Arnold Schwarzenegger is concerned about three topics, and these are “The Ted Lasso sleep method”, “A life-changing question”, and “Can you freeze away fat?” The first topic is what Schwarzenegger dives into, to help alleviate the sleeping problems of countless people.
Schwarzenegger wrote in the newsletter, “If you’re struggling to get better rest — or simply relax at the end of the day — steal a page from Ted Lasso’s therapist. A simple breathing exercise can not only improve your rest, but it also can reduce anxiety, fight cravings, and improve your health. The popular show shared the 4-7-8 method to help Lasso deal with panic attacks. But the breathing technique, which is based on pranayama yoga and popularized by Dr. Andrew Weil, is incredibly effective at improving sleep”.

She takes up Ted Lasso (Jason Sudeikis) as her client, who after initially refusing to open up to her, finally shares about his panic attacks.

Maria shared an Instagram reel dedicated to appreciate the show. She wrote, “Ted Lasso is one of my favorite shows, and there is a reason why (besides getting to watch it with my son, @c1lotsoffun). I love it because it helps show the realities of mental health. It helps take away the stigma of asking for help, of leaning on others, of being vulnerable. It shows people in all walks of life, from all parts of the world, being a team. It shows them believing in a common good, something I truly believe we can achieve if we come together.”
