How to Build the Perfect Nighttime Routine for Rest & Recovery
Wind down, sleep deeper, and wake up ready. Use this easy checklist to calm your mind, support recovery, and set up a better tomorrow.
Great days start the night before. A consistent nighttime routine helps your body switch from “go mode” to recovery—so you fall asleep faster, sleep deeper, and wake with steadier energy. Below is a simple, flexible plan you can start tonight, plus product tips to make it effortless.
Why a routine matters
Your brain loves patterns. Repeating the same steps each night trains your body to expect sleep—lowering stress signals and making it easier to drift off. Over time, a solid routine means better recovery, improved mood, and more stable energy the next day.
A calm 30-minute wind-down
0–5 minutes: Dim & disconnect
- Lower lights and switch screens to “night mode,” or put phones away.
- Play gentle music or white noise to signal calm.
5–10 minutes: Offload your mind
- Write a quick “brain dump” (tomorrow’s top 3 tasks). Closes loops so your mind can relax.
- Optional: light gratitude note—two things that went well today.
10–20 minutes: Body care = self-care
- Warm shower or face cleanse to reduce tension.
- Lock in hydration with Hydra Glow—dewy, comfortable skin supports a calmer wind-down.
- Gentle mobility: 4–5 deep breaths, neck/shoulder rolls, light hamstring stretch.
20–30 minutes: Transition to bed
- Make a caffeine-free tea or warm milk.
- If you want extra support falling asleep, try Dream Gummies 30–45 minutes before lights out.
- Read paper pages or listen to an audiobook—keep it relaxing.
Smart evening nutrition
- Finish dinner 2–3 hours before bed. Lighter, earlier meals are easier to digest.
- Balance your plate: protein + colorful vegetables + slow carbs.
- Late-night hunger? Choose a small, simple snack (yogurt, a few nuts, or a half banana).
- Daily gut support: Consistency with a probiotic like Gut Glow can help digestion feel calmer at night.
- Morning foundation: A scoop of Glow Greens (or advanced Clean Greens) sets up better energy and fewer evening cravings.
Set your sleep environment
- Cool, dark, quiet: Use blackout curtains, a fan, and white noise if needed.
- Bedroom = sleep & calm: Keep work and clutter out if you can.
- Consistent schedule: Aim for the same sleep/wake times, even on weekends.
Helpful supplements (optional)
- Dream Gummies for a gentle nudge into sleep.
- Hydra Glow to seal in hydration overnight.
- Gut Glow for daily digestive support that complements nighttime rest.
- If you drink evening smoothies, try a half scoop of Choco Glow as a cozy hot cocoa.
End your day on purpose
