6 Steps to a Good Night’s Sleep
Over the years, I have developed a fool proof way to make myself fall asleep. My sleep routine involves a lot of lavender, a little prep and a tiny backup.
I start with getting the room ready. When I try to sleep in a messy room, I can feel the presence of untidiness. Once I started picking up my room before bed, it really cleared my head for a good night’s sleep.
If you are someone who wakes up with headaches, it might be the dryness in the air that causes them. I always use a humidifier with a hint of lavender essential oil. I got my dehumidifier at Target, and I chose a design that can blend in with decor.
Next I use my Sleep lotion from Bath and Body Works on my legs and arms. I only use this lotion before I go to bed, so that way my sense memory recognized it as time to go to sleep.
I also have a little mix of Sweet Dreams essential oil to put behind my ears.
It’s also important to put away all the electronics.
My last resort is my handy Nyquil sleep aid. Sometimes, I just cant fall asleep because of my constant spinning thoughts. This non-addictive pill helps you fall asleep and stay asleep. Plus, it’s the only sleep aid that doesn’t make me drowsy in the morning.
