sleep masks for your summer nights
HOTELS FOR DREAMERS
A calm getaway in the cretan mountains
As I am writing this newsletter it is pouring down outside again.It is early morning and I am tucked under my duvet with Elvis, my 13-year-old Dachshund, by my side, the door is open to the garden and I can hear the slow raindrops on the roof. The birds are still chirping and life is very calm right now. I feel rested after weeks spent surrounded by fields and rolling hills and with no traffic outside to disturb my sleep at night.Nature calms our nervous system and our need for this grows in our tech-filled lives.
It has been a very wet summer in Denmark again.This morning I am dreaming of returning to this very special place I visited last October with my family and I feel like sharing this hidden gem of a place with you if you too are dreaming of a calm and sunny getaway.
At Kapsaliana Village Hotel nestled in the Cretan mountains, we spent our days in the warm Mediterranean sun, exploring the serene mountain trails and simply just unwinding with good books in the peaceful garden or by the pool.

the importance of sleep?
- Sleep is the most efficient way to prevent premature aging and heart disease, lower stress levels and prevent obesity.
- During our sleep, we regenerate our muscles, and our skin is rejuvenated. During deep sleep, our bodily fluids are circulated, which cleanses our internal organs and transports moisture to our skin.
- It is while we sleep that the brain gets to process all impressions of the day. The calming and soothing effects of healthy sleeping habits ensure that we are happier and more energized, when we are awake.
