390. 3 EASY Exercises to Get Better Sleep Tonight


Listen Later

We’ve all read about the importance of a good evening wind down routine. You know the drill - maintain a consistent bedtime, turn off your screen, dim your lights, avoid caffeine, etc. But how many nights do we find ourselves tossing and turning long after the lights have gone off? Or waking in the middle of the night unable to drift back to sleep?

What you may be missing is a quick bedtime routine that you can do, maybe even on your bed at night, that will help ease your joints and your muscles and help your mind wind down.

This week we’ll do a quick recap of WHY getting good quality sleep is so important, especially for women in midlife. Then I’m going to walk you through three simple exercises that take about 5 minutes, and that you can do from the comfort of your own bed. Get ready for a better night of sleep and a more refreshed morning!
