Alcohol – Sleep – Recovery 🌙🥱

Did you know alcohol is linked to broken sleep patterns, which can reduce the production of growth hormone — crucial for muscle recovery? 💤 Even one night of drinking can send your body into recovery mode rather than rest mode 🛌

Instead of a nightcap, try a gentle evening stretch — just 5–10 minutes before bed. It calms the nervous system, helps your brain unwind and supports deeper, more restorative sleep 🧘‍♀️

That’s far more likely to help you bounce back the next day, whatever you’ve got planned 🌞

Tip for the day: Sip a herbal tea instead of alcohol tonight before your 5-minute stretch ☕🌿

Your joints, energy and skin will thank you in the morning ✨
