Because learning about your brain and sleep can be fun . . .
Try to figure out why. To do that, look for clues as to why you feel about the place the way you do. It might be a profane space. So you’re somewhere with bad vibes. Are there problems and troubling things you can see with your own eyes? Is the place rundown? Are there broken…
Not all of the reasons are related to sleep, but improved sleep is one big reason Wouldn’t it be great if living rooms, kitchens, and bedrooms straightened out themselves?
