I think my financial advisor is asleep at the wheel I found this sub and see that basically I’m an idiot for getting a financial advisor.

LPT Request: how to fall asleep if your partner snores. It’s not a seriously loud snore, but I have trouble falling asleep regardless. It’s just.. annoying and I can’t zone it out.

LPT: if you are ever too hot to fall asleep, wet down a tea towel or pillowcase with water until damp (not dripping) and lay it over your body with a fan pointed at you, this will cool your body right down and makes it so much easier to fall asleep.

LPT: When trying to fall asleep, visualize you doing something tedious Find something that appeals to you. I visualize that I got dropped in a forest and need to build a shelter, but anything tedious works.That means I need to make a thread, find wood, and make it all come together. You must drag out the action as much as you can. The whole process is making your brain not think of work, school, private issues, and…

LPT request: how to fall asleep while hungry? I’m currently trying to lose weight and it’s going okay. My biggest hurdle is that I can’t fall asleep if I’m the slightest bit hungry.
