Sleep. Oh sleep. Something I struggle with so, so, so much. Actually it's the reason I started researching and using essential oils. I can for sure be better with the amount of sleep I get (Why do I find it impossible to be in bed before midnight? Even when my morning begins at 4am?), but I have come so far! And these beauties are a huge reason why!
This week is teaching us how to get better sleep and the important health reasons why we must. I'm lucky enough to be teaming up with them to give away this amazing Sleepy Time Kit! These are my favorites, used every night, for calming my mind before bed, but also keeping me in the perfect, restful sleep.
Let's get learning! Giveaway info below!

"Sleep - you need it.
It's when your body heals itself, resets itself, and builds itself.
Poor sleep is a major risk factor of obesity. Ghrelin is a hormone released in the stomach that signals hunger in the brain. Levels are high before you eat, which is when the stomach is empty, and low after you eat. Leptin is a hormone released from fat cells. It suppresses hunger and signals fullness in the brain. When you do not get adequate sleep, the body makes more ghrelin and less leptin, leaving you hungry and increasing your appetite.
Things to try this week:
1. Go to bed 15 minutes earlier
2. Turn all screens off at least 30 minutes before bedtime
3. Build up to 7 1/2 - 8 1/2 hours per night
