If you sleep in anything less than 67, I think you're a psychopath, but that's a side point.

So a thermostat, what happens, right? When we're in Ohio, it's freezing cold, when the air

dips below like 60 or whatever the thermostat is set at, he kicks on. And that's the same thing

with your subconscious a lot of times because we want to, you know, it's like a threshold,
