Summer Sleep Routines: How to Stay on Track During Seasonal Shifts
Summer brings later sunsets, looser schedules, and lots of excitement—but it can also throw off your sleep routine if you’re not careful. Whether you’re a parent trying to keep kids on a schedule or an adult finding it hard to wind down, here are ways to support restful sleep all season long.
Why Sleep Suffers in the Summer
More daylight = delayed melatonin release
Irregular bedtimes (for kids and adults!)
Increased activity, travel, and social plans
Dehydration or overheating at night
Tips for Supporting Summer Sleep:
Stay Consistent – Try to keep wake and sleep times within the same range each day, even on weekends.
Create a Wind-Down Routine – Light stretching, reading, or using calming products like Rowe Casa’s Deep Sleep Salve and Pillow Spritz signal the brain that it’s time to rest.
Keep Cool – Use fans, breathable sheets, and consider magnesium-rich lotion to relax muscles and regulate temperature.
Limit Evening Screen Time – Opt for natural light during the day and dim lighting as bedtime approaches to support natural melatonin production.
How Chiropractic Supports Sleep During Busy Seasons
Chiropractic care helps your nervous system adapt to stress and maintain balance, even during a season full of changes. Adjustments can ease tension, improve focus, and help your body transition more smoothly into restful states—regardless of what the calendar looks like.
This summer, don’t let busy days lead to sleepless nights. Stay consistent with your care, support your system naturally, and make sleep a non-negotiable part of your wellness routine.
