What keeps you up at night?Worries about your family members? Your finances? Your health? Our country? Feartoo much caffeine or a big meal closer to bedtimeblue light haunted by past mistakes and regret and shame?Sleep is essential for optimal health and we spend about 1/3 of our lives doing it! But these days anxiety levels are high and finding sufficient rest can be a bit of a challenge. This episode is mostly common knowledge (you know google-able)…you’ve heard most your life…but I wanted to pull all the info together, condense it, and to remind you that as Christians, sound sleep IS possible. So kick off your shoes and fluff up your pillow. Let’s take a deep dive into the notion of how to experience peaceful nightly sleep.  And all this with the backdrop of Psalm 3!KEY CATEGORIESDAILY HEALTH ROUTINESLEEP ENVIRONMENTPRE-BEDTIME BEST PRACTICESBRAIN ACTIONS WHILE SLEEPINGMORNING MUST DO'SSleep Aids (Amazon favorites and best sellers)Melatonin Gummies for Adults: https://amzn.to/4fSUXgmMagnesium Gummies for Adults: https://amzn.to/3HwExxHHerbal Organic Chamomile Tea: https://amzn.to/4oTOlCnLinen and Room Spray: https://amzn.to/4lTSq73Sleep Mask: https://amzn.to/4lTSEuVEar Plugs: https://amzn.to/4oVS3vjBlue Light Glasses: https://amzn.to/4fT52dcBed Pillows: https://amzn.to/3JzyVTJFlannel Sheet Set: https://amzn.to/3JSE49vCotton Sheet Set: https://amzn.to/4lJGiFxWeighted Blanket: https://amzn.to/4lJGiFxJOIN THE FREE & INFORMAL ANXIETY ALGORITHM BOOK STUDY: https://mailchi.mp/cdc3415d853e/aa-book-groupCONNECT WITH VICTORIA:*NEW RELEASE: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pickleball Passion A Marriage Devotional: 21 Days to a Stronger Connection on and off the Court⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://amzn.to/48wnvaV*⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CHOOSE 2 THINK 365-DAY DEVOTIONAL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠:⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amzn.to/3Hcl7v1*⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CHOOSE 2 THINK JOURNAL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: https://amzn.to/3WvinNDEMAIL: [email protected] ⁠⁠PODCAST WEBSITE: www.choose2thinkpodcast.comMINISTRY WEBSITE:⁠⁠ www.choose2think.coYOUTUBE:⁠⁠ www.youtube.com/channel/UCz8Z2B9TtXvWn0RKelVY5DQ ⁠⁠FACEBOOK:⁠⁠ www.facebook.com/groups/choose2think⁠⁠INSTAGRAM⁠⁠: www.instagram.com/victoriadwalkerlydon/*When you click on these Amazon affiliate links, I may earn a teeny commission from qualifying purchases at no extra cost to you.
