i want to nail the perfect sleep routine for when i start training again in november here is what im thinking so far → comfy bedding / pillows (any excuse to buy fresh bedding lol) → dark room/eye mask + ear plugs → magnesium before bed → no phone 1 hour before sleeping → electronics out of the room is there any other suggestions/findings you recommend?

Spitballing some recs; Cherry juice helps naturally release melatonin but you got to get REAL cherries For magnesium make sure you get the type you need that works best 4 sleep No phone established sleep routine so ur brain gets used to wind down I like also doing a mindfulness exercise, listening to yoga nidra, or whatever music helps set up a relaxing atmosphere For comfy bedding make sure your mattress is good and your pillow works good for you before changing out sheets For bedroom sheets I recommend cotton and higher thread count, sateen is great. Marshall’s and tjmaxx in the us will sometimes have high thread count cotton sateen sheets from Ralph Lauren for very reasonable pricing and pillowcases I always recommend silk over satin so your hair doesn’t frizz and it isn’t too hot I don’t follow this rule but I think it helps to own cute pajamas that you only wear to sleep - gets your brain into the right mindset Another one I don’t follow well - don’t eat 2 hours before sleeping
