Wellness Challenge

Good Morning! 

 

Do you struggle to fall asleep at night or have difficulty staying asleep?  If you have any sleep problems and aren't getting the deep, restful sleep you need, it's probably causing issues in your body and fatigue during the day, poor recovery from workouts, mood swings and more.   

 

Sleep is the body's rest cycle.  Good sleep quality is important in improving a person's overall health and feeling refreshed when you wake up in the morning. 

 

This month's challenge will be to track your sleep.  Along with the tracker,  I have also attached some tips and suggestions on how to prepare for a good night's sleep and setting bedtime routines.    Also, throughout the month, I will send other articles on how to get back to sleep when you wake up, how to deal with insomnia and foods that can help with sleep.  Hopefully these tips and suggestions can help you feel energized and vibrant to get through your day with ease. 

 

At the end of the month, send in your tracker and I will put your name in for a drawing. 


Sweet dreams, 

Debbie
