A Good Nights Sleep

A good nights sleep is important to both our mental and physical wellbeing. Lack of sleep can lead to irritability, memory problems, increase in illness & accidents and feeling low & depressed.

So, how do you get a good night’s sleep?

Try some of these tips:

• Set yourself a digital bedtime slightly earlier than you actually plan to head to bed. If you plan to go to bed at 10pm, try to put your phone down at 9pm

• Try to stick to a no phone or tv in bed rule - this gives your mind time to switch off

• Head upstairs with a hot drink - avoid caffeine; try hot chocolate, Horlicks, hot milk or a chamomile tea

• Have a warm, relaxing bath - use lavender bath salts or a relaxing bubble bath

• Make sure your bedroom is a calm, relaxing, tidy room. Use dim lighting. A Himalayan Salt Lamp can create a warm, soothing glow

• Programme your Crystal - sit calm, still & quiet with your Crystal in your hand -  empty your mind - think about the good nights sleep you want to have, pop the Crystal under your pillow

• Use a roll on sleep essential oil or pillow spray in lavender or chamomile 

• If you still have things running around your mind, keep a notebook by your bed - write anything you still have running around your head in your notebook - think of this as taking it out of your head and putting it in to your book, put the book in a drawer

Turn off the light and have a lovely nights sleep.

You probably wont have time for this full routine each night, find what works for you.  

Calm • Relaxed • Don’t take devices & thoughts to bed - you can come back to them when you are fresh in the morning •
