What’s your Spring sleep routine?
Spring is finally here. Calming sunset shades, playful patterns, breezy natural fabrics mark the arrival of a new season. To mark this step change, let’s talk about sleep tips and tricks today. Our dream team spills the beans on what helps them sleep their best this Spring.
TIP ONE
Think about your bed
Spring is a great time to change your sheets from dark and moody to light and breezy. Light, breathable fabrics are perfect for the warmer weather. Plus they’re 100% natural and available in juicy new-season colours and prints.
“I keep my bedtime constant, and tend to wake up at the same time too. It helps my body fall into a rhythm and I sleep better this way.”

TIP TWO
Time and temp
Is being too cold or too hot keeping you awake at night? Studies show that setting your sleep temperature to anywhere between 15-19 degrees leads to an ideal night. For a bit more help, try sleeping and waking up at the same time – consistency helps signal to our body that it’s time to rest.
“Since I'm a hot sleeper and love linen sheets, Eve Linen is for me! And I try to read an actual book, rather than my mobile just before I go to sleep.”

TIP THREE
Dark secrets
All this extra daylight is wonderful, but what about sleep times? According to sleep experts, darkness helps to stimulate the production of melatonin, the sleepy hormone. It also helps to keep you asleep until you complete all sleeping cycles. An eye mask or dark curtains are a great cloak of darkness.
"I like to fall asleep to a progressive relaxation or a body scan meditation."

TIP FOUR
Relax your mind
A short guided meditation or relaxing tunes are great to put a sleepy spell on your mind before you sleep.
"I like to put on the diffuser with lavender, have a cup of sleepy tea and turn off all the big lights. I also love listening to a relaxing sleep playlist.”
Grace Gillies
Art Director
Final words
Finally, aim to exercise each day and try not to engage in mentally stimulating activities before bed. We like using the last hour or so before bed to relax – having a warm bath or reading helps.
