It’s pretty hard to leap into action when you’re not well rested. Not to mention your metabolism shifts to sloth mode, making it virtually impossible to burn fat. A lack of sleep dulls your brain’s decision-making ability, and, well, you know how this story goes…
Aim for 7-9 hours per night. Keep your room cool and dark, have a bedtime routine that includes no phone or computer before bed (literally you right now) and try using a sleep tracker like SleepBot to help you gauge your shuteye.
I love this simple breathing exercise to help halt my endless thought patterns: Breathe in a full deep breath for 4 counts, hold for 7, and exhale for 8. Repeat four times. You’ll be blissed out and slipping into delicious sleep in no time.
