Ok, so we know that getting enough sleep can be almost impossible. There are so many factors in our lives that prevent us from getting the recommended amount of sleep and trust us we know it is easy to give in to some if not all of the reasons that keep us up at night.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

But do you know the benefits of getting sleep...other than feeling rested in the morning? Do you know the negative effects continued bad sleep can have on your body? And your goals?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Having a quality nighttime routine is vital to how well you sleep. Start by limiting time on your phone (the blue light from it tricks your brain into thinking it is still day time and it should stay awake); wash your face and brush your teeth; go to bed the same-ish time each night and set an alarm to wake up within the same hour each morning.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This routine will allow your body to recognize when it should be releasing melatonin into your body which helps you fall asleep. And when to release cortisol; which gives you energy in the morning and wakes you up. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
