Holistic swaps for your bedroom
Your bedroom is more than just a place to sleep—it’s your sanctuary for rest, rejuvenation, and self-care. Making intentional swaps in your bedroom can transform it into a space that supports your overall wellness. From organic bedding to calming essential oils, these holistic swaps will elevate your nighttime routine and help you wake up feeling your best.
1. Switch to Organic Cotton Bedding
Your bedding matters more than you might think. Conventional sheets are often treated with synthetic dyes and chemicals. Organic cotton bedding, on the other hand, is free from harmful toxins and gentle on your skin. It’s breathable, hypoallergenic, and better for the planet—a win-win for restful, guilt-free sleep.
2. Diffuse Organic Liv Holistic Essential Oils
Set the mood for relaxation with Liv Holistic essential oils. Whether you’re winding down with lavender or elevating your mood with citrus blends, diffusing essential oils can help reduce stress and promote better sleep. For a soothing touch, try adding a few drops of essential oil to a DIY pillow spray.
3. Try Mouth Tape for Better Breathing
If you wake up with a dry mouth or struggle with snoring, mouth tape might be the game-changer you need. This simple tool encourages nasal breathing, which can improve sleep quality, oxygen intake, and even oral health.
4. Incorporate Red Light Therapy (discount code LIVHOLISTIC)
Red light therapy is a natural way to support your body’s circadian rhythm. By limiting exposure to harsh artificial light and using a red light lamp in the evening, you can signal to your brain that it’s time to wind down, making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep.
5. Moisturize with Beef Tallow
Beef tallow is an unexpected yet effective swap for your nighttime skincare routine. Rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, it nourishes and protects the skin without harmful chemicals. Apply a thin layer before bed for soft, hydrated skin by morning. Tallow is available at the Liv Holistic Storefront (342 State St, Hamburg, PA) and will soon be available to purchase online!
6. Relax with Magnesium Lotion
Magnesium lotion is a bedtime essential for relieving muscle tension, calming the nervous system, and promoting restful sleep. Massage it onto your legs, arms, or back to unwind after a long day and prepare your body for deep relaxation. This magnesium is available at the Liv Holistic storefront (342 State St, Hamburg, PA) and will soon be available to purchase online!
7. Gua Sha for Relaxation and Lymphatic Drainage
Incorporate a gua sha tool into your nightly routine to reduce facial tension, improve circulation, and support lymphatic drainage. Use it with a nourishing oil or serum to enhance the experience and wake up with a glowing complexion. This is also available at the Liv Holistic storefront (342 State St, Hamburg, PA) and will soon be available to purchase online!
8. Block Artificial Light with Blue Blocker Glasses (discount code LIVHOLISTIC)
The blue light from screens can disrupt your body’s melatonin production, making it harder to fall asleep. Blue blocker glasses are a simple and effective solution—wear them an hour or two before bed to protect your sleep and reduce eye strain.
9. Grounding Mat (discount code LIVHOLISTIC10)
A grounding mat is a fantastic addition to your bedroom for promoting holistic wellness. These mats simulate the natural grounding effect you experience when walking barefoot on the earth, which can help reduce inflammation, improve sleep quality, and even support stress management. Simply place the mat on your bed or under your feet while sitting, and connect it to a grounded outlet. It's an effortless way to incorporate the benefits of nature into your daily routine, all while you rest or relax.
Small Changes, Big Impact.
Creating a holistic bedroom doesn’t require an overnight overhaul. Start by incorporating one or two of these swaps, and build from there. With each intentional choice, you’ll find yourself sleeping better, feeling calmer, and embracing wellness in your daily life.
