Tips for your best sleep:

  • Get sunlight in AM (between 6-8:30am) for 15-60 minutes
  • Stop caffeine at 12pm (or cut out entirely)
  • Exercise in the morning (rather than afternoon or evening)
  • Avoid screens 60 mins before bed
  • Sleep in total darkness
  • Ideal room temp for sleep is 60-68 F (16-20 C)
  • Warm shower or bath (with epsom salt) before bed
  • Be asleep before 10pm (we get the best sleep from 10pm-2am)
  • Write down all your thoughts before bed
