Best Sleep Accounts to Follow on Instagram
With over 1 billion users on Instagram around the world, there’s no shortage of accounts out there to follow. While social media is an amazing platform to connect with people and stay engaged with friends, it also has a huge impact on a person's mental health. Since its release in October 2010 there has been a lot more awareness and focus on the impact that social media has on our mental health and general wellbeing. One of the biggest ways to own your mental health on social media is to be super aware of who you choose to follow online. The brands, people, hashtags and companies you follow and the images and messages you look at online have major implications on how you feel about your life and yourself.
Sleep-focused Instagram accounts are great because they provide a visual reminder to prioritize sleep, usually posted alongside general health tips, reminders to take breaks of your phones and other health-focused messages. Following these accounts is a great way to ensure that you have some positive messaging that will leave you feeling more energized and optimistic about yourself. Plus you may learn something new that can help you sleep better! Here are some of the best sleep accounts you should check out.
