Nighttime trick for daytime energy (takes 60 seconds)

A Harvard study found that people who try this one thing before bed wake up with tons more energy. {NAME}, Have you ever woken up after a full night’s sleep... And STILL felt tired? If so, you’re in good company. In today's overstimulated society, getting good sleep can feel like a struggle. And to make matters worse... Bad sleep has been linked to a host of nasty health problems — like weight gain, fatigue, foggy thinking, and poor mood to name a few.1 So today, I’m excited to share one of my FAVORITE “sleep better” tricks with you... To help you fall asleep faster, enjoy deeper rest, and wake up feeling refreshed and energized in the morning. How? The answer is actually easier than you might think… All you need is a WALL. You see, a Harvard study on sleep found that people who stretch more often enjoy higher-quality sleep.2 And here’s the exciting part: You don’t need a full stretching routine. Because research shows you can dramatically improve your sleep with just ONE simple pre-bedtime pose. It's called “Legs Up The Wall” and I actually learned it years ago when I started practicing yoga. It’s a gentle, relaxing pose almost anyone can do — even if it’s been a while since you last stretched, or you feel stiff as a board. Better yet? It only takes 60 seconds.   “Legs Up The Wall” This is an easy pose that you can try from the comfort of your home. Here’s how it works: Step 1: Sit cross-legged on the floor — facing a wall — with your knees softly touching the wall. Step 2: Gently lay your upper body down. So your head, shoulders, and back are pressed flat against the floor. Step 3: Lift your legs UP onto the wall. So your hamstrings, calves, and the back of your feet are resting softly against the wall.  The pose should feel COMFORTABLE and RELAXING. So please experiment with your position until you find the placement that feels best for you. After all, just 1 minute in this position — right before bed — can be all you need to enjoy deeper sleep. (Although the longer you can hold this pose, the better.) And you can enhance the stretch even more by taking slow, gentle, and deep breaths.  This stretch works so well for one simple reason: As your legs are in the air, GRAVITY stimulates blood flow from your legs back to your heart and brain — which promotes deeper restoration in your sleep. (Bonus tip: Next time you go to sleep, try placing a pillow under your feet. This can promote the same gravity-assisted circulation benefits. Plus, it feels fantastic!) So why not give this a try for yourself, {NAME}? After all, when you wake up feeling refreshed and energized — your whole day is already off to a great start. And getting a good night’s sleep in general is one of the BEST things you can do for your long-term health! Looking out for you, Steven Gundry, MD [Steven Gundry, MD](  Sources 1.
