✈️DESTINATION - Picacho Peak, Arizona - May 27 - June 2
Do you like poppy flowers? If you happen to follow the 2023 Spring 5% Challenge chat room you’d of seen a picture of poppies!! The member is @jeanhickokhaley1 who does live in AZ and posted this. The picture is below and is simply gorgeous! We want to give her credit for it.
We’ll be going to Picacho Peak in Arizona where we’ll see poppies and also other flowers of Arizona.
Last week's new LTGL was freggies which have so many benefits. One of those is our digestive tract. To also help our digestive tract and so much more we’ll be working on a Sleep ROUTINE.
📝Living the Good Life – Sleep Routine and Freggies
A good evening routine promotes relaxation and better sleep. Creating and maintaining this routine provides a sense of calm, and something to look forward to. This regularity eases day-to-day stresses.
As adults, we may be lax at what time we go to bed, but having a set bedtime is beneficial to our health and quality of sleep. Consider your evening routine starting after dinner. What do you usually do in the evening? Do you have set times to accomplish these things? This week make a bedtime countdown schedule for yourself. Start with setting your bedtime, then back up from there. What preparation can you do tonight, to make tomorrow a better day? What tasks do you need to accomplish before bedtime? Be realistic, there are times you will be going to bed later and that is ok, still have some structure in your timing so there is a sense of importance about going to bed and having a great sleep.
Some parts of your evening routine can be done earlier in the evening so there is less to do right before bedtime. For instance, brushing your teeth can be done any time after dinner. If you are not going out, give yourself permission to get into your pajamas earlier. Doing these tasks can start the process of relaxation and make the transition into a great sleep much easier.
