Here are\u00a0<strong>seven steps you can take to create a successful bedtime routine<\/strong>\u00a0that will give you more restful nights and more productive days.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>1. Set an alarm for bedtime<\/h3>\n<p>Try setting an alarm for one hour before you\u2019d like to be settled in bed to remind you that it\u2019s time to step out of your day and start winding down.<\/p>\n<h5><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4182 alignright\" style=\"font-size: 16px\" src=\"\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/02\/559008.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"154\" height=\"154\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/02\/559008.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/02\/559008-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/02\/559008-148x148.jpg 148w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 154px) 100vw, 154px\" \/><\/h5>\n<h3>2. Drink up<\/h3>\n<p>Since you end up going 6\u20138 hours without any liquid at all, drinking water throughout the day and before you hit the sack is essential to keeping yourself hydrated. Try adding<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/en_GB\/products\/lavender+\" class=\"broken_link\"><strong>\u00a0Lavender+ <\/strong><\/a>essential oil\u00a0to your water or herbal tea to calm your spirit. Aim for an hour before bed, so you aren\u2019t waking up in the middle of the night for a bathroom trip.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Give yourself a little face time<\/h3>\n<p>Make sure to give your skin and teeth the TLC they need. Taking time to establish and follow an important hygiene ritual will help you feel fresh and relaxed before bed and can signal to your brain that it\u2019s time to calm down.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Take notes for tomorrow<\/h3>\n<p>Write down a brief game plan for a productive tomorrow. While creating your list, remember to envision the kind of day you\u2019d like to have, how you\u2019d like to feel, and the top priorities you\u2019ve got in your sights. Get it down on paper and you won\u2019t spend hours trying to fall asleep thinking about what your day might look like.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Set yourself up for success<\/h3>\n<p>The night before, prepare your outfit, your breakfast and lunch or complete other tasks you\u2019d usually take care of in the morning. The fewer tasks looming over you, the quicker and happier you will be getting out of bed in the morning.<\/p>\n<h3>6. Ditch the tech and read a book<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px\">The light from electronic screens can trick your mind and body into thinking it\u2019s still light out. Try leaving technology out of your bedr<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4250 alignright\" src=\"\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/02\/PeaceCalming-124x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"68\" height=\"165\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/02\/PeaceCalming-124x300.jpg 124w, https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/02\/PeaceCalming.jpg 264w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 68px) 100vw, 68px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px\">oom to help you shift into to a calm, relaxed, and clear state.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>7.

Rubbing a couple of drops between your palms and brushing them over your pillow can also boost the relaxing aromas and can make jumping into a cloud of pillows and blankets feel extra luxurious.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>YL tip:\u00a0Did you know that\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/en_GB\/products\/valerian-essential-oil\" class=\"broken_link\"><strong>Valerian<\/strong> <\/a>essential oil has a calming and relaxing aroma?
