sleep

Let's face it, we all need more sleep.

Online searches about odd dreams and sleep deprivation have shot up during our Shelter in Place Order. Google searches have skyrocketed to over 200% in the last month.

There's many myths that have been spread around for years in regard to sleep. Hearing the debunking of some of these may be quite a comforting relief to you.

If you're wondering what you can do to have a surge of happiness, just nap.

Although many of us will enjoy the extra hour of sunlight, chances are we are going to struggle to keep it together for the next month.

Even if you can only carve out a few hours, make rest a priority. It can make the rest of your days not only more pleasant, but more productive, too.

I've found that the mornings when I rise early enough to have a bit of quiet time before the mad rush of the day begins, the entire day flows more smoothly.

We may not even realize the things we may be doing to interfere with our sleep cycle. We can create new habits and engage in behaviors that will help us.

Just like you did when trying to get to bed earlier, setting a plan in place and creating morning rituals can certainly ease the pain.

Starting a new habit can feel unnatural at first. Don’t give up. Do your best to get to sleep before midnight and wake up earlier—at the same time every day.

Ok it's not the button itself, but you hitting that button.

Some of these we already know. However--DOING them can make all the difference in the world.
