Then perhaps the lesson is that it doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t matter how many hours you sleep, but how deeply you sleep. Ideally you would sleep a long time, and sleep deeply, and it seems that the critical ingredient to sleeping deeply is the nutritional density of your meat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, the days where I have tons of bone marrow, beef ribs, heart, liver, innards, I sleep the best.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thinking about the Iliad, after the battle scenes, and the sunsets, when both sides go back to their camps, proceed to slaughter a bunch of oxen, roast the thigh bones, and then feast, sleep, and wake up the next morning to the rosy-fingered Light, and then continue to do battle.
