The Executive Off Switch
A 15-Minute Evidence-Based Bedtime Protocol for Overactive Executive Minds
Fall asleep on demand in 15 minutes — no apps, pills, or noise.
The Executive Cognitive Off Switch is a precision, science-backed sleep protocol designed for leaders with high cognitive load and nonstop mental analysis. It combines four proven steps — decision hygiene, mental cache closure, somatic downshift, and guided wind-down — into a 15-minute nightly ritual that quiets racing thoughts and stabilizes next-day performance.
Includes: ✔ The 15-Minute Cognitive Off Switch checklist and bedside scripts ✔ A 14-day rollout plan with measurable metrics (sleep latency, wake time, readiness) ✔ 3 A.M. emergency reset for middle-of-the-night wake-ups ✔ Executive travel playbook with hotel and flight adaptations ✔ Daytime micro-habits to reduce nighttime overload
Built on methods from cognitive and behavioral sleep science, this low-tech, privacy-first system restores true rest — no tracking apps, devices, or medications.
