These are the simple steps to a better night’s rest
Sleep quality and quality of life go hand in hand, and at a time when it feels like our minds hold more information than ever before, a good night's sleep becomes even more crucial. Paying attention to ‘sleep hygiene’ is one of the most straightforward ways that you can set yourself up for rest, creating both a nightly and daily routine that promotes consistent, uninterrupted sleep. The goal is that over time, these habits will make quality sleep come naturally, so read on for a better sleep playbook and two day and night sleep supporting supplements from Swisse that you can draw on when rest isn’t at its best.
Better Sleep Starts in the Morning
Regardless of whether it’s a weekday or a weekend, experts recommend waking up at the same time every day to establish a consistent sleep rhythm. By all means, keep a morning coffee in your list of non-negotiables, but because it’s a stimulant, caffeine can keep you wired even when you want to rest, so try to avoid it later in the day. Being physically active is also key, and can help address stress levels that may make turning off as you try and drift off even harder. Adding a supplement designed to help you wind down at night that you can take in the morning can be hugely beneficial, like Swisse Ultiboost Magnesium Glycinate Relax with L-Theanine. The calming blend of L-theanine and magnesium glycinate is designed to help you unwind from the inside out, the former a daytime hero for helping address the body’s natural response to stress while the latter supports muscle relaxation and energy production. Take two in the morning with food before getting on with your day.
The Wind Down
How you prepare for bed can determine how easily you’ll fall asleep, with experts recommending that you budget around 30 minutes for the optimal wind-down. If you can, start by building in a 60-minute pre-bed buffer time that is device-free, and call on a premium supplement like Swisse Ultiboost Magnesium Glycinate + Ashwagandha to help you on your way. A soothing combination that supports relaxation and unwinding, it includes ashwagandha, a herb traditionally used in Ayurvedic practice to support the nervous system and support the body’s natural ability to adapt to stress. Take two tablets an hour before bed for optimal results, and then once you hit the sheets, focus on relaxation to enhance your wind-down. Meditation and mindfulness can put you in the right mindset for bed, while even your night-time skincare ritual can act as a mental cue for your body that it is time to sleep.
The hero ingredient in both sleep supporting solutions is Magnesium Glycinate, a highly bio-available, chelated form of Magnesium with superior absorption that is gentle on stomachs. When used together, the dynamic duo of Swisse Ultiboost Magnesium Glycinate Relax with L-Theanine in the a.m. and Swisse Ultiboost Magnesium Glycinate + Ashwagandha in the p.m. are here to help you sleep better tonight – and every night.
