Self-Care Suggestion: Get Better Sleep
Hey, friend! Can we talk about sleep for a second?
If you’re anything like me, getting a good night’s rest can sometimes feel like chasing a unicorn—especially when you’re juggling family life, work, and about a million other things. I get it.
But here’s the deal: sleep is EVERYTHING. It’s not just about feeling less groggy in the morning (although, yes, please!). It’s about having the energy to be present for your kids, feeling strong enough to tackle the day, and giving your body a chance to heal and recharge.
Over the years, I’ve tested more sleep remedies than I can count—some worked, some didn’t, and some were just plain weird. But today, I’m sharing the tried-and-true favorites that have made a real difference for me and my family. These are the products I use, love, and trust to help us all get the rest we need.
1. Vagus Nerve Travel Set by OSEA
Okay, this little gem is a game-changer. The Vagus Nerve Travel Set is like carrying calm in a bottle. I roll it on my neck whenever I’m feeling stressed or restless, and it’s an instant mood-shifter. Bonus: it’s perfect for travel days when everything feels a little chaotic.

2. Magnesium Glycinate
You’ve probably heard me rave about magnesium before, and there’s a reason—it works! Magnesium Glycinate helps relax your muscles and calm your mind, making it a staple in my nighttime routine. And yes, I double-checked: it’s non-toxic and family-safe (but always chat with your doctor first!).
Shop it here: Magnesium Glycinate
3. Lavender Essential Oil
Lavender oil is like a warm hug in a bottle. I love diffusing it in the kids’ rooms at night or adding a few drops to their bath. It’s soothing, relaxing, and the scent just makes everything feel a little more peaceful.

4. Weighted Blanket
If you’ve never tried a weighted blanket, you’re missing out. It’s like a cozy, calming hug that helps your body settle into sleep mode. Everyone in my family has one, and it’s been a game-changer for restful nights.

5. Biocharger NG
This one’s a bit of an investment, but hear me out: the Biocharger has a specific sleep “recipe” that helps promote relaxation and better sleep. Think of it as high-tech self-care. It’s not something we use every night, but when we do, it makes a noticeable difference.

6. Sleep Patches by LifeWave
These little patches are my go-to for nights when my mind won’t stop racing. They use light therapy to support restful sleep without any chemicals or meds. Super easy, super effective.

7. Kids’ Sleep Gummies
Let’s not forget about the kiddos! These gummies are a lifesaver on nights when winding down feels impossible. They’re gentle, natural, and a part of our bedtime routine (after a chat with the pediatrician, of course!).

8. Blackout Curtains
This is such a simple swap, but it makes a HUGE difference. Blackout curtains help block out unwanted light, creating the perfect sleep environment. My kids love them, and honestly, so do I!

9. The Ultimate Bath Soak
Nothing beats a warm bath before bed, and this soak is my absolute favorite. It’s the perfect way to relax your body and mind after a long day of mom-ing.
