What's your dream home?

American writer F. Scott Fitzgerald once said the "worst thing in the world is to try to sleep and not to."

Many of us will have experienced this at some point — lying in bed for what feels like hours, trying to fall asleep. But what if there was a way to fall asleep in just five minutes?

Of course, some people take longer to fall asleep than others do. But experts say there are different things we can do to help us fall asleep quicker.

Here are some of them:

Morning light is important
It might sound strange, but according to sleep scientist Russell Foster, getting a good night's sleep starts in the morning. Speaking with The Telegraph, he said it's important to get as much natural light as early as possible.

This can help move our body clock to an earlier time, so that we already feel tired when we get into bed later on.

Don't nap after 4 p.m.
If you've had a long day at work, you may be tempted to have a nap in the afternoon. And while short naps can help us feel less tired during the day, Foster says we shouldn't nap for longer than 20 minutes or less than six hours before going to bed, or we might have difficulty falling asleep later.

Practice mindfulness
"Most people don't have a sleep problem, they have an anxiety problem," Foster says, and he recommends practicing mindfulness as a way to relax before bed.

This means being present with our thoughts, instead of thinking about things that have happened or could happen. You could try reading or doing some breathing exercises as a way to relax, and avoid using your phone.

He adds that important conversations should be saved for when it's light outside, as they could keep your mind active and stop you from falling asleep quickly.

はい、こんにちは。今回はシーズン２の５回目です。前回はAIの話をしました。たくさんの日本語の生徒さんにおすすめされるし、今は知識基盤社会に関するレポートを書いているので、今日はそのAIを使ってみました。AIはとても賢かったです。想像以上に言葉の意味を理解しているので、驚きました。だけど料理のレシピを聞くと、ときどき変な材料が入っていました。

Hello. This is episode 5 of season 2 of my podcast. Last time we talked about some AI software which can write essays. A lot of Japanese language students recommend it and I'm writing a report on knowledge-based societies at the moment, so today I used this AI. The AI was very smart. I was surprised because it understood the meaning of the words better than I imagined. But when I asked it about cooking recipes, it sometimes gave strange ingredients.

今日はシンギュラリティについてお話しします。シンギュラリティとは、AIが人間より賢くなって社会を変えてしまう現象のことです。アメリカのレイ・カーツワイル博士によると、2029年には、AIは人間と同じレベルになるそうです。そして2045年には、いろいろな仕事がAIに置き代わると予想されています。肉体労働がなくなると予想している人が多いですが、私はそう思いません。肉体労働は、毎日事故がたくさん起こるので対処が大変だからです。「対処」とは、問題に対して正しい行動をすることです。私は、医者や弁護士のほうが先になくなると思います。なぜなら、AIは免許の試験に合格できると思うからです。

Today I will talk about The Singularity. The Singularity is a phenomenon in which AI becomes smarter than humans and changes society. According to Dr Ray Kurzweil from the USA, by 2029, AI will be at the same level as humans. And by 2045, various jobs are expected to be replaced by AI. Many people predict that physical labour will disappear, but I disagree. This is because physical work is hard to Taisho with, as many accidents happen every day. 'Taisho' means doing the right thing in response to a problem. I think doctors and lawyers will disappear first. Because I think AI can pass the necessary exams.

先々週の週末は、京都で生徒さんと焼肉を食べました。いろいろな話をして楽しかったです。その次の日は、体育の授業がありました。朝の９時から夜の６時までずっとスポーツをしました。私が最後にバレーボールや大縄跳びをしたのは、10年以上前だと思います。とても疲れたので、夜ご飯は駅でラーメンを食べることにしました。初めて行く店でしたが、美味しかったです。
