Bedtime Stretches

I don’t know what is wrong with me, but every night I get super energized at bed time. I can’t help it. Whenever I lay down to go to bed, I feel like I should go out and run a marathon. I’ve been like this for as long as I can remember. I can be struggling to keep my eyes open one minute and as soon as I lay down I have so much energy. Every night, I have to get up and walk around my bedroom until I’m tired again. It takes about a half hour of walking for me to settle down. It’s weird.
Anyways, I found stretches on Pinterest that are supposed to help you sleep better. I figure I should give them a try. The website recommended eight stretches to reduce stress. Let me tell you—it worked.

I only had to walk 15 minutes after doing those stretches. I felt so relaxed and centered. I feel right asleep and I stayed asleep.
It was great. Maybe I should take up yoga.
