10 Tips for a Spring Night In

With the clocks going forward last weekend, my sleeping has gotten a little out of sync. Yeah, it might only be an hour – but 60 mins makes a difference to your beauty sleep when, like me, you need all the time you can get! To help settle down for the night, Sofology sent me a little Spring Night In kit, complete with items perfect for a little chill time on my settee, which inspired me to put together my Top 10 Tips for a fabulous Spring Night In.

1. Make sure you have everything you need to get comfortable at home. Treat yo’self. I’m talking all of the above; fluffy socks, lip balm and hot chocolate to boot.
2. Light a candle – this is one of my favourite ways of feeling relaxed. Floral candles are a lovely way to get a spring scent into your home without having to venture outside!
3. Shop your stash. You know all those sample sachets and bubble baths you get at Christmas that you never find the time to use? Now’s your time!
4. Pop on a face mask; a simple yet effective way of transporting yourself to a spa like feeling for ten minutes. Go for a deep cleanse mask to clear your pores and really feel refreshed.
5. Switch it all off – go wifi-less for two hours before bed. It might be hard to feel the FOMO of social media for a bit, but trust me, this will so help you to fall asleep better by preventing your mind from racing.
6. Make sure your home is a relaxing environment to be in. Aside from lighting candles, change your bedsheets and refresh your sofa to get that fresh feeling as you snuggle down for a chill. This little sofa care kit from Sofology is a nice little kit.
7. Have a wholesome dinner; eat your five a day and eat well. It’ll help to settle your stomach and get your metabolism going whilst you sleep.
8. But don’t forget to treat yourself! A secret chocolate snack is the perfect indulgence for a cosy night in, just don’t go overboard.
9. Grab your pet and give it a cuddle. Sonny is the perfect night in companion – look at my little snuggle bunny.
10. …But if you aren’t a pet momma like me, grab your boyf, girlf, best mate or favourite cuddly toy to snuggle down and enjoy a little downtime. Just look how much Sonny loves Sofology’s Neal the Sloth!

Hopefully I’ve give you a little Spring Night In inspiration if you’re looking for the best way to settle before bedtime this season. If you have any of your own tips, please leave them in a comment down below so I can add them to my next advice post!
