You fall asleep fine.
You open your eyes at three.
You lie there till the birds.
This paper is about the second half of the night. Nothing else.
Nine nights. Twenty-two pages. Big print.
It tells you what is going on at three o’clock, and which part of it nobody can prove — written plain, in two pages.
It gives you the nine nights the old yard used, in the order they are done, one night to a page.
It tells you the two nights it will not help, so you do not spend them.
That is the whole paper. There is no chapter on positive thinking.
It is twenty-two pages, in print big enough to read without your glasses on the arm of the chair. You will finish it tonight, before the kettle boils twice.
$9.99 · one payment · it has never been anything else
Three papers together: $19.99 instead of $29.97 — that is the three of them at $9.99 each, added up honestly. You keep $9.98.
While the gate is closed, the fourteen articles are open and free — start there.
| You are up at 3:10, sharp, like somebody called your name | Night 1 and Night 2 work on the hour of the rise. You will still touch the surface. You are not meant to be put out on the bank. |
| Asleep by ten, awake at 1:45, and the mind starts in on money | Night 3 is the page you do instead of counting, and the clock face turned to the wall. |
| You get up for the bathroom at two and that is the end of it | Night 5 is the hour with the legs up before bed. The water that sat in the ankles all day comes back into you when you lie flat, and the kidneys make it into a two o’clock. |
| By three in the afternoon you are finished, so you doze in the chair, and then the night is worse | Night 6 is the chair rule, and it is the one nobody wants to hear. |
| The wine helped you off, and it did, and then two o’clock came hard | Night 7. It sedates the first half and charges you for it in the second. |
| You have tried everything — the tablets, the tea, the phone put away — and it is still three o’clock | Most of those work on falling asleep, and falling asleep was never your trouble. Some medicines are meant for the second half of the night: if a doctor gave you one of those, keep taking it exactly as it was given, and take this beside it. These nine nights work on the hour, not on the remedy. |

And what I do not do, because it matters more:
I sell no capsule, no powder, no drops. Nothing from me goes down your throat in a bottle.
There is no monthly here. No membership that keeps taking.
I do not tell you to stop what your doctor put in your hand. Not one line in this paper says stop.
I am no doctor and no healer. I did not train and I do not treat. I am the one who kept the
papers, and I read them out.
One. When the gate opens: you put your email in and pay the $9.99. One card. One time.
Two. In about a minute the paper lands in your email. Not a link to sign up for — the paper itself.
Three. You open it. It opens on its own, on a phone, on an iPad, on any computer, the same way a photograph opens.
No app to download. No account to make. No password to remember. One payment — there is no month two, because nothing runs.
Nothing here renews. Every one of them is bought once and kept. And nothing here gets dearer for waiting.
This paper is old yard tradition, written down. It is not medical care, it is not a diagnosis, and nothing in it treats a disease. Keep taking what your doctor gave you. Nothing in this paper is a reason to stop a prescription, lower it, skip it, or swap it — not the sleeping tablets, not the blood pressure, not the water pill, not the sugar medicine, not the thyroid. Speak to your doctor or your pharmacist before you use any plant in here if you are pregnant or nursing; if you take a blood thinner, a sedative, medicine for the heart or blood pressure, for diabetes, for the thyroid, for seizures, or for the mind; if you have kidney or liver trouble; or if you have surgery coming.
And this one matters most. Waking at three can be the body saying something else entirely. If the waking comes with pain or pressure in the chest, with gasping or choking, with a heart that runs off on its own, with ankles swelling and the breath short when you lie flat, with soaking sweats, with weight leaving you, or with a low place in the mind that will not lift — that is not a tea night. That is a see-the-doctor day. Today, not next week. Go, and take this paper with you if you like.
Give thanks. — Ras Ezra
