Before I woke up to write this post, I was cuddling in bed with Katie and said “bed is really my favorite place, so warm and cozy” as I snuggled in closer to her, the comforter practically covering my face…and I meant it. I could snuggle in bed forever.
For me sleep is like a magic button, a chance to reset and start over. If I have a terrible day and just can’t get out of my head, a good night’s rest allows me to forget that, wake up and be ready to (quite literally) “seize the day.”
Sleep is an opportunity to rest and heal, both mentally and physically; and getting a restful sleep is crucial to that new beginning each day.
I usually sleep through the night without any issues, but falling asleep has always been hard for me. Mainly because I can never seem to get my mind to slow down!!
Over time I’ve made a few new habits that seem to ease the anxiety of falling asleep:
- Write in a notebook that I keep on my bedside table, any of the thoughts I have while trying to fall asleep. That way I can get them out immediately and not waste time trying to remember them for the morning.
- CBD drops in my tea before bed, seem to relax my body and mind just a bit more than regular tea, although that’s great too.
- This Works line of sleep products (especially the Deep Sleep Pillow Spray).
#3 being the newest addition to my sleep routine and couldn’t be more pleased with the results!
Each This Works pillow spray, now available at Ulta Beauty, is formulated using a blend of 100% natural, therapeutic essential oils made to calm, relax, and comfort. 🙌🏼😁 In fact, Katie was helping me shoot yesterday and was so relaxed afterwards she had to take a nap haha. So I can’t speak for everyone, but it definitely helped us!!
The Deep Sleep Pillow Spray (found both in-store and online) is my favorite because it’s geared towards people who struggle to fall asleep; releasing an immediate burst of fragrance that is proven to calm a racing mind (👈🏼 always me).
Not to mention, This Works products are all natural sleep aids (and smell deliciously of lavender and chamomile)! It’s def not great to ingest sleep aids on a daily basis so I thank This Works for creating a more natural sleep solution, just a spritz away (and we all know how I love my spritzes 😜)!
So tonight, I’ll be kicking Daylight Saving Time in the butt again with my Deep Sleep Pillow Spray. Falling asleep with ease, to wake up feeling refreshed and ready to tackle the to-do’s. ✔️😁
Don’t forget This Works is now available at Ulta Beauty! So shop online or in-store (but the Deep Sleep Pillow Spray is currently the only product available in-store).
Sleep Together Calming Spray (found online): For those in need of relaxing before bed. I like spraying this around our bedroom, before going to bed, to create a generally calm atmosphere, encouraging a better night’s sleep.
