You may have laughed as soon as you read the title to open the article means that you are curious to know the reason why we should put lemon slices on our side before going to sleep. And you did well and you are curious because lemon has so many benefits including this trick that I will teach you today.

So cut one sliced lemon and place them on a saucer on your bedside table.

What does lemon do?

1. Fights anxiety and stress
Bedtime should be the most relaxing time of the day. There should be calmness and the stress of the day should be removed so that you can have an adequate and refreshing sleep. Such a thing, however, is not easy for many. Thoughts keep swirling in the mind and the body finds it difficult to relax. Research has found that the aroma of lemon is able to "soften" the brain and the functioning of the nervous system and provide calmness.

2. Enhances concentration
The process of enhancing concentration levels at bedtime may sound somewhat contradictory, since the purpose is relaxation and not extra overstimulation. However, being able to focus on the now and let yourself relax, letting go of all negative thoughts, is necessary. The aroma of lemon helps a lot in this process, especially if before going to sleep you practice specific relaxation exercises, such as meditation.

3. Improves breathing
If you're having trouble breathing, whether due to a cold or an allergy, and you can't sleep, cut a lemon and put it next to you. Its antibacterial properties and its soothing aroma will help you get rid of the stuffiness especially if it is in an early stage.

4. It has insect repellent properties
The visit of annoying insects, especially mosquitoes while you are sleeping, is something that can ruin your whole mood and atmosphere and will definitely make it difficult for you to sleep. The smell of lemon works as an effective and natural insect repellent and is a solution that can untie your hands.

5. Gives more energy and positivity in the morning
If you are one of those types who hate waking up in the morning, then you will find this use of lemon very helpful. Having contributed to a more restful and clean sleep, its aroma will prepare your body to wake up with more appetite and well-being, since it has the property of enhancing serotonin levels in the brain and, thus, combating negative thoughts.
