An hour or two before bed, I take a big hot bath with a couple of drops of lavender essential oil. The combination of the calming water and the relaxing fragrance of lavender helps me to dose off quickly by the time I'm ready for bed. My muscles loosen up, my mind relaxes, and I feel serene. Adding bath salts makes it even better, they help with tight muscles, joint pains, and so much more; I like the Ahava Mineral Bath Salts from Sephora.
I am attached to a couple of medical devices at all times, so I can never really sleep in my ideal positions because it hurts a bit to lie on them. So, my trick to fall asleep in any position is to pretend that my breath is —starting with my toes— slowly filling me up with something heavy like sand or water. I’m usually asleep before the “water” reaches my top.
My number one tip is to just keep a routine, whatever that may be! By having a steady nighttime ritual, i find I consistently prioritize sleep.
Personally, I sleep best when I start to wind down about an hour before I want to fall asleep, by doing my PM skincare routine, using a rollerball with some essential oils (usually a lavender mix) behind my ears, and making sure the lights are dimmer than usual while doing so. Using a sleep mask (the ones that cover your eyes) has been SO helpful to maintain consistent light/darkness throughout the year when the sun is coming up at different times.
I can't wait to see what everyone shares! I'm sure there will be lots of great tips to add into my routine.
My best sleep advice is no screens within an hour before bed. On busy nights make it a half hour, just anything to disconnect your brain from that stimuli and wind down. No TV, no phone, no computers/tablets etc. I like to use that hour of time to take a hot shower and do a mask while drinking a cup of hot tea and doing a crossword book. Put on GLOW RECIPE - Watermelon Glow Sleeping Mask on the way to bed and get a good nights sleep on a Slip Silk Pillowcase - Standard/Queen Pink to wake up glowing and with great hair!
Every night right before bed I massage oil on my nails and cuticles and follow with a good heavy cream. Keeps them looking nice and moisturized.
I sleep my best if I work out 30-45 minutes about two hours before bed, wash up, and then use Drunk Elephant Virgin Marula Luxury Face Oil 1 oz/ 30 mLor GLOW RECIPE - Watermelon Glow Sleeping Mask. I go to bed feeling healthier and refreshed; I wake up with soft skin. If I had a particularly rough day, I throw in eye gels for a while before using the oil/mask. I keep gels in my fridge for an extra cooling effect. They do occasionally come out mid day too since I primarily work from home. Overall, it’s about destressing.
I second those that say cats help and lower the temperature. I can’t sleep if my feet are hot and cats are perfect nighttime buddies.
I use a meditation app and sometimes enter virtual reality via Oculus Go (incredible immersive meditation surroundings). I also love ASMR binaural videos to relax. Sleep quality and meditation are Important to me in 2019!
I diffuse or apply essentials before I go to bed. Depending on my mood, I create a mix using lavender, chamomille, eucalyptus, cedar wood or pine. I am also trying a sample of It Works Sleep Plus + Pillow Spray. I will report back!
@SephoraBIC I always make sure to put on beauty oil YOUTH TO THE PEOPLE - Superberry Hydrate + Glow Oil as the last step before I go to bed as well as LANEIGE - Lip Sleeping Mask on my lips and spray my face with CAUDALIE - Beauty Elixir to wake up to hydrated, glowy, plump skin and lips.
Own a cat - or, in my case, two, lol!
I’m not an instant sleeper and when I can’t sleep, I’ll putz on my phone. My cats on the other hand have noooo trouble sleeping, ha! The very moment that I crawl into bed: They’re there! They’ll instantly find a path to my arms or pillow, invading all of my personal space, ha! And, I love it! They remind me to put my phone away, to get comfy and to rest. Their purrs, warmth and furry cuddles makes it soooo easy!
Second tip: For a more sound sleep, keep the bedroom temperature cool if you can.
Lastly, I always keep a BKR bottle full of water, by the bed, to hydrate when I wake up. 🙂
I've been playing with scents lately, spritzing my pillow before lying down. I've been using perfume samples I liked but that didn't wear well on my skin, but I recently got a sample of This Works Deep Sleep Pillow Spray too. Wow, it smells amazing and is so soothing...really seems to help me drift off.
I stay up until I feel very, very tired, and then put Bite Agave Lip Mask on my lips and go to bed. If I am not really tired yet, I read until I fall asleep. The room is cool, dark, quiet.
My cats are purring or sleeping. Sleep follows.
