16 tools to help maximize sleep—and minimize stress:
is a choose-your-own-adventure dreamquest, where one can sink into meditative seaside sounds, or take a scenic train ride to dial down the day. According to doctor of acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicineDOAM, sleep issues are on the rise for a multitude of reasons. As the director of Eastern medicine at, a luxury wellness center in Chicago that mirrors the attentiveness of members’-only clubs, Subotich sees firsthand that sleep hygiene deserves more education.
Subotich recognizes that unchecked stress levels make it harder to physically reboot. “From an Eastern perspective, nighttime is when we rest, digest, and sleep,” she says of the time when certain organs take a break while others clear out toxins. Closer to the surface, research shows the rate of skin renewal doubles, collagen production accelerates, and cell damage actually reverses while you sleep, according to.
There’s also a cascade of downsides to disrupted rest, affecting everything from mood and cognitive performance to skin flare-ups. “Lack of sleep increases production of the stress hormone cortisol, which has a negative effect on skin, decreases skin rejuvenation, and worsens inflammatory conditions and acne,” Murphy-Rose warns. Subotich also suggests refraining from eating three hours before bedtime, to power down the digestive system. Ideally, she says, one would be dreaming by 11 p.m.
The current vogue for overnight products makes good sense: That extended contact with the skin allows active ingredients to work uninterrupted, according to Murphy-Rose. “For the driest skin, overnight moisturizing masks are an excellent choice,” says the dermatologist, who looks for humectants like hyaluronic acid and glycerin as well as nourishing lipids to lock in moisture.
can be a sleeper secret for healthy maintenance—especially for fine-hair types that need a post-treatment rinse in order to enjoy any level of body or bounce.
