Establishing Better Sleep for Back to School

It’s all about better sleep for me – especially when the school year rolls around. My husband and I tend to be laid back and less strict with our kids’ bedtimes during the summer months. After all, the summer is when the kids can really let loose, especially with no school the next morning! Every day is a new adventure in the summer with beach night bonfires, late dinners, and sunset swims. But when school rolls around, bedtimes are usually in place and schedules are a must!

Now that we’re nearing the upcoming school year, it’s time to get back on track. Usually, that means a solid week or two of trying to adjust to an early bedtime for the school year. (That goes for both the kids and my husband and me!) We all tend to get into a routine of going to bed and getting up later during the summer, but that’s not something we can do during the school year.

Luckily, we’ve got a secret weapon this year – Natrol. Natrol Melatonin is a drug-free way to help us fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer, ensuring that we all get better sleep so that we can do better in all of our endeavors.+ Melatonin is a natural hormone already found in our bodies that helps us stay on schedule with our sleep-wake cycles. But all that screen time and staying up late for the kids – plus the stresses of work for me and my husband – can throw off our bodies’ natural rhythms, which is where Natrol Melatonin comes in.

Natrol Melatonin Fast Dissolve tablets allow my husband and me to supplement the melatonin that we need to get our bodies back on track whenever we experience occasional sleeplessness*. They require no water, they’re fast-acting, and they help our bodies get the sleep they need. We also love Natrol Melatonin Gummies as well! They’re a great way to help us fall asleep with great taste and easy delivery.

Natrol Melatonin Fast Dissolve tablets are 100% drug-free, non-habit forming, and taste great. They’re also 100% vegetarian, so there’s no need to worry about what you’re putting in your body if you have dietary restrictions. Natrol Melatonin Gummies are non-GMO, gelatin-free, and vegetarian, too. They also have no corn syrup, artificial flavors, sweeteners, or preservatives, and they’re free of synthetic dyes!

For the kids, we use Natrol Kids Melatonin Fast Dissolve tablets and Natrol Kids Melatonin Gummies. Like their counterparts made for adults, these fast dissolve tablets and gummies are free of artificial ingredients, and they help the kids fall asleep fast and stay asleep longer.✝ They’re also safe and effective for children ages 4+ and pediatrician recommended*, which is so important to me.

A bedtime routine is great for all of us because research shows that 7 hours or more of sleep per night supports better health, performance in all activities, and the ability to learn, solve problems, and maintain a healthy mental outlook – all of which are important for both children and adults.

Now that the school year is coming up, we’re gearing up to get the better sleep we need to power us through the year. If you have kids, or if you just want better sleep+, give Natrol Melatonin a try! With many great varieties for both kids and adults, the whole family can get better sleep.
