Episode Details

I saw a TikTok claiming that sticking your tongue out for 40 seconds can calm your nervous system, lower cortisol, and help you sleep deeper. In this episode, I break down what’s useful, what’s exaggerated, and how this connects to lion’s breath — a simple breathing practice that may help release tension in the jaw, face, throat, and body before bed. Tonight’s Night Shift: test it for yourself, but don’t confuse “I felt calmer” with “my sleep magically changed.”
