My Favorite Sleep Hacks!

I received a phone call last month and was asked to give a speech to a business group. My task was to teach this group how to live longer, healthier lives with more energy and joy. Oh, and I had to do it all in fifty minutes.

Challenge accepted.

But where do you start when people have busy lives and don’t have much time to start a new wellness routine? Start with sleep.

When you sleep, your body goes to work, cleaning out junk.

During sleep, your body removes rogue cells, makes repairs, and prepares for the next day.

Not getting enough sleep affects your hormones, cardiovascular system, and brain.

Did you know that getting less than 6.5 hours of sleep a night also increases your appetite? Researchers have discovered that you will crave about 200+ additional calories per day. Not a big deal for a day or two; however, those extra calories will add a pound of weight every 18 days.

When people ask me what habits I’ve changed since cancer, improving sleep is in my top 3.

Listen to today’s short episode while I share five of my favorite sleep hacks.

Momentous

These are my two favorite products from Momentous: Creatine and Collagen Peptides.

I’ve been using them all summer, and I’m happy to now tell you about them! I like to try products on myself before passing them along to you 🙂

I use the Collagen Peptides in my coffee to add protein. I find it helps stabilize my blood sugar and keep me from getting the coffee “jitters.”

I’ve been using creatine for almost three months. One of my favorite benefits is how it helps powers my muscles and mind. Creatine replenishes ATP, your body’s primary energy currency, to support strength, power, recovery, lean muscle growth, and cognitive performance.
