The thought of having to get out of bed and handle the day makes you want to sink deeper underneath your covers. You may have the luxury of living alone but if you don’t, the sound of kids needing your attention feels just as loud as your alarm. They’re bouncing on the bed pulling your covers away from you and forcing you to face the day. Your eyes are dry and bloodshot, your mind is foggy, and you just don’t know how you’re going to handle being awake all day. Sleep is so essential and so many of us just don’t get as many hours as we need every night. If you’re one of those people, you know how hard it is to be present and to actually enjoy your life when you’re exhausted. Insomnia feels like absolute torture, as do other sleep disorders. When you don’t get quality sleep, when you can’t fall asleep and stay asleep regularly, your central nervous system goes haywire. If you’re constantly running on empty, you’re not only getting robbed of life, but you’re also robbing others from enjoying the fullness of you. Whether sleeplessness has been ongoing or it’s something new in your life, you may have a nightstand packed with nighttime sleep aids that you bought at your local pharmacy or you may have asked your doctor to prescribe something that knocks you out. Oftentimes, those sleep aids make you groggy in the morning and you’re not sure what’s worse: not sleeping at all or waking up feeling like you didn’t sleep even though you did. Luckily for you, CBD oil doesn’t induce grogginess but it’s strong enough to help you get a restful night’s sleep – with essentially no side effects. Don’t believe us? We put together a list of our top 10 favorite brands that have formulated CBD sleep products that contain either full spectrum CBD, broad spectrum CBD, or are made with a CBD isolate. This natural sleep aid can help you get the quality sleep you need to be present for all the good moments in your life. CBD FOR SLEEP – BRANDS WE TRUST 1. CBDfx – Best Overall 2. Extract Labs – Perfect for Bath Time 3. Natural Stacks – Exceptional CBD Lavender & Melatonin Blend 4. Sunday Scaries – Top-Rated for Relieving Stress and Improving Sleep 5. Green Roads – Pharmacist-Formulated Product Line 6. CBDistillery – Full Spectrum for Comprehensive Benefits 7. Medterra – Best THC-Free CBD Sleep Formulas 8. Charlotte’s Web – Highly-Regarded Brand 9. Five CBD – Complementary Bundle for Maximum Effect 10. Just Live – Traceable from Seed to Distribution HOW DID WE MAKE THE LIST? When you brave the CBD oil online marketplace, you have to be prepared. If you don’t start out with a map in hand, you can get lost easily. So, to be sure we only recommend the best of the best, we identified a set of criteria to keep our focus in line. * One of the first things we look at is the list of ingredients. We look for 100% natural ingredients and for additional components that help to relax your body, calm your mind, and bring on quality sleep. If we see any kind of filler or artificial anything – we skip right past them. * We also check out customer reviews. We love reading through people’s personal experiences with each product and we feel there’s a lot of insight to be found when previous customers share their experience. Especially when they comment on not only the product but on their experience with the customer service team. We only choose brands that have overpoweringly positive reviews. * Third-party lab testing is a must. We expect brands to hold themselves accountable and test each of their products to confirm purity, to confirm potency, and to confirm safety. And we expect them to list their lab results directly on the website or provide you with the link or code to easily access and review the lab results yourself. * Finally, we tested out the products in house. We wanted to get a good sense of how these products work so that we could let you know why they’re worth buying. BRAND INFORMATION, RATINGS & SELECTIONS 1.

For one, you get to wake up in a better mood because you have the opportunity to rest your mind and body throughout the night. When you regularly use CBD, you’ll notice enhanced cognition, which helps you make better decisions. CBD induces a state of calm, which is invaluable when you are dealing with anxiety or nervousness. CBD helps to mute the intensity of what you feel so that you can still move forward confidently. Another benefit of using CBD is that it helps you deal with your everyday stressors. Whether you have an important presentation or you’re dealing with high-pressure situations or you’re just going about your day facing traffic, you’re constantly being bombarded with stressful stimuli. With CBD on your side, you don’t get overwhelmed and can stay focused more easily. Another great reason to use CBD is because it has anti-inflammatory properties that help prevent injury and help to ease pain, especially after a long workout. Additionally, cannabinoids have antispasmodic properties, which keep your muscles from tensing up too tightly. No matter your lifestyle, CBD can help you by improving your mental clarity, boosting your energy levels, and most importantly by improving your sleep quality. WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN CHOOSING CBD PRODUCTS FOR SLEEP? To make sure that you’re only buying the best products available on the market, you’ll need to know a couple of things. First, you should know the source of the hemp. Look for companies that confirm they only use American grown hemp, and brownie points if they tell you exactly where. Next, look at their extraction method (CO2 extraction is preferable) and the type of CBD they use. Full spectrum will get you tons of benefits because you get more naturally occurring properties in the hemp plant. Broad spectrum is a bit more selective but still invokes the entourage effect, and CBD isolate products make sure you don’t have any trace of THC in your system. Then, take a look at the other ingredients. Are they including natural support, like botanical components, that also help to create calm and promote sleep? You can tell when a brand is intentional with their nighttime blends, and you can skip the brands that are clearly cutting corners and adding fillers to make their product cheaper to produce. Finally, be sure that you can access third-party lab test results and that the product has a certificate of analysis that confirms quality and the safety of products for human consumption. HOW MUCH CBD TO USE AS A SLEEP AID? The best place to start when deciding how much CBD to take as a sleep aid is to first look at the product packaging to check the recommended dose. When you start there, you can figure out if you need to adjust the dose based on the effects you feel. Not all CBD is created equal, and some formulas are actually meant to have a more energizing effect. Always be sure that if your ultimate goal is better sleep, that you purchase CBD products that are specially formulated for exactly that. These products will have a blend of other helpful ingredients to ensure your muscles relax, your mind gets quieter, and you can actually sleep through the night without interruptions. Some people are really sensitive to CBD and the recommended dose will take them right out. Other people may feel frustrated at first because the recommended dose doesn’t seem to have the impact they hoped for. This is where you have to employ a bit of patience. Determining the right dose for you may take a little bit of experimentation but once you discover just how much you need to pass out, you’ll be good to go. Another suggestion we have is to try out different products and formulas. The beauty of having at least 10 reputable brands at your disposal is that you can experiment not only with dosages but also with the different formulas they offer. How CBD affects you is also dependent on how you take it. For the most rapid effects, use a CBD oil tincture – this can be administered underneath your tongue and takes effect rather quickly. If you’re using gummies or capsules, expect effects to take a bit longer depending on what’s in your stomach and your digestive process. WHEN TO TAKE CBD OIL FOR SLEEP Take CBD whenever you need the extra support. Long, overnight flights are a great example of when CBD is most welcome. Just be sure to check laws and regulations wherever you’re traveling to confirm CBD use is allowed. Travel anxiety isn’t reserved just for when you’re on the plane. Most people have trouble sleeping before a big trip so using CBD oil for sleep can help you rest the night before you travel. Sometimes life gets really hectic, and you get overly stressed. When you can’t seem to shut off your mind at night and sleep feels impossible, taking CBD can quiet the chatter so you can focus on deep breathing, and finally drift off. Take your CBD in the evening just before bed when you won’t have to drive or operate heavy machinery. Expect to feel extra relaxed, as if you’ve just stepped out of the hot tub. Float on over to bed, forget the day, and get ready for some serious snoozing. SAFETY AND SIDE EFFECTS OF CBD TO PROMOTE SLEEP CBD will change the way you feel. You may experience some tiredness, which is great if you’re trying to wind down at the end of a long day. When using a high dose, you may experience some digestive discomfort including diarrhea or nausea. For the most part, side effects are mild, and most people don’t experience them. You should keep in mind that if you are taking any medications, you should first consult with your doctor to be sure that there won’t be any adverse interactions with CBD. Sometimes having something in your stomach can help to reduce side effects but if you do experience unusual feelings, discontinue use and ask your doctor for guidance. CAN CBD OIL FOR SLEEP BE USED LONG-TERM? CBD oils appear to be generally harmless, while research into its effects, especially over time, is lacking. Additional behavioral changes can be made to help promote sleep, like limiting caffeine and sugar in the afternoon. It’ll also be helpful to keep a steady schedule, even on the weekends. And if you’re used to having your phone in hand when you’re in bed at night, you should consider breaking that habit right away. Keep your environment dark, without noisy distractions, and at a cool temperature. Use a sleep mask or noise canceling ear plugs if you’re not able to control lighting or sound. Keep up to date with CBD studies to ensure you have all the information needed as well. CONCLUSION Not getting enough sleep impacts every area of your life. It impairs your immune system, it creates cognitive confusion, and it can even make you gain weight. Since your immune system is weakened when you don’t sleep well, you become at higher risk for diabetes and even for some types of cancer. Without proper sleep, you’re more likely to get sick, you’re more likely to have a stroke or develop a coronary heart disease, and your memory starts failing. Not only that but lack of sleep can also reduce your sex drive and make you a lot more accident prone. Sleep is more than just beauty rest even though lack of sleep does cause wrinkles and fine lines. If you’re not sleeping enough and you’re tired of the side effects that come with over the counter and prescription drugs, try CBD oils that are formulated to promote sleep. We’re certain you’ll love them – we sure did. Previous articleThe Freeman House, One of L.A.’s Most Iconic Homes, Is for Sale Next articleMcDonald’s Is Dedicating a Meal to L.A.
