Beauty Sleep with Sleep + Glow

Beauty Sleep is my top tip and favorite tactic to good skin, good health, and a balanced life. Getting 7-8 hours a night is a MUST. (Shout out to all my Mom friends who get 2-3 hours of sleep a night, I credit you MAJORLY)
.
Sleep is one of the most healing things your body does. It even lowers your cortisol levels (stress hormones) which we could all benefit from.
.
My cheatsheet to good sleep includes:
.
😴 no caffeine after 2pm (this includes green tea)
.
🌀blue-blocking glasses at least 1 hour before bed (available on my amazon list for $10)
.
⚠️turn off all artificial lights at least 1 hour before bed (I don’t have any artificial light besides my salt lamps and living room lamps which I replaced with dim colored bulbs from Home Depot (I don’t want to F with my circadian rhythm)
.
🌙Activate “night shift” mode on your screens and devices in the evenings
.
💦I spray magnesium on the bottom of my feet at night (also avail on my amazon list)
.
😴I sleep in pajamas every night- NOT gym or lounge clothes
.
☕️ Ease into sleep with tea. Mint tea is always nearby. It’s so soothing right before bed and is great for digestion (me and @eddiesworld had some last night)
.
🌿I diffuse @youngliving lavender in my oil diffuser
.
💧I turn on the humidifier
.
❄️I keep the temperatures cooler at night somewhere around 64 degrees (cough @miltiadiskastanis )
.
