How do you survive the day when you've gotten little to no sleep? I have insomnia and see a doctor, take medications, etc., but sometimes it just doesn't work. New parents, looking at you.

I used this point a lot while writing my dissertation and on a very unhealthy sleep schedule. If nothing else it is momentarily comforting.

LI-4 Acupressure

“I love this simple hand thing. Massage the webbed area between your thumb and index finger. Gently! If the tension is on the left, massage the right hand, if the right, massage the left. Helpful for anxiety too—definitely chills me out in the backseat of a Tesla lol—and generally takes the edge off before I’m able to drink water/take an Advil!”
