When our clients struggle in almost any area of their fitness

… there’s one question at the top of our list to help figure out what’s happening.

“How’s your sleep?”

Getting your sleep habits under control is a super important “basic” that will help skyrocket your results.

It impacts everything in your body, right down to the cellular level.

We're talking about things like your: health, fitness, body composition, hormones, stress levels, appetite, mood, ability to concentrate, immune system, and even aging.

And … did you know that while you sleep, your brain actually “cleanses” itself?

Researchers discovered that cerebrospinal fluid washes in and out of our brain while we sleep, helping eliminate metabolic “trash” that accumulates during the day.

Over the long term, lack of sleep is correlated with dementia, Alzheimer’s, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes.

An extensive review of studies linked too little sleep to an increased risk of obesity by 89% in children and 55% in adults.

Pretty eye-opening, right?

That’s why it’s SO important to find what works for YOU so that you can get 7-9 hours of sleep every night.

Here are eight tips to improve your sleep (and your results) naturally:

  • Get sunlight daily, but avoid blue light (from TVs, computers, and devices) at night.
  • Avoid caffeine after your morning cup of coffee. Caffeine can stay in your system for 6-8 hours.
  • Wake up, go to bed simultaneously every day/night, and avoid daytime naps longer than 15-30 minutes.
  • Avoid alcohol because it can interfere with hormones related to sleep … plus it’s linked with sleep apnea.
  • Optimize your bedroom for sleep: make sure it’s quiet, dark, comfy, and serene, and that it’s at the right temperature for you (not too hot or cold).
  • Avoid eating for a few hours before bed because it can disrupt your hormones (this is a sneaky one that’s worth tracking).
    Get in a workout, but not too close to bedtime.
  • Wind down before you go to bed: take a relaxing bath or shower, listen to quiet music, read a book, etc.

And if you try all of those tips and STILL can’t sleep, be sure to tell your healthcare provider the next time you have an appointment.
