I would never ever ever tell you to buy something that I don’t actually love, but this one has seriously been a game changer for me. Ask my friends, I’ve told them all about it. But don’t get one because of me. I’m only 1 review.

Anyway, I’ve almost always had a hard time falling asleep at night but for years and years was always up at 5am for yoga or the gym. Once grief set in a couple years ago (I’ll post about grief “time tables” later) my schedule was upside down. I couldn’t fall asleep but now, I couldn’t get up. This is normal. Grief and mourning will do this to you. I thought I was crazy. I am not crazy.

But wait, there’s more!

This year while I was traveling, I discovered a sunrise lamp. Maybe everyone knows about these. Best way to wake up. The light starts out dim and gets brighter like a sunrise – duh. Soooo I obvi got on amazon and found a cute bedside one.

YOU GUYS…. I don’t set a normal sound alarm anymore. The light wakes me up! Also, never tried white noise, originally that’s what I was searching for and found this clock/whitenoise/alarm/lamp all in one. The sound of the tide rolling in and out and I AM OUT in 15 minutes. Don’t get me wrong, this is sometimes coupled with sleepy time tea or a Unisom…. but those have always been a part of my routine.

*there was a $10 coupon on this when I bought mine and it looks like it still applies, not sure for how long.

Oh oh! I’ve got another sleep hack I’ll have to share. I’ll find a link and post that one later.

nighty night, sleep tight
