Military Sleep Technique: Does it Work? Brazilian News Outlet Investigates

A military sleep technique, designed to help soldiers fall asleep quickly even in stressful conditions, is gaining popularity in Brazil. The method, involving six simple steps, has anecdotal evidence of effectiveness, but the Brazilian Sleep Association emphasizes the absence of scientific studies confirming its efficacy. Fernanda Fialho, a g1 reporter, explains the technique in a recent video, highlighting the steps and encouraging viewers to try it with patience. "Relaxation and imagining calm scenarios are key," Fialho states. However, the Association's data reveals that nearly half of Brazilians struggle with sleep problems, suggesting a significant audience for such a technique, regardless of its scientific validation. The g1 article offers additional information for those seeking better sleep.
