This simple ritual may be the secret to a great night's sleep

When sleep is interrupted, so is your life. When you have great night's sleep, your mind, body and soul regenerate themselves.

A clear mind and a clear conscience are a good start to helping you have a good nights sleep. We can't help with your conscience but we might have a few tips for clearing your mind for a restful night. If you take a few steps before bed each night it can really help to give you a great nights sleep.

So many people suffer with insomnia. I bet there is not one of you who doesn't have a mother, aunt, sister or brother who doesn't sleep well. Sleep deprivation is a form of torture. We can go without food for longer than we can go without sleep. Sleep is a vital part of having a happy and content lifestyle. If you feel like you are missing out on sleep, we have a few tips that have helped us along the way.

Establish a nighttime routine that incorporates a few of these steps. This little ritual might help to clear your mind from the previous day. First up is Heath and Heather Night Time Tea €3.29. Make a cuppa a couple of hours before bed. Ingredients like chamomile and orange blossoms help to calm your mind and put you in a sleepy mood.

Secondly, turn off the blue light on your phone. When you do this (in your settings) your phone will take on a brownish appearance. It won't have the same glare. If you look at it in the middle of the night it won't have such a wakeful affect on your senses.

Finally get yourself some Deep Sleep Pillow Spray €31.99. This set had the pillow spray that you spritz on your pillow before you go to sleep. It has essential oils of lavender and chamomile to turn your room into a sleep-inducing haven and help you fall into a deep slumber.
