Once there, it gives your body the message that it’s either time to go to bed or time to wake up.When it’s dark outside, this message triggers the production of melatonin, the sleep hormone. On the other hand, when there is light, your SCN tells your body it’s time for you to get up.Light also signals your SCN to initiate other processes associated with being awake, such as raising your body temperature and producing hormones like cortisol.In simpler terms: Melatonin is produced when it’s dark. Your body stops producing it when there is light.Introducing Dr Mercola’s sleep mask with Lavender:Darkness and deep sleep can be yoursWhile you can take many steps to make sure your bedroom is as dark as possible, if there is even the tiniest bit of light in the room it can disrupt your sleep.As soon as there is light €“ even just turning on that bathroom light in the middle of the night €“ you may be keeping yourself from the best sleep.So, how do assure yourself that light will not disrupt your sleep?Dr Mercola have found that the Sleep Mask with Lavender is one of the quickest and easiest answers.With this pioneering sleep mask, you can be in complete control of your environment for optimal sleep.Ideal for travellers, night-shift workers and anybody who desires a restful, rejuvenating sleep, Dr Mercola Sleep Mask with Lavender is just what you’re looking for when you’re looking for the best night’s sleep.With its pleasing lavender and chamomile scent, sleep is more soothing than ever.Fully breathable 100% cotton interlock padding which cushions the eyes without pressure with silky soft linen satin exteriorOrganza sachet contains a relaxing blend of lavender flowers and chamomile.
