E11 Is It OK To Pause A Healthy Lifestyle?

One way to stack the deck in favour of the highest quality sleep experience is to craft the perfect restoration routine. A routine is a series of actions done repeatedly. Not all routines are helpful, or move you towards a predetermined goal, they’re simply routines due to repetition. You’ll see routines, even rituals, a more intentional form of routine, among many high achievers across a variety of professions. What makes routines so impactful is the ability to automate them and require little to no willpower. This makes consistency easier and as such, the opportunity for a maximum return even more likely. On today's episode of Your Extraordinary Life Chatham-Kent I shared my Perfect Restoration Routine in hope it would spark you to do the same! What I Covered: A 4 step process to creating a routine. This can be applied to anything, not just sleep! How to best prepare your body to maximize sleep quality and set the stage for productivity. What are the nutrient needs involved to enhance restorative sleep? The two additions I made to my sleep hygiene in the past 6 months that have been making a surprising and positive impact.
