Great quality rest has been a major topic in the world of wellness. So much so that increasing numbers of people are getting sleep testing done.
Thanks to this trend, some are creating an almost spa-level comfort in their home to ensure quality sleep.
Having a peaceful space greatly contributes to achieving restful sleep, as demonstrated by the sudden surge of TikTok users talking about sleepmaxxing.
For those not familiar, sleepmaxxing is the use of “hacks” to achieve the best quality sleep.
It's a way for people to put their health into their own hands and invest in self-care. This trend also helps to manage stress and mental wellness.
Due to the DIY nature of this trend, what works really depends on the person. First, it’s important to decide how much effort you want to put into sleepmaxxing.
Some supplements help boost your melatonin and ease insomnia. Contact your healthcare provider to determine which might be best for you.
There are also unconventional sleepmaxxing remedies like mouth taping and bright light therapy.
This practice involves using a special tape to cover your mouth while sleeping. It may have potential benefits like reducing dry mouth and snoring.
The downside to this sleepmaxxing technique is that it may not be ideal for people who have sleep apnea.
Bright light, on the other hand, can do little harm. Getting in bright light and soaking up some vitamin D helps to balance your sleep schedule.
Overall though, it is best to assess your bedtime routine and try new things one at a time.
