SLEEP SUNDAY – 3 MORE IDEAS TO HELP YOU INTO THE LAND OF NOD…

Sleep deprivation is hitting so many more people at the moment. Stress with COVID-19 is the biggest problem then not being as active as usual or unable to exercise all contribute to a disturbed sleep. So, this week on Sleep Sunday I am writing on a few different ways to help you to get to sleep and stay asleep until daybreak.

Something new to try if you have not done so before are these snooze gummies from Starpowa, available from Holland & Barrett @ £19.99 for 30. Or, direct from Starpowa who has them in offer for half price at the moment.

Starpowa Snooze gummies are formulated for a restful sleep. Each gummy contains 5-HTP, L-Theanine, Chamomile, Lavender, Griffonia Seed, Montmorency cherry, Vitamin B6, Asparagus Racemosus, Lemon Balm Leaf and more,

Lavender contributes to optimal relaxation. Simply take one tasty black cherry gummy per day. I take mine about an hour before I go to bed.

Another great buy is the Nanu Sleep range. If you or your partner have different optimum sleep temperatures then this duvet is for you. Nanu’s Hot & Not duvet can provide ultimate comfort for the both of you. The duvet is split into two seamless halves so you can choose how cool or warm you want to be. Warmth levels vary from 4.5 tog, for those who prefer a cool nights sleep ( that’s me) to a toasty 15 tog (phew) if you prefer the snug as a bug experience. They can also design you a perfect pillow to go with it taking everything in consideration from how you like to sleep to the perfect weight of your pillow. Duvet’s from Nanu start from £50.

Ashwagandha way to sleep. Ashwagandha has been used for centuries in Indian Ayurvedic medicine. It is known as an adaptogen, thanks to its ability to adapt to the body’s needs, reducing anxiety and stress, and encouraging a good nights sleep. It controls the production of the stress hormones and allows our body to retain natural sleeping rhythms. Try Pukka Wholistic Ashwagandha £20.99 for 60 capsules from Amazon.
