Those that know me well will know that sleep isn’t always
high on my agenda. If I get 5 hours a night I have done well. This
means that ‘double sleep Friday’ is important to me.
Somehow it has become a bit ‘cissy’ to want lots of sleep –
but it’s actually absolutely crucial to get a decent night’s sleep most
nights. What is the right amount? Most studies suggest 7 hours a
night. Without that we function less well physically, emotionally and
mentally and it’s really hard to lose weight.
Sleep begins with a good routine (bath, quiet time, no
caffeine and no electronic devices) , a cool bedroom and a note book and pen so
that if you have a sudden ‘great idea’ at 3 a.m. you can jot it down and leave
it till the morning.
Try it for a week, see how much better you feel. Yes,
I know, I will try too!
