A U365 5MTS Microlearning 5 MINUTES TO SUCCESS UNOP Neuro-Hack |
How to Do It (Steps)
Greet the Light (1 minute or more - optimal 5 minutes): Step near a window or outside. Look toward natural daylight—without staring at the sun—to trigger your brain’s wake-up signals. If you're living in a country where there is no sunlight in the morning or if it's too early, use artificial light, such as a bulb lamp or a special light therapy device. Make sure to look at the light as soon as you wake up.
Deep Breaths (30 seconds or more - optimal 2 minutes): Perform 2–3 physiological sighs (quick inhale, brief pause, full inhale, then slow exhale).
Mini-Stretch and vigorous tapping (30 seconds or more - optimal 2 minutes): Gently roll your shoulders, tilt your head from side to side, and breathe deeply.
After rolling, tap strongly and vigorously under each armpit, then on the elbow joint. Next, shake your wrists and hands as if you're trying to dry them after washing.
5M2S Key Point
In under 2 minutes, you’re recharging your mental engine. Simple, fast, and effective.

Origine
This hack draws on circadian rhythm research emphasizing morning light exposure. Coupled with physiological sighing from the Dr. Andrew Huberman Lab, it ensures a quick cortisol awakening response.
