Take a relaxing bath

Taking a bath that has a neutral temperature does wonders to relax the body. Getting the water a similar temperature to your body calms the nervous system and naturally helps to slow down your breathing.

 

Reading before bed

Take a break from your screen and pick up a good book. Looking at the light of a phone or TV just before you try to sleep affects the production of melatonin, meaning your sleep cycle is more likely to be interrupted.

 

Move your body

Movement such as yoga or pilates allows the mind to be drawn back to the breath and slow down. There are plenty of amazing classes online, making it easier to fit the practice around a busy schedule.

 

Write it down

Writing down any worries, concerns or stressors coming up in the week allows them to feel far more manageable. A nice journal that you enjoy writing in can make all the difference too!
