Sleeping Beauty: 10 Essential Tips for Women's Restful Nights


  1. Prioritize winding down: I make it a point to unwind before bed by engaging in calming activities like reading, journaling, or practicing gentle yoga. This helps signal to my body that it's time to relax and prepare for sleep. Since we are talking about sleep, a clever thing to do would be to read a book about good sleep: 4 Weeks to Better Sleep by Dr Michael Mosley.

  2. Create a cozy sleep environment: I ensure my bedroom is a tranquil sanctuary by keeping it dark, cool, and free from distractions like screens or clutter. Investing in comfortable bedding and pillows also makes a big difference in my sleep quality.

  3. Stick to a consistent sleep schedule: I try to go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, even on weekends. This helps regulate my body's internal clock and promotes more restful sleep, which is great for Circadian rhythm.

  4. Limit caffeine and alcohol intake: Avoid consuming caffeine and alcohol in the hours leading up to bedtime, as they can interfere with your ability to fall asleep and stay asleep. I don't drink alcohol at all, because I don't like it plus it's not healthy, not even in small doses. In fact, last year new Nordic Nutrition Recommendations were published: "Since no safe limit for alcohol consumption can be provided, the recommendation is that everyone should avoid drinking alcohol." So, cut it out or switch to non-alcoholic drinks, like Altina Drinks.  

  5. Practice relaxation techniques: I incorporate relaxation techniques like deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, or meditation into my bedtime routine to calm my mind and body before sleep.

  6. Be mindful of what you eat before bed: I avoid heavy or spicy meals close to bedtime, as they can cause discomfort and disrupt my sleep. Instead, I opt for light, easily digestible snacks if I'm hungry before bed.

  7. Stay active during the day: Regular exercise helps me feel more energized during the day and promotes better sleep at night. I aim to incorporate physical activity into my daily routine, whether it's going for a walk, practicing yoga, or hitting the gym.

  8. Limit screen time before bed: I try to avoid screens like smartphones, tablets, and laptops for at least an hour before bedtime. The blue light emitted by these devices can interfere with my body's natural sleep-wake cycle and make it harder to fall asleep.

  9. Establish a relaxing bedtime routine: I've developed a soothing bedtime routine that helps signal to my body that it's time to wind down for the night. This might include taking a warm bath, sipping herbal tea, or listening to calming music.

  10. Consider adding supplements to your nighttime routine. myBrainCo supplements are meticulously crafted in TGA-licensed facilities in Australia, adhering to the highest GMP quality standards.
