It’s not only Daylight Saving Time but also National Sleep Week, and we are sharing our tips and must-haves to feel your best this crazy time of year. 

A good night's sleep is crucial. But it's not only important to fall asleep but also stay asleep. Studies show that the average healthy adult should fall asleep in 10-20 minutes and sleep for 7-8 hours. Getting quality rest has a ripple effect on how you feel. But getting that 7-8 hours isn’t always possible, and ZzzQuil, the #1 sleep aid brand with non-habit-forming sleep aids and supplements to help you fall asleep fast and wake up feeling refreshed, knows that and how important a good night's sleep is.

They have ZzzQuil PURE Zzzs Melatonin Gummies formulated with an optimal level of melatonin, shown to help regulate your sleep cycle without next-day grogginess. It’s non-habit-forming, drug-free, gluten, lactose, and gelatin free. This month, for National Sleep Awareness Month, they want everyone to know that achieving better sleep is possible.

Check out their website, where they are busting all the myths about sleep and sharing a bunch of simple ways you can improve your sleep. Go to zzzquil.com to see "Better Sleep in 1-2-Zzz."

Your sleep environment and mattress play a critical role too. Studies have shown that excess heat can noticeably impede your body’s ability to rest. We all know the feeling of tossing and turning all night, too hot, stuffy, and uncomfortable. The mattress experts at Serta have a new Serta Arctic Sleep System with advanced cooling technology that pulls heat away from the body so you can sleep more comfortably. Unlike other mattresses that are just cool to the touch, or some that trap in heat, Serta Arctic gives hot sleepers all-night cooling relief, with 15 times better cooling power than previous product lines. Serta also has cooling memory foam pillows, mattress protectors, and sheets that all work together to help regulate your temperature. They have a special promotion on Serta Arctic Mattresses this week for Sleep Awareness Week. You can get $300 off through the 29th. Just visit serta.com and select retailers.

Now let’s talk comfy jammies. One brand we love is JJwinks. It has unbelievably comfortable awesome-looking loungewear, from shorts and pants to the coolest tops and dresses. And they all have built-in bras. They have a proprietary, what they call “Light Hug" technology, which feels just like that, a light hug. The company was created by two friends, Lisa Loyd and Kelly Morrissey, from LA, who wanted to go bra-free and be comfy all day long…mission accomplished. They're a carbon-neutral company too, so they consider the environmental impact in everything they do, from fabrics and dyes and even their mailers. And they're affordable too. Pieces start at $53. Check them out at jjwinks.com.

Finally, to make your room extra comfy and as inviting as possible, pillow spray, flowers on the nightstand, comfy slippers, and a robe next to the bed can make it feel like the most luxurious hotel.
