So, we just discussed a handful of tips to rest better and avoid catching Corona. But that’s not all. We’ve talked a lot about the physical… but what leads the body is the brain. Let’s look at that a little. MIND YOUR MIND’S DIET In fact, while we’re on the topic of the subconscious and […]
So, I finally got a new phone. And, while you’d think that might be the opposite of a soporific (I mean who gets a new phone after not upgrading for four years and then doesn’t stay up all night uploading new apps?), it totally isn’t. In fact, for the first time in a handful of […]
You probably already know fiber’s friendly on your waistline. (If not, saunter on over to my other site and check for some sick midsection tips…) But did you know it can boost your snooze quality, too? That’s right. There’s a long list of vitamins and assorted micronutrients we require to rest well at night. And […]
So, you’re laying there and you can’t sleep. Why? It could be a zillion reasons. Sometimes it’s got physiological roots. You’ve just had an intense late night work out. Or a fight. Or you drank caffeine too late. But more often than not, it’s none of that. It’s just that the thought cars on your […]
Okay, so I haven’t tried glycine yet. To be fair, my life’s been so busy that the only time I spend online now is when I’m writing for you guys. Other than that, I’m either in my clinical rotation that starts at 6 A.M. every morning, working out, sleeping, or adulting. And, as part of […]
So we’ve outlined why moving all your daily tasks up and doing them earlier helps the DST segue. But how do we hack the rest of that daylight savings time issue? I mean, I can physically go to bed early… but what if I’m still not tired once I lie down? (When you know you […]
Really? It’s afternoon already? Yes, it’s officially here. Daylight savings has arrived, the clock shock has hit us, and we all feel cheated out of a full sixty minutes of our Sunday. (Actual footage of your boss shutting his door on you and your colleagues tomorrow morning while he takes a nap in his office…) […]
Like to to unwind with a nice jog after your job is done? Okay, maybe it’s not for everyone. But, winter aside, I love it. They say movement is medicine, and I definitely need a generous dose of the stuff after work. It’s a nice way to get back into my body after my brain’s […]
Bath bombs. Candles. Diffusers. You may have heard about all of these sniffable, hippie, new age answers for your insomnia. And you may have eyerolled so hard that your mug got stuck looking like the monster from The Grudge. I hear that. Up until a couple years ago, I thought the same. But something changed […]
You’ve probably heard of sleep hypnosis before. You listen to some sort of recording that tells you you’re sleepy and relaxed. It keeps doing this repeatedly, as you lay, eyes closed. And, before you know it, you’re out like a light on an overridden circuit. But let’s say that doesn’t work. Let’s say you get […]
