Can't sleep? Try the 4-7-8 breathing technique that claims to help you nod off in 60 SECONDS.

• Method has been pioneered by Harvard-trained Dr Andrew Weill
• It involves regulating your breathing to various counts of 4, 7 and 8
• It lets oxygen better fill the lungs, calms the mind and relaxes muscles

To do the 4-7-8 breathing technique, you first need to exhale completely through your mouth while making a 'whoosh' sound.

Close your mouth and inhale quietly through your nose to a mental count of four.

Now hold your breath for a count of seven.

After this time has elapsed, exhale completely through your mouth, making another whoosh sound for eight second in one large breath.

Now inhale again and repeat the cycle three times for a total of four breaths.
