Wellbeing: Sleep & Relaxation

It’s a cliche, but there could be more truth behind getting your ‘beauty sleep’ than we may have thought. A good night’s rest is essential for the body to recover from daily stressors, and it plays a bigger role in maintaining a youthful appearance than you may realise.

It's the time the body takes to heal from any damage done during the day. When we sleep, the muscles relax and our circulation can improve, which helps with rebuilding collagen for plumper dewy skin, and activating recovery mode. Overnight, the body creates new cells which heal the skin from the inside out, beyond the epidermis, which helps the skin look bright and rejuvenated in the morning!
