You've probably heard that sleep is important, but did you know it's crucial for your mental health too? A sleep coach who's been there, done that, shares her top three tips for better sleep. And the best part? They're super simple!
First up, stick to a consistent wake-up time. This helps your body's internal clock run smoothly. Even if you can't go to bed at the same time every night, waking up at the same time helps. Your body will start to feel sleepy around the same time each night, making it easier to nod off.
Next, don't skip breakfast! Eating early in the morning helps your body know it's daytime. After breakfast, take a walk outside. Early morning light exposure can help you fall asleep faster and sleep better at night.
Lastly, relax before bed. If you're like most people, your brain is buzzing with thoughts right before bed. Give it a break by creating a bedtime routine. This could be as simple as taking a shower, changing into comfy clothes, and doing a quick meditation.
Sleep is like food for your brain. Good sleep helps you feel more alert, happy, and healthy. So, give these tips a try and see how much better you feel!
