Why Magnesium & Arnica Belong in Your Bedtime Routine

We've all been there: staring at the ceiling, mentally sorting through every conversation we've had since 2012, while your legs feel restless and your shoulders are up around your ears. Modern life is noisy, and muscle tension is real.

Why magnesium and arnica

That's where magnesium and arnica come in. Magnesium is a mineral that plays a huge role in muscle relaxation and regulating the nervous system. When applied topically, it sinks straight in where you need it most. Combined with arnica—a mountain herb used for centuries to soothe bruising, aches, and swelling—it creates a powerful recovery balm.

How to use it

To use it, just massage a small amount into any of these before bed:

• Your temples
• The back of your neck
• Sore muscles

The act of massaging it in helps relax the muscles, while the lavender and chamomile scents cue your brain that it's time to rest. Sweet dreams, y'all!
