Bedtime stretches are one of the healthiest rituals we should all embrace before hitting the sack. If they’re not a part of your nighttime routine just yet, here’s why you should make time for them.
Better Sleep
If you have a tendency to wake up in the middle of the night and struggle to get a good night’s sleep, bedtime stretches are the way to go. They can improve the quality of sleep and help you feel more energized the next morning.
Injury Prevention
Stretching will help you develop better flexibility and mobility, and you’ll be much less likely to get injured in the long run.
Stress Relief
Developing a stretching habit will help you go to bed relaxed every night because this activity targets key areas where you hold tension. You’ll have no trouble falling asleep – and staying asleep – after a proper stretching session gets you in the right state of mind.
