Lung health depends on full, deep breaths. Regular pranayama expands lung capacity over time. As we age, muscles rigidify, limiting air intake. Deep breathing with stretches builds elasticity. Breathe deeply 10 times daily to keep your lungs strong.

Amber or orange glasses block blue light from screens and lightbulbs after sunset. They protect melatonin for better sleep; I use them after 8 p.m. What's your favorite blue light-blocking eyewear?

Blue light from screens suppresses melatonin, delaying sleep. Switch devices to night mode after dark, or wear blue light-blocking glasses. What's your evening blue light reduction strategy?

Sleep in total darkness. Even dim light can suppress melatonin and disrupt sleep. Blackout curtains and masks help! What's your best sleep-darkening hack?

@seanpbaldwin There’s a lot of individual variation. As long as it feels cool, it will help you sleep!

Keep the bedroom cool, around 65°F (18°C). Thermoregulation affects sleep cycles. Cooler = deeper sleep. What's your ideal sleep temperature?

Limit caffeine after 2 p.m. Caffeine blocks adenosine, a sleepy signal. Stick to decaf and herbal tea in the afternoon or evening. What's your caffeine cut-off time?

@larrymills2010 It can help a few hours before bed, but right before I usually avoid it!

Improve focus quickly with alternate nostril breathing; it clears the mind and increases oxygen to boost concentration. Close one nostril and inhale through the other to activate both brain hemispheres. Switch sides and repeat for mental clarity. Even 2 minutes works.

Get some morning sunlight. Sunlight triggers cortisol release to energize you for the day. Eat breakfast by a window, or better yet, outside! Where's your favorite morning sunshine spot?

Want to improve your sleep? Abdominal breathing cues your body to relax, helping you fall asleep faster. Shallow chest breathing activates the fight-or-flight response. Diaphragmatic breathing induces relaxation for a more restful sleep. #BetterSleep #Relaxation
