To ease body and mind

The rush of everyday contemporary is worthy of athlete. Waking up early, eating healthy, doing some physical activity, working and delivering performance, taking care of children - pets also tells - and family, finding friends. The task list has no end and can be a relevant stress factor.

With that in mind, this Sunday's Th Edit is to calm down, take a deep breath and prepare the week. Go there, take a coffee and settle on the couch, we wait!

FOR THE BODY

Do you know those days when you wake up with a smile on your face, ready to conquer the world? Well, the key to this may be on a good night's sleep. That's where melatonin comes into play.

This natural substance is produced by our own body and has a key role in regulating the rhythm of sleep. When the light begins to decrease, melatonin comes into action, preparing the terrain for a quiet and invigorating sleep.

So if you are fighting insomnia or just want to ensure energy to face the next day, melatonin can easily be found in supplements and foods such as nuts, fish and eggs.

For the soul

We all have different ways to get the stress out of our body. Here are some tips we found on Goop to help relieve the madness of modern life a little.

Take awareness of stress: tune your body and identify which parts of the body is maintaining tension, even if unconsciously.
Make a list of priorities: prioritize essential tasks and remove the ones you can expect to have more relaxation time.
Raise your mindset: replace negative thoughts with welcoming statements. Thinking positive is always the best choice.
Learn how to deal with stress: Practice exercises that help you better deal with stress. Breathing exercises and ice cream became famous for a reason.

Encourage your senses: Take advantage of nature to calm your mind and relieve stress.
Deeply rest: Value restorative sleep and practice conscious rest moments. No guilt for resting, combined?
Gratitude: Express gratitude daily, either through statements or sharing the reasons for your thanks with others.
