I tried to sleep clean for two weeks and I changed my life
Believe me: the higher tendency of the well-being of 2017 is not a joke.
One of the main wellness trends in 2017 is theGoop-Approved "clean sleep", which has been popularized byGwyneth Paltrow In his 2016 book,Goop: clean beauty.As a clean diet, clean sleep believes that your general well-being depends on the decision-making that helps you get the best night's sleep. To do this, you must follow some basic rules: no caffeine to drink after 14 hours; No electronic device at least one hour before going to bed; Set yourself a strict stay and follow it even during the weekend; Keep the room dark and cool; And buy a copper pillow. Seems easy just? Well, some parts are and some parts are not. Having done it for two weeks, here's what I learned. And for more tips to get your best sleep ever, brush on these11 secrets approved by the doctor to fall asleep faster.
1 Reading before the bed is the best
A real millennium, I was skeptical about "the electrolytes attack your brain" spun theory by old duddy-duddies and the habit of falling asleep comfortably by watching television or pass through my iPhone. But it sounds like that sleep clinics say are true: the electronics stimulates the brain and inhibit the release of sleep neurotransmitters. Turn off my phone allowed me to disconnect social media stress and disgust during reading (rather than while watchingThis) gave me a lot more sweet dreams than the stressful nightmares with which I am usually prey to a more relaxing sleep. If you are not a big drive, do something else that leaves your body and your brain relax, like yoga or bubble bath, works too.
2 Fall asleep at the same time every night is the key
Like most people who work full-time, I usually go to a reasonable time during the week to get up at 7 o'clock in the morning every day, but party at night and sleep until the end of In the afternoon during the weekend. My own own sleep experience taught me that rumors are true: Messing with your overall time interrupts the capacity of our body's clock to regulate healthy sleep patterns. By going to bed between 22h and midnight every night, I could routinely wake up between 7 and 9 am every morning without any problem. In the second week, I do not even need an alarm clock! It was almost as if my brain awaken gently my body as it was used to wake up.
3 No alcohol before going to bed
Alcohol helps you fall asleep initially, but it also spoils your metabolic signals, leading you to get up in the middle of the night. You can still have, say, a glass of wine with dinner, but that's all and follow it with a few glasses of water for a good measure. Ideally, you should not drink anything after 20 hours, you do not find yourself to wake you up at Pee. And if you had a stressful day, try a natural cure, like the root of Valerian, to relax before going to bed.
4 Copper infused pillows are ultimate luxury
You do not need to buy a copper infused pillow, but Gwyneth (and the right Amazon people) swears that copper oxide fibers reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. There is a lot on the market, but the best criticisms have come with theIlluminated skin rejuvenation pillowcase, which at $ 60 is just at the CUSP of the amount I am ready to spend to totally change my life. I was skeptical at first, but the pillow is so silky smooth, I am convinced that it is to help. If you want to be extra luxuriant, you can also get the copper infused pillow mask and you really lean throughout the white white thing.
5 Get the Application Sleep Cycle
When I first decided to make the cleanliness of sleep, I wanted to find a way to scientifically measure my sleep quality that did not need to check in a sleep clinic. Lo and Here, I found the sleep cycle: an application that uses the accelerometer inside your iPhone to monitor your movements when you sleep. Before you go to bed, you have set up a 30-minute period during which you have to wake up (mine is from 7h to 7h30), and the app surrounds you with a soft vibration when you are in the scene The slightest sleep, which makes you feel much more rest than when you are captured immediately from REM. Set aside the claw factor because your iPhone literally lite you sleep is a great way to get hard statistics on your sleep performance, as well as an excellent alternative to a wake up.
Two weeks later, I realized that I have never been easily resting in all my life. Thank you, Gwyneth! And for more information on popular sleep trends, learnAll you need to know about the "coffee nap".
