Quick Tips for Sweet Dreams

One of the best things you can do for your body and mind is get a good nights sleep. While the traditional “8 hours a night” may be under question, you should always wake up feeling rested and fresh for the day.

• Try a nice hot drink to help you relax before bed. I’m loving chamomile tea right now, but during the winter I go for a hot chocolate.
• Share your bed with a blanket hogger? Get a king size duvet and they’ll be plenty of cover for everyone. No more tug of war.
• Television, laptop and phone screens give out blue lights, which make your brain think it’s day time. Cut them out of your nighttime routine where you can. Where that’s not possible use a filter like Flux to block out the blue light and help you sleep better.
• Change your mattress. Springs digging in at night don’t only keep you awake, they can also induce nightmares.
