Struggling with sleep at the moment?
It’s really common at this busy time of year with so many thoughts competing for your attention.
Throw in some late nights, perhaps a little more food and alcohol than usual and it’s no surprise your slumber is disrupted.
If you’ve woken up after a difficult night’s sleep here are some simple things you can do today to help:
- Opt for higher protein meals – especially breakfast
- Favour protein-based snacks if you get hungry (fish, chicken, eggs)
- Take regular movement breaks for daylight and fresh air (perhaps a quick lunchtime walk)
- Have caffeine as needed BUT stop at 12pm
- Tonight try a simple wind down routine with candles and a some light stretching before bed
- Think about any boundaries you might need to put in place to ensure you’re looking after your health
Hope it’s a better night tonight.
