7 Days In!

Here we are 7 days in to our new "small change" regime!

I hope all went well and you managed to reduce, if not give up, the coffee and take on board more water!

I can honestly say the tiredness hit me on Monday night!  However, the Brain Fog has cleared and I am now feeling much sharper.

It's amazing what the build up of coffee does to you.  Try to avoid coffee from now on, and certainly after 2 pm as it takes up to 8 hrs for a cup of coffee to pass through your system - you don't want to be getting to bed too late!

Which leads me nicely on to this weeks change:

Getting more sleep

People underestimate the power of sleep in keeping the body free of disease.

So I suggest that you go to bed at a consistent time, ideally in bed by 10 pm and asleep for 10.30 pm.  This allows for all the necessary physiological and psychological mending to take place which is crucial for a fully functioning body and mind.

And best of all its FREE!!!

If you are a person that goes to bed really late - aim for going to bed each night 10 minutes early so that the body can adjust to the new routine.

If you are a person who likes to read gadgets, such as kindles and IPads, be aware that you are increasing your stress hormone.  This means getting to sleep, or maintaining a good sleep, is reduced. 

Keep going with the water and reduced coffee/no coffee and start the new sleep routine.

By doing so I am certain that you will see the difference in your ability to concentrate and the amount of energy you have.

Sweet dreams!
