Sleep Hack#6: Take note of alcohol.
Some of our clients report better sleep when they drink- whilst it is true they may fall asleep faster, REM sleep is disrupted so you wont go into the deeper stages of sleep which is another reason why you might feel tired all day after a night out.
Of Course reducing/ limiting or avoiding alcohol is key but if this is not possible- we would suggest helping your body process it better:
- Stay away from beer and sugary cocktails and opt for clear spirits with soda water, whiskey or wine.
- Replace alcohol with water 1-2 hours before home time.
- You can also experiment with taking supplements that support your liver to help the detoxification process- Vitamin C, Milk Thistle, Glutathione and B Vitamins are all good ideas.
- When home drink another glass of water with some charcoal tablets.
