Step#4 Bring the outside in - Plants help to clean the air as well as bringing calming green tones into the house. Replace any artificial fresheners or room scents with an essential oil burner. Burning some lavendar oil before bed can help relax mind and body before you let the day melt away in your Lily & Mortimer bedding.


Step #5 Switch Off - Banning screens from the bedroom is an important step to a great night's sleep. Research suggests that just two hours of backlit screen time can suppress the sleep hormone melatonin by 22%. Implement a post 9pm ban on screens and pick up that book you have been meaning to read.

 

Step #6 Sleep Well Live Well - Having completed the first four steps you will have more time and energy for the things you love. Create a space for your painting, reading, knitting, yoga, boxing, whatever re-energises you.
