Sleep 101: Yoga, CBD and Relaxation Tips

Sleep is an essential part of wellness, but is often one of the first things to get sacrificed during times of stress of busyness. We think we’ll “catch up” on the weekend, but somehow, we never quite feel refreshed. While I can’t make your life less busy (if you figure it out, let the rest of us know!), I can help you make the most out of the time you do have for relaxing!

Here’s a few things that happen when you don’t get enough sleep:

Sleepiness (no surprise there)
Mood Changes
Difficulty Concentrating and Impaired Performance
Memory and Thinking Problems
Disorientation, Hallucinations and Paranoia
Poor Planning Skills
Disorganization
Poor Driving and Delayed Reactions

As you can see, sleep impacts so much more than whether or not you’re feeling tired. Many people who use our products have shared that they use it to help them relax at the end of the day, so that they can get a fulfilling night’s sleep. Since so many of you have shared your struggles with getting a good night’s rest, I thought I’d share some helpful tips! Don’t forget to start off with some tincture, tea, capsules, softgels, or even a vape to help you set the tone for a relaxing night. Better yet, sign up for a subscription to make it even easier to have everything you need without having to think about it!

Here’s a great video with 3 simple yoga poses to help get your body ready to rest. Remember to keep breathing deeply and slowly as you do each one.

Want a longer yoga session to wind down from an intense day? This is a lovely, relaxing video for getting grounded, calming your mind, and relaxing your body. Personally, I prefer to do this with a nice, relaxing cup of Hemp Tea.
