Sleep is the most important natural stress reducer of them all. Too
little sleep leaves us cranky, irritable and on edge. Too much sleep can
leave us sluggish and depressed. Try to find the right balance that
allows you to feel well-rested and ready for the day. Promote better
sleep by establishing bedtime rituals that signal to your brain that
it’s time to fall asleep, avoid exercise in the three hours before sleep
or take a warm bath. Certain foods can also promote sleep, such as
carbohydrates, bananas, peanuts, figs, dairy and - of course, a certain
holiday favorite. However, avoid having a large meal
close to bedtime, because it may result in indigestion, reflux or heartburn.
