Up your sleep game
Sleep is the main pillar for our function in so many ways! Without adequate sleep, our hunger cues are disrupted, our energy levels dip, our mood is altered, our reaction times and productivity decrease to name just a few.
Magnesium could be your go to natural hero when it comes to improving your sleep and sleep quality! Magnesium helps to relax your muscles aiding a deeper sleep but also regulates your neurotransmitters which is vital for deep, quality sleep cycles .
Other ways to improve your sleep include, getting a good amount of sun exposure and natural light. Especially first or last thing. Science shows that exposure to natural sunlight upon waking helps our bodies sync into our natural circadian rhythm. Maybe have your morning drink outside or take a small walk before you start your day.
Calming your nervous system with breath work.
Try to lengthen your breaths for an inhale of 4 seconds and a big exhale of 7 seconds and repeat for a few minutes. This will activate your rest system, focus your mind and help restore your nervous system.
I recommend setting a daily alert to remind you to begin your bedtime routine so you help your body settle with regularity where posible. Beginning with a body brush, followed by a peachy Maggie bath maybe a hot water or herbal tea. Light a bedside candle to accompany your breath work and perhaps read a few pages.
Combine all these sleep tips for a restful nights sleep.
Sleep tight peachy queens.
