I actually wasn’t aware of most of this info, but I was happy to learn that seeing morning sunlight on my walk to work during the week and to the gym on weekends increases my morning cortisol, which is a good thing. Also, the fact that I don’t drink caffeine in the morning means I don’t have a mid day slump! My takeaway is that if I have a choice, I will opt for morning exercise, rather than afternoon exercise (on days off from work).
This week I am practicing 20 mins of me time to do my mobility work and deep breathing. <3 I love sleep and find it is what I am choosing over my early early wake ups for workouts. Little catch up has been needed. The early toothbrushing does also help me get to bed earlier. ahhhh bed!
“By getting fewer than 6 hours of sleep for 5 nights in a row, you have a 45% increase in fine lines and wrinkles.”
Well, that there is a great reason to start getting more sleep! According to my Fitbit app, I have had five nights in the past month with less than six hours of sleep (but, thankfully not five nights in a row).
Happy to have you here!
I feel like we watched this last year too, but it was a good reminder about delaying caffeine and getting win on our eyes as soon as possible.
The info around the cold water “dunks” was very interesting…but I still don’t know if it’s for me 🤔
