Are you getting enough sleep? I know instinctually you're going to say no, never. But it's only because society tells you to work work work. I am here to tell you to rest rest rest. Have you ever had a gut wrenching no coming back from it fight with someone you love because you were tired or hungry? I am willing to be you have. Being tired is the root of so many problems you might be having. Get more sleep. It's ok to take a nap. I don't know why in America we are so rude to the nap culture. I've seen siesta in action and its amazing. I was 16 or 17 in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico and when everything shut down in the afternoon. Everything! Restaurants, shopping, all of it. And that's when I learned about 'siesta'. The beautiful art of taking a break/nap/rest every afternoon. It's straight up magical. Unless it's lunchtime and you're just trying to get a taco because you're 17 and hungover on spring break in Mexico. But that's another story for another day. Take a nap. The average sleep number for adults is 8 hours. Listen, there is no shame in my 9 hour sleep sessions. I believe in power restoring beauty of a nap. They don't call it beauty rest for nothing! I like to listen to a relaxation podcast, like a sleep story at nite. I told my husband that I had been listening to a sleep story about a Christmas Party and it was so good but I kept falling asleep...he said, 'isnt that the point?' Here are some of the best hacks to help you fall asleep. Good nite, I love you! https://www.buzzfeed.com/elizabethlilly/products-anyone-trouble-falling-asleep I am very interested in trying out #6.
