Sleep better to enjoy a happier relationship

Struggling in your relationship to find a healthy balance? Not sure how to grab the attention of that special someone on Valentine's day? Your love life is not taking off? Have you considered that your quality of sleep may be affecting your love life massively? 

It is statistically proven that lack of sleep or reduced quality of sleep can drastically affect your daily mood, and in turn affect your love life! In this week's blog, we will be exploring all the ways you can boost your valentines with the help of a good night's sleep.

Relationships and Sleep

Did you know that sleeping next to someone you truly love is fantastic for your health! In fact, sleeping next to a loved one helps to lower your stress levels, and blood pressure, as well as reducing anxieties, boost your immune system and improves quality of sleep!

This can be the truth for many people, on the other hand a lot of couples disagree! For many people, if something about their sleeping environment is “off” then this can highly jeopardise your quality of sleep. You and your partner's circadian rhythms, more commonly known as body clocks, may differ so much that it affects both of your qualities of sleep. 

Another leading factor in the reduction of sleep quality is the noise your partner may be making throughout the night. Having a partner who struggles with snoring or sleep apnea causes a huge disruption to your sleeping routine. A snoring partner is one of the leading factors to couples parting ways when it comes to sleep time! Utilising earplugs is a great way to keep close to your partner, whilst blocking out sounds. If you personally suffer from snoring or sleep apnea, visiting a sleep specialist or your local GP is a great way to find a sleep solution for your snoring issues.

Another issue couples struggle with massively during the night is a noisy mattress as you move! When you or your partner moves and your mattress instantly creaks, this automatically wakes either you or your partner up during the night! Investing in a good quality mattress is vital to prevent creaky noises from waking you both throughout the night.

How is your sleep life affecting your love life?

Lack of sleep or poor quality of sleep can lead to issues such as depression, obesity, impairment in immunities, high blood pressure, diabetes, heart attacks and even heart failure or strokes. All of which are serious issues that affect your health massively as well as stopping you from achieving your fullest potential in the sector of love. 

Interestingly, lack of sleep massively affects sex drive, making you less able to be closer to the one you love or kick off a new budding romance. As well as this, sleep deprivation affects your physical appearance, giving you visible signs of tiredness through sagging, red swollen and dark eyes. Sleep deprivation is also strongly associated with visible signs of ageing, causing more fine lines and wrinkles. 

It is vital you are getting enough sleep (recommended 7-9 hours per night) to obtain the best love life possible! Attracting your perfect love requires full attention, positivity, a normal sex drive and a physically healthy complexion!
