Getting a good nights sleep

sleep

savannah linerieI’ve never been a huge fan of sleep, generally finding it a bit of a nusicance but recently I just can’t get enough of it – it’s the best feeling! I’m sleeping better than ever; going to bed early and getting up early, I’m loving it so I thought I would share a few of my tips

1.Get tired

This may sound silly but my biggest recommendation has to be to do exercise. I’ve recently joined the gym and, since your muscles repair whilst you sleep, I’ve found that as soon as I hit my mattress, I fall straight asleep.

2. Get a good mattress

Theres nothing worse than laying for hours on an uncomfortable mattress. I recently upgraded my slightly older one for a brand new, memory foam one from Leesa and I am so happy with it! It took me a couple of weeks to get use to the memory foam but I now love it! It arrived in a small box and I did have to let it sit for a little while, to expand and take shape but it was really easy to order and set up.

3. Get some cute pyjamas

Okay so you might not really need these for a good nights sleep but looking cute always helps, right? My new favourite pair are from Nine by Savannah Miller. The whole range is super beautiful, vintage silhouettes of both nightwear and lingerie. I have been wearing mine loads now that the weather is a little warmer and it’s really comfortable!

4. Try some tea

Another little extra I have been trying are teas just before bed. Clippers have a whole range of night time teas which taste delicious and I find that the whole ritual of drinking tea before bed is very relaxing. If the tea itself helps me fall asleep then that’s a plus!

Would love to hear your tips in the comments.

    Love those pj’s! The best thing I ever did was buy a memory foam mattress topper from Amazon. Its way cheaper than buying a new matress but does the same job. Everyone of my family members have a matress topper now.

    my best advice is to become a parent, haha sounds silly but I swear I can never sleep enough since I had my son, and falling asleep is a total novelty. If I ever am struggling I tend to read, or think about something really boring! 🙂

    We really need a new mattress… But since I don’t know how long we’re going to live here I don’t feel like investing in one right now. So backaches and bad sleep it is :-S

    LOVE those pjs! Some silky pjs are a spoily treat for yourself and add a little bit of luxury to bed time. I would also recommend not using your laptop or phone when you’re about to go to bed as the bright light stimulates your brain and will stop you from sleeping. Get a good old fashioned book or magazine to send you into a peaceful slumber.
