How To Get Better Sleep

Consistent Wake up & Bed Times: Our body works in a 24 hour cycle, to enhance your sleep, pick a time you’re going to wake up and stick to it!

Exposure to Sunlight & Darkness: We are still using our same body clock ( circadian rhythm ) as we did when we were cavemen. Exposing our body to light first thing in the morning and darkness at night ( this means turning the lights off in the house at night when relaxing ) is the easiest thing you can do for your sleep.

No Caffeine After Midday: Caffeine blocks the receptors that make us fall asleep and feel tired. It’s half life is also 8 hours, so a coffee at midday half of it (1 shot =80mg) is still in your blood stream ( 40mg) at 8pm!!! Imagine having half a coffee at 8pm and expecting sleep well

No Screens Before Bed: Easier said then done yes, do I even do this well no. Try reading a chapter of a book right before you go to sleep, even if it’s 10 minutes.

Reduce Stress: You’re probably thinking , thats Jase easier said than done as well. Try journalling, meditation, mindfulness, reading a novel as a way to stop your thoughts spinning around your head.

Eat Your Dinner Earlier: The body does not want to be digesting big meals before sleep, try and eat your dinner earlier for consistent better sleep.
