How to Biohack your Sleep

“Sleep is essential to every process in the body, affecting our physical and mental functioning the next day, our ability to fight disease and develop immunity, and our metabolism and chronic disease risk. Sleep is truly interdisciplinary because it touches every aspect of health.” Erica Janssen, Research Assistant Professor of Nutritional Sciences¹

Are you tired of feeling tired? Here are some ways you can biohack your way to better rest:

Keep a consistent sleep schedule: Try to go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, even on weekends. This will help regulate your body's natural sleep cycle.

Create a relaxing environment: Dim the lights, put away electronic devices, and practice relaxation techniques like deep breathing or meditation to calm your mind before bed.

Choose healthy bedtime snacks: Avoid heavy, fatty, or sugary foods before bedtime, and opt for light snacks like a handful of nuts or a piece of fruit.

Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body function properly, and avoid drinking too much before bedtime to prevent waking up to use the restroom.

Make your sleep space comfortable: Invest in a supportive mattress, comfortable pillows, and soft, breathable bedding to create an inviting sleep environment.

Keep your sleep space cool: Adjust your bedroom temperature to around 65°F (18°C) to help your body relax and fall asleep faster.

Consider supplements: By adding Reishi to your daily bedtime routine, it may improve your deep sleep, reduce stress and support your immune system.*

Lion’s Mane is commonly known to improve REM sleep.*

Both of these extracts are available in The PM Pack. Pair these mushrooms together to wind down at night and prepare for a restful sleep.

Biohack your sleep to get the best rest possible and get ready to wake up feeling refreshed and ready to tackle the day.
