Foundational Self Care: Sleep

😴Sleep is crucial to our overall health and just as important as pooping regularity and blood sugar balance.

Some benefits of getting a restful nights sleep are:

1️⃣ Be more energized and alert

2️⃣ Reduces stress and the risk of high blood pressure, heart attack and stroke

3️⃣ Reduces inflammation and the risk of diabetes and cancer

4️⃣ Improves memory and brain function

5️⃣ Promotes weight loss by balancing the hormones ghrelin and leptin that regulate appetite

6️⃣ Reduces risk of depression and anxiety

7️⃣ Detoxifies the body. Avoid eating less than 2 hours before bed. The body can’t detox if it has to digest.

8️⃣ Boost the immune system

9️⃣ Helps regulate blood sugar and increase insulin sensitivity

🔟 Improves emotions and social interactions

Sweet Dreams! 😴🌙💫
