THC gummies for sleep can help you fall asleep faster.
Sleep is the foundation of our overall health and well-being. Despite its importance, many people struggle with falling asleep, staying asleep, or achieving deep, restorative sleep. By focusing on science-backed strategies and incorporating natural wellness tips, you can transform your sleep routine and enjoy the restorative benefits of a good night’s rest.
Sleep Is Essential to Health
The American Academy of Sleep Medicine says that sleep is not just about feeling rested. It plays a critical role in cognitive function, mood, mental health, and physical health. According to the Academy, sleep is as vital as diet and exercise in maintaining our cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and metabolic health. If we skimp on sleep, the consequences ripple across our lives: diminished focus, increased irritability, weakened immunity, and a greater risk of suffering chronic health problems like diabetes and hypertension. On the other hand, a habit of healthy sleep strengthens memory, promotes emotional resilience, and reduces the risk of disease.
How to Sleep Better
Although standard sleep medication can be helpful, it often has negative side effects. Here are some natural alternatives.
Try cannabis
If you struggle to fall asleep and stay asleep, try cannabis products for sleep. Cannabis has naturally relaxing properties that may help you doze off. Many cannabinoids have sleep-enhancing properties. The most powerful of these are THC, CBD, and CBN, which are combined in our bestselling THC sleep gummies.
Get active
Regular exercise is good for your body and helps you fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and wake up more refreshed. Exercise…
- Boosts melatonin. Melatonin is a hormone that regulates sleep-wake cycles, helping you fall asleep much faster.
- Reduces stress and anxiety. Regular exercise lowers cortisol levels, which reduces stress, a frequent disturber of sleep.
- Regulates body temperature. Physical activity raises body temperature, which then drops 30 to 90 minutes later, a cooling effect that tells the body to prepare for sleep.
- Enhances mood. Exercise promotes the release of endorphins. Endorphins improve mood and create a health-promoting positive feedback loop.
Finish exercising at least two or three hours before bedtime to give your body a chance to cool off.
Create a sleep-friendly environment
- Keep it cool. Maintain a temperature of 60°F to 67°F, a level that helps regulate your body’s internal thermostat and promotes deeper slumber.
- Minimize exposure to light. To avoid disrupting your circadian rhythm, use blackout curtains or a sleep mask to block out light, and keep electronic devices out of the bedroom.
- Invest in quality bedding. Comfortable sheets, pillows, and mattresses promote restful sleep and reduce physical discomfort that may wake you up during the night.
CBD gummies enhance your workout and sleep routine by soothing aches and pains.
Follow a consistent schedule
Go to bed and get up at the same time every day, even on weekends. By reinforcing your natural circadian rhythm, a consistent schedule helps you fall asleep faster and wake up more refreshed. It also helps prevent social jet lag, i.e., “the discrepancy between biological time, determined by our internal body clock, and social times” dictated by obligations like school or work.
Avoid stimulants just before bedtime
At least four hours before bedtime, limit caffeine, nicotine, and other stimulants. Instead, try making herbal tea a part of your late evenings. A calming natural blend relaxes the mind and body and prepares you for rest. If you want something sweet, consider chamomile tea with honey or a small serving of tart cherries.
Try relaxation techniques
Embrace relaxation through these helpful techniques.
- Meditation. Focus on deep breathing to reduce stress and make it easier to drift off to sleep.
- Yoga or stretching. Gentle movements can increase blood flow and calm your nervous system, preparing your body for sleep.
- Aromatherapy. Use lavender, chamomile, or sandalwood essential oils to create a soothing and relaxing atmosphere.
Be careful what you eat
Heavy meals and spicy foods often disrupt sleep. Try to finish eating at least three hours before bedtime. Foods rich in tryptophan, magnesium, and melatonin like bananas, almonds, and tart cherries, perhaps with a glass of warm almond milk, may help you sleep better.
Limit screen time
The blue light from electronic screens suppresses the production of melatonin and keeps your brain on alert. Power down devices at least an hour before bedtime and do things like reading, writing a journal entry, or listening to peaceful music instead. Also, consider using blue-light-blocking glasses in the evening or switching your devices to night mode.
