What the pattern means: your body runs on a natural “sleep battery” that charges during the day - and especially after 40, it doesn't charge fully anymore.

Half-charged, you can still doze off… but sleep is too shallow to hold. So you surface - at 2, 3, or 4 AM.

In the presentation, a researcher who has spent 18 years on this covers:

✓Why so many people surface at 2, 3 or 4 AM - the “sleep battery” in plain English

✓Why melatonin and sleeping pills weren't fixing it

✓The exact “30-second cherry trick” he does before bed
