continue doing this kind of video so that many people can have a proper sleep everyday and have a better life in the future. 🥰

syafiqah 4DSF14 kmph thankyou for sharing this kind of topic. I hope I'll sleep better after this

I miss when Matt was actually working on solutions to insomnia, rather than just the issues it causes. As someone who has had insomnia for 6 years it feels like we've made no progress at all, doctors just throw anti-depressants at you

Thanks for sharing such valuable insights!

This was very helpful, thank you so much bro :3

I would like to sleeping with science. That's why they call me "sapiosexual"...

Why we can’t remember our dream sometimes? Why do we get nightmares? Do dreams have meaning?

Thank you again for such a wonderful video. I guess, only the interested ones would appreciate this video.
