Being a parent is tough, and it becomes even harder when you are running on three hours of sleep. Many parents struggle to get the recommended 7-9 hours of sleep each night. Why? Well, a lot of it has to do with stress. Whether you have two kids, five, or just one, having children is exhausting and stressful. It can feel hard to wind down after a long day when you have anxieties keeping you up.
However, studies have shown that practicing gratitude before bed can help people sleep better and longer. Grateful thinking goes a long way and one way to practice gratitude is by keeping a gratitude journal.
