SLEEP & RELAXATION
Good sleep is the basis for our health and well-being. Only if we get enough sleep can the regeneration processes that affect the immune system, hormone production, growth, wound healing and processing of the day's events take place. It is no wonder that sleep disorders are associated with many health problems and severely impair our quality of life.

Banish mobile phones, laptops & co. from the bedroom
The short-wave light from the display inhibits the production of the sleep hormone melatonin. This is a hormone produced naturally in the body, which is released in the pineal gland (small gland in the brain) when it is dark and regulates the day/night rhythm. In addition, constant accessibility via social media causes chronic restlessness.
A cup of herbal tea in the evening
Herbs such as passionflower, lemon balm, lavender or hops have a relaxing effect and help you switch off.
Fresh air in the bedroom
Avoid excessively warm temperatures in the bedroom. 18 degrees or less is ideal. If possible, leave the window ajar overnight, but if this is not possible, ventilate generously before going to bed.
Darkness in the bedroom
The production of our sleep hormone melatonin is dependent on darkness. If it is too bright in the bedroom, too little melatonin is produced and the quality of sleep suffers. You should therefore choose thick curtains or blinds for your bedroom.
Only light food in the evening
Fatty and rich foods put a strain on digestion. This is why heartburn often occurs at night. A light diet prevents digestive problems at night. However, if you have gone overboard in the evening, bitter substances and alkaline medicinal waters can help.
