habits for better sleep ✨

sleep is essential to our health!! & most of us do not get enough of it or it’s poor quality 😅

Trying to hit 8-9 hours of sleep every night is the goal! Here are some tips to help out:

Red light therapy ❤️ red light for 20-30 minutes before bed to boost melatonin! Also try to stay off your blue light screens before bed as they tend to stimulate our brains

Legs up on the wall ✨ this helps get your body into rest and digest! Do this for 15-20 minutes before bed - this is a great habit stack with the red light or a meditation

sleepy mocktail 🍒 drinking magnesium before bed helps to relax you & sleep better

Self care 🧖‍♀️ a self care routine helps relax you and signals to your body you’re ready to end your day!

Journaling & reading 📖 reading before bed is proven to help you sleep better! I love journaling before bed to and it also tends to make me sleepy

Pajamas 🛏️ change into pajamas that you only wear to bed! & don’t hang out in your bed until you are going to sleep!

Hope this helps you get more zzz’s

Achieving restful sleep is crucial for overall wellbeing. Establishing a calming bedtime routine can significantly impact your sleep quality. One popular method is red light therapy, which should be used for 20-30 minutes before sleep to boost melatonin. Blue light exposure from screens can inhibit melatonin production, so it's best to minimize screen time as bedtime approaches. Incorporating a simple practice of putting your legs up on the wall for around 15-20 minutes before sleeping can help activate the body's relaxation response, promoting better sleep. Also, consider a magnesium-rich drink, like a sleep-inducing mocktail, to unwind at night, facilitating deeper sleep cycles. Creating a consistent self-care routine signals to the body that it's time to relax. This could involve journaling or reading, both of which calm the mind and prepare it for sleep. Furthermore, changing into designated bedtime pajamas establishes a mental association between those clothes and sleep, enhancing your nightly rituals. By implementing these tips, you can optimize your sleep environment and habits, paving the way for a more restorative and enjoyable night’s sleep.
