Kali wraps up the Lifestyle Habits Wrecking Your Sleep series with some important information about how sleep deprivation may be impacting your short and long term health.

Yes, finally: I'm talking about ignoring advice about screens before bedtime. But WHY is this important? (If you're supplementing with melatonin, you'll want to listen.) And WHY do we have trouble with this?

The last in the series of "Lifestyle Habits Wrecking Your Sleep" (so you can start doing things differently). For now!

After a short recap of previous habits, we'll talk about why being "good" with your food all day could actually be sabotaging your energy and making it difficult to sleep.

Many people looking to solve their sleep issues are working on their bedtime routine, & their nights. If you've done this and are still having trouble, it's because you're looking in the wrong place.

What is it about the DAY that makes it difficult for us to sleep? It's called "rest rhythm" -- and while your is likely a bit "off", you CAN reset it.

How much energy can your mind-body system handle before that energy needs to be discharged? We often think of food and drink as "fuel" (energy), but I'd like you to expand your definition of energy to include other, stimulating content and situations.

This can affect our sleep.  Good sleep is very important to good  health.  When we sleep well, we recharge our adrenals, detox, and repair  damage from injuries and daily wear and tear.

Knowing what condition your adrenals are in is very helpful, and the  proper support nutritionally can help them calm down if to revved up or  help them regenerate if they are burnt out.

But wait, there is more!

If our daily schedule, lifestyle is contributing to the high  stress/anxiety, we need to learn tools to help us deal with these  stressors or ways to remove them.  Supplementation is very important,  but addressing the why the adrenals/sleep was pushed out of balance is  key to healing.

Listen to Kali Patrick, Sleep Wellness Coach, with Kim Barnes Jefferson on the Fit Girl Magic Podcast!

When Kim started her Fit Girl Magic podcast, she wrote down like 67 different things she wanted to talk about. And one of the first 10 things she wrote down was SLEEP! Let’s face it, most of us just don't get enough of it.

Either you have little kids sneaking in your bed, asking for the 10th glass of water or your hormones are raging like you are a teenager again and  you aren’t sleeping... Let’s not even get into how you can’t sleep because you have so much on your damn mind, you just don't know how to shut it off! AHHH

You think you don’t need it and you think you can “live” and function without it. But not sleeping is doing more harm to our bodies than you want to believe it is. Well, guess what magic makers…. Kim finally found someone that can speak your language and help you with the sleep struggles you are facing!

Many people don't realize this as a factor in daytime exhaustion. They also don't recognize that this can make it harder for you to settle into a restful, relaxed state that's a prerequisite for falling asleep.
