Who needs to work on their sleep hygiene? I underestimated the power of sleep for SO long and I had no interest in building a healthy night-time routine.
I was getting to bed at around 10-11pm and figured six hours of sleep each night was a solid effort….
Ohhh boy was I wrong. I needed at least 2 coffees to start my day and I was absolutely EXHAUSTED come 4pm.
Sleep is EVERYTHING.
It’s like charging your battery each night. If you don’t get enough quality sleep it’s like waking up at 75% battery each day.
This affects everything:
(Just to name a few!)
As a fellow anxiety warrior, I know first hand how poor sleep shuts down the whole park.
So I decided it was about time I developed my own bedtime routine so I could finally get a good night’s sleep and wake up with boundless energy – no stimulants required!
It took a bit of experimenting, but I’m proud to say I’ve become a routine QUEEN lately!
Try this checklist consistently for 2 weeks and come back to let me know how it’s working.
The key to a healthy night-time routine is getting to bed early!
I don’t know about you, but I feel so much more productive when I get an early start.
I want to share with you the same steps I recommend to my clients because it WORKS!
I had one client tell me yesterday that she’s been waking up before her alarm for the last week!
It’s SUPER important to keep this up on the weekends. When you stay out or wake up late two days in a row it makes waking up early Monday morning so much harder because it throws off your circadian rhythm.
Getting your sleep routine in check makes a world of difference to your clarity, energy, and productivity.
