I'm not asking about the sleep score your Garmin gives you each morning. Although thats helpful too. I want to know about the way you live your day, and your sleep hygiene. your preparation for sleep?
We focus so much on getting a good night's sleep for our productive day, but what about living a good life for our sleep?
More likely, we focus so much on the daytime that when we get to the end of the day, we soak into a good tv series, that pushes our bedtime out. We survive our days by drinking coffee, eating sugar and just getting through it. This is destroying our sleep life.
When we live out life like this, and dont worry most of the planet live their life lie this. We are saying a big fat NO to our health, happiness and longevity.
I know that sounds dramatic, but it’s the truth, right?
One night can turn into a bad habit of 11pm frequent bedtimes really quick
Maybe this can be a reminder to look at what you are saying yes to instead of yourself and focus on readjusting the way you live your life, so you can improve life's best kept health secret, sleep.
If you’re wanting to wake up feeling refreshed and ready for the day, it’s important that you tidy your sleep routine up. Here are three top tips to get you started.
Protecting your bedtime is key, know when you want to be sleeping by and then bring it forward half an hour to an hour to accommodate for your bedtime routine.
Soak yourself into your bedtime routine and view it as a connection with yourself and your chance to not so much ‘do’ but ‘be’
Dedicate this time of day to everything self-care, think baths, moisturise, oils, journalling, meditating, all the things that help you to connect back with yourself.
Have fun creating this space and trying out new things that help you to release, relax and unwind.
Make it a daily routine, you cannot just do it once or twice to get all the benefits, it has to be a way of life.
Happy sleepy time.
