A tiktok influencer and a Filipino fitness trainer (Justin Agustin) has gone viral on tiktok with 6.6 millions views and over 500,000 likes for testing out a sleep hack that was developed by the military to help someone fall asleep in under 2 minutes.

This sleeping hack was developed by the military, mainly for fighter pilots to help them fall asleep anywhere and at any time, even in awkward and difficult environments.

“First, you need to calm your body and systematically relax and shut down each part of your body from head to toe, literally,” Agustin says in his video.

In the video, Agustin suggests picturing two scenarios in your mind to let go of stress:

“You’re lying in a canoe on a calm lake with nothing but a clear blue sky above you” or “You’re lying in a black velvet hammock in a pitch black room.”

Agustin then explains that this sleeping routine has to be practiced every single night for up to 6 weeks. He said that 96% of people who have mastered this military technique have been able to fall asleep in under 2 minutes.

One tiktok user commented under the video and said, “I’m a military brat and was taught this.”

So if you have trouble falling asleep at night, try this hack!
