How To Get A Good Night's Sleep
29th Jan 2019
We Brits love our sleep, but with busy lives, hectic work schedules – and a growing addiction to technology – many are struggling to get the full eight hours recommended by experts. A good night’s rest boosts communication skills and aids memory, creativity and decision-making. But a 2018 survey revealed the average Briton gets just six hours and 19 minutes sleep a night, with work-related stress, illness, money worries, emailing and checking social media just some of the things keeping us awake at night.
Spa director and wellness expert Lina Lotto says: “Life today is lived at such a fast pace – a good night’s sleep is more essential than ever to restore the body and mind and help combat the pressures we are under. The bathroom is one of the few refuges in the home where you can lock the door and have a little time for yourself, relaxing the mind and body and helping you wind down at the end of a busy day. Several studies have shown how warming the body induces sleep, so a bath is a really simple, yet effective way, to help those who are struggling to sleep at night".
With this in mind, Lin and the team at SenSpa have created a collection of Sleep Therapy products designed to soothe and nourish, with wonderful fragrances that will leave you feeling tranquil, peaceful and in the right frame of mind for a good night’s sleep.
