This 5 Step Sleep Routine will Rock Your World.

Sleep is so important but so difficult to get. After a long day, your body just wants to rest. But sleep is essential for many reasons than merely a break from exertion. The time we spend sleeping also allows our hormones to flow, which gives us the strength we need to tackle whatever life has in store for us the following day. The brain, heart, immune system, and other important internal powerhouses are all put under stress by lack of sleep. We’re not attempting to make you anxious! Just a friendly reminder that getting enough sleep is crucial.

Here are some strategies to improve your daily routine if it’s not coming naturally so that you can have some blissful nap time.

1. Examine your evening schedule
   
   The Trifecta consists of an Epsom salt bath, a cup of chamomile tea, and dim bedroom lighting. Even while this is not the sole method for preparing for amazing sleep, it certainly make the evening more relaxing. Even without Epsom salts, a warm bath is calming, but the magnesium in Epsom salts is believed to help calm a racing mind. One of our favorite botanicals for inducing sleep is chamomile tea. It’s so simple to prepare, yet occasionally we simply forget. You won’t regret it if you do it. One more quick and easy way to get ready for bed? Your bedside lamp should be turned on early in the evening. before it truly gets dark outside. Sounds absurd, but believe us. Then, when it’s time for bed, you won’t have to turn on harsh or bright overhead lights because the room will already be softly lit.

By using this combination, you may switch your evening mood to Chill Mode.

2. Supplements to promote sound sleep

In terms of plants that help us unwind, get quiet, and get ready for bed, we are aware of a full-spectrum hemp extract that is suitable for the evening. Any sleep schedule can use our Hemperial CBD Full-Spectrum hemp extract, which come in both oils and capsules. Jade Fields, a avid hiker and admirer of Hemperial CBD, uses our hemp oil “just before bed every night because it helps me reach a sense of serenity.” Don’t miss our post on how to start incorporating Hemperial CBD into your morning or evening routine if it isn’t already.

3. All Day Nutrition

Sleeping on food? We don’t often stop to consider how what we eat throughout the day will effect how well we sleep at night. The building blocks your body needs to sustain energy, repair tissue, and optimize hormone flow around the clock are found in meals that are built around lean, clean proteins, organic veggies, and healthy fats.

Sleep Pro Tip: If you wake up between two and four in the morning, it may be your brain telling you that it needs a little more fuel. If you didn’t eat enough satisfying food the previous night, head to the kitchen and get a banana or dollop of nut butter to quell your appetite and send you back to counting sheep.

4. Limit exposure to nighttime stimuli and electronics

Which of these – TV, tablets, computers, phones, engaging discussions – helps you go asleep? You’d be right if you predicted that none of the things above apply. To your eyes and brain, the blue light from electronics shouts “DAYLIGHT.” It’s best to turn off devices two hours before bed. Consider the conversational tones you are viewing, as well as the accompanying sounds and visuals, in addition to the lighting. These may startle you into becoming alert. Although it can be difficult to resist watching another Netflix show, your circadian rhythm will appreciate it.

       5. Establish a “bedtime”

Yes, we are adults, and we once believed that part of the joy of being an adult was having the freedom to make decisions about our lives, including when to go to bed. Your body, however, enjoys constancy. The ideal 8-hour window, according to health gurus, is from 10 night to 6 am. Try to get as near to it as you can if that doesn’t seem to fit with your way of life. Whatever time you decide to go to bed, it’s important to be consistent. Consider it this way: helping your body anticipate sleep can help you fall asleep faster.

Goodnight!
