The author

Francesco Jr. De Liso

I'm a lawyer. For most of my working life, my job has been to stay composed when other people can't — to think clearly under a deadline, to speak steadily when the stakes are high, to keep a level head in the room where everyone else has lost theirs. That's a trainable discipline. You're not born calm under pressure. You practice it until it holds.

These guides grew out of that discipline meeting ordinary problems — the 3am wake, the overthinking spiral, the racing mind. The tools here aren't courtroom tricks. They're drawn from published research on sleep, breathing and attention, put into language you can actually use.

Let me be honest about what I'm not. I'm not a doctor, a therapist, or a sleep clinician. Nothing here is diagnosis or treatment. What I can offer is a clear, careful set of skills — and where those skills reach their limit, I'll tell you, and point you toward someone qualified.

Evidence, not hype

Every claim sourced. No miracle promises, no guru theatrics — only what holds up.

Tools, not theory

Scripts, protocols and checklists you run in the moment, not vague inspiration.

Respect for your time

Short, premium, beautifully made. Written to be kept and reread — never padded.
