He asked me out for lunch. He had...

We can literally wake up a hundred times a night and not remember it. This is called sleep apnea, and it’s exhausting and leads to obesity (due to the hormonal disruptions that occur when we do not sleep). Devices can show us if we’ve been sleeping or restless.

Maybe one of them can help you. The Four Agreements This is a short book. It's a really simple framework that if followed even sometimes, can keep you out of drama. After I read it, I made four more "agreements" or guidelines to follow. At the time one was about Jiu-Jitsu, one about business conflicts, etc. Mind Gym This is a fun and light read. It's a collection stories from...
