4. Take a warm shower or bath.
Taking a warm shower or bath helps to relax the body and loosen up tense muscles. Use a peppermint, lavender or eucalyptus soap to further bring the tension out of sore or stressed muscles.
5. Drink chamomile or relaxing tea.
Drinking tea that is created from herbs that are known to calm and sooth is a great way to bring relaxation and tranquility to the mind and body. Use two tea bags to increase the potency of the herbs, add a bit of honey and drink while it’s warm to further activate the tea’s qualities.
6. Invest in a good mattress and pillows.
Having a good mattress to lay on and comfortable pillows to rest the head upon at night make all the difference when it comes to the quality of sleep you will receive at night. Investing in the right firmness in both products and the right size will help with relaxing the body and ushering the mind into a deep rem cycle. It may be a bit pricey, but making quality purchases will be worth the money.
