Have you ever had one of those perfect night sleeps, that leave you feeling fresh and well? That is what Sleepmaxxing is targeting. How do we get to the ultimate potential of our sleep?

Sleep Hygiene

Sleep hygiene is the recommended ways to get on track for a regular sleep schedule. This can be targeted at people who suffer from insomnia, depression, and/or anxiety. But these tips are great for anyone trying to get a good night’s rest and hit your ultimate sleepmaxxing.

• Regular bedtime
• Avoid caffeine and stimulants
• Exercise
• No electronics for 1 hour before bed
• Pre bedtime routine

Make sure to stick to a set bedtime and avoid caffeine/stimulants prior to bed. Cut yourself off coffee 8 hours before bedtime. If you are going to bed at 11 pm, stop drinking caffeine by 3 pm. One crucial sleep hygiene tip is no electronics one hour before bed. Your brain needs the time to decompress and wind down after a day. Using electronics stimulates your brain and body to be awake.

Sleep Environment

• Cool room
• No light
• Comfortable bed
• Loose fitting pajamas
• White noise machine
• Ear plugs
• Black out curtains
• Sleep mask

Sleepmaxxing can work well, if you create the perfect sleep environment. You want to have a cool room with a comfortable bed. Pajamas should be loose and not restricting in anyway. Use a white noise machine to block out noise. We use the hatch at our house. Also, make sure the room is pitch black. We used these black out sheets for behind our blinds. They were super easy to install and let no light in!

Make sure to focus on your sleep environment and sleep hygiene to reach the potential of sleepmaxxing.

Sweet Dreams!
