If you spend your last waking hours in front of the <a href=\"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/what-is-blue-light\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">blue light<\/a> of your computer screen, it\u2019ll mess with your circadian rhythm. On the other hand, if you have a relaxing bedtime ritual, you&#8217;ll be able to doze off and wake up refreshed.<\/p>\n<p>But how do you know what nighttime ritual is best for you? Below, psychic and astrologer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.psychicdeborahgraham.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Deborah Graham<\/a>\u00a0shares the one thing you should do before bed, according to your zodiac sign.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Aries (March 21 \u2013 April 19): Journal<\/strong><br \/>\n&#8220;[Aries have] a tendency to take in so much energy,\u201d says Graham, \u201cso you have to declutter all the things [that happened].\u201d You can do this by writing down your feelings and thoughts about the day in a journal before you go to sleep.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Taurus (April 20 \u2013 May 20): Go on a walk (barefoot)<\/strong><br \/>\nGraham recommends that you take your shoes off and go for a walk so that your feet are touching the ground. \u201cIt\u2019s a way to ground yourself and root yourself because Tauruses have a tendency to be strong and overpowering. So if they can release all their emotional anxiety, it\u2019ll help them feel lighter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gemini (May 21 \u2013 June 20): Use amethyst<\/strong><br \/>\nGeminis have a hard time slowing down their thoughts, and amethyst helps to clear the mind. Graham recommends a meditation where you hold amethyst up to your third chakra and around your belly button, then deeply inhale and exhale.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cancer (June 21 \u2013 July 22): Take a bath<\/strong><br \/>\nCancers like water so a relaxing bath is a good way for them to wind down after a long day. Graham suggests using lavender sea salt to make the bath extra relaxing, leading to a good night\u2019s rest so you wake up with a clear mind.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Leo (July 23 \u2013 August 22): Listen to music<\/strong><br \/>\nLeos are creatures of habit, so a relaxing bedtime song every night is just what you need. They also tend to carry stress in their necks and shoulders, says Graham, and music helps minimize this tension because it works on the subconscious mind.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Virgo (August 23 \u2013 September 22): Stretch<\/strong><br \/>\nVirgos need to feel purified and connected to the earth, and getting on the ground to stretch is a great way to do that, says Graham. While you\u2019re stretching, breathe deeply and picture yourself surrounded by white light.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Libra (September 23 \u2013 October 22): Drink hot water<\/strong><br \/>\n&#8220;[Libras] need to balance out their yin and yang because their energy has a way of going off in left field,\u201d says Graham. \u201cThey have a tendency to take things to the extreme.\u201d Plain hot water helps balance out your energy. To help clear out your emotions, picture a memory of when you felt safe and balanced.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Scorpio (October 23 \u2013 November 21): Second chakra meditation<\/strong><br \/>\nScorpios have high sexual energy and a tendency toward anger, says Graham. They can release their pent-up anger and emotion by sitting cross-legged for five to 10 minutes and squeezing and releasing their pelvis, the home of the second chakra.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sagittarius (November 22 \u2013 December 21): Hug yourself<\/strong><br \/>\nSagittariuses can get defensive and want to protect themselves and others. \u201cYou need to fulfill that sense of protection and that sense of alignment,\u201d says Graham. To feel protected before bed, give yourself a hug, rock back and forth, and picture the color red.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Capricorn (December 22 \u2013 January 19): Use cedarwood oil<\/strong><br \/>\nCapricorns are drawn to the woods, so putting cedarwood oil on your wrist and smelling it should help provide a sense of calmness, says Graham. \u201cThat will really help you feel like you&#8217;re in your own space, and [it also] helps you flush out any negative energy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Aquarius (January 20 \u2013 February 18): Drink chamomile tea<\/strong><br \/>\nAquariuses are very inquisitive. &#8220;They\u2019re deep thinkers, and they have a tendency to be a little more in their head than in their heart,\u201d says Graham. They have a way of shutting down and not showing a lot of emotion, so they can wake up feeling like they don\u2019t want to be around people. Chamomile tea helps you relax before bed so that you can get enough rest.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pisces (February 19 \u2013 March 20): Tapping<\/strong><br \/>\n\u201cPisces have a tendency to care and worry about everyone else and put their own self aside, so by the end of the day, they&#8217;re exhausted,\u201d says Graham. One way to recharge your battery is through a \u201ctapping\u201d technique \u2013 tap your two index fingers on your third eye (in between your eyes) for 15 to 20 seconds each night to bring the energy back into your head.<\/p>\n<p>xx, The FabFitFun Team<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":"What you do before bed can really affect how well you sleep.
