Challenge Tips

Night Owl No More

Ever feel like you could sleep forever, but you can't seem to catch those z's at night? The reason might surprise you — it all starts with how you power up your mornings.

A productive, energizing morning routine sets the stage for a deeper, more restful sleep later that night. Here’s how:

1. Sunlight exposure: Morning sunlight helps regulate your circadian rhythm. Get some sunlight exposure (even just 15 minutes) within the first hour of waking.

2. Exercise energizes: Regular physical activity promotes better sleep, but aim for morning workouts over evening sessions.

3. Healthy habits set the tone: Starting your day with healthy choices, like a nutritious breakfast, sets a positive tone for the entire day, including sleep.
