What do you wear to bed? Sleepwear can be super stylish, but most importantly, it needs to be comfortable. Lissa Coffey gives us the run-down on natural fabrics, or the option of going “au naturel!” Are you team PJs or team “birthday suit?”

You're not staying still all night. Your body naturally moves 40-60 times during sleep, including dozens of full body turns. Cramped sleeping quarters transform rest into a nightly wrestling match that fragments your sleep cycles and leaves you exhausted.

Green décor is fabulous in the bedroom. Lissa Coffey shows us how to bring the outdoors in with eco-friendly pieces that provide a warm, soothing atmosphere, perfect for a great night’s sleep! Is your home eco-friendly?

Coffee lovers: your afternoon pick-me-up is sabotaging tonight's sleep. Caffeine blocks sleep hormones for 6+ hours. Make 2 PM your cutoff! #BetterSleepTips

Stress is inevitable, but letting it steal your sleep doesn't have to be. Research shows 26% of women and 16% of men struggle with weekly sleep troubles, while chronic stress damages immune, digestive, and cardiovascular systems. bettersleep.org/blog/sleep-ref…

Research shows mattresses 5-7 years old may no longer provide proper comfort and support. Oklahoma State University found that participants sleeping on new mattresses reported significant improvements regardless of age or weight. When's the last time you evaluated your mattress?

Think Green Soup is all about split peas? Guess again! @lissacoffey shares a yummy recipe for Green Soup that is packed with health benefits and also promotes good sleep. Do you have a recipe to share with us? We’d love to see it!

Going from full-speed to sleep mode doesn't work — your body needs a bridge. Create a 30-60 minute wind-down routine with calming activities. The key is consistency. Your body learns to recognize these signals that sleep is approaching. bettersleep.org/blog/the-ultim…

Spring isn't just for flowers — it's time to refresh your sleep space too! After losing an hour to spring forward (plus research shows we lose an extra 40 minutes adjusting), your bedroom deserves attention. Transform your room into a sleep sanctuary: bettersleep.org/blog/bedroom-s…

Your bedroom environment directly impacts sleep quality, yet most of us ignore obvious stressors! Transform your space with ruthless decluttering, blackout curtains, dim red nightlights, air-purifying plants, and a strict no-screens policy. bettersleep.org/blog/the-ultim…

GREEN tea is truly a health super-hero! It contains plant-based antioxidant compounds that help prevent cell damage. Lissa Coffey explains the best way to drink green tea, and how it can also help us to sleep better! How do you like your green tea? #BetterSleepTips

Transform your nights with strategic lighting. Power down screens an hour before sleep and finish in complete darkness. Your circadian rhythm will thank you with faster sleep onset and better quality rest. bettersleep.org/blog/lighting-…

That "extra hour" of sleep you're planning to get before spring forward? Your body's circadian rhythm says nice try.

Blue light isn't just annoying, it's actively suppressing your sleep hormones for twice as long as warm light. Switch to warm bulbs, use red night lights, and ban screens 2-3 hours before bed. bettersleep.org/blog/lighting-…

Your mattress gets attention, but the wrong pillow sabotages sleep just as much. Whether you need the cloud-like luxury of down, the adaptive support of memory foam, or special designs for CPAP machines, there's a pillow engineered for your specific needs. bettersleep.org/mattress-acces…

March is all about GREEN and Lissa Coffey is bringing us some great tips with green themes to help us get that great night’s sleep! Today it’s all about the plants – and two of the BEST plants to bring into the bedroom. Do you have plants in your bedroom?

Daylight Saving Time is right around the corner, but it doesn't have to wreck your sleep for weeks! Start adjusting bedtime 15 minutes earlier for several days before the change, commit to 7-8 hours nightly, finish eating 2-3 hours before bed, and stay active during the day.

Time changes don't have to derail your child's sleep! Start adjusting bedtimes by 10-15 minutes daily in the week leading up to the change, maintain consistent routines, and optimize their sleep environment with darkness and cool temperatures. bettersleep.org/better-sleep/t…
