What you do in the hours before bed determines the quality of your rest.
A consistent evening routine signals your nervous system to shift from high-alert mode into deep relaxation. By establishing intentional habits, you bridge the gap between a hectic day and a night of restorative sleep.
Incorporate these proven habits into your nightly routine to prime your body for sleep:
- Digital Sunset: Turn off all screens 60 minutes before bed to stop blue light from blocking melatonin production.
- Dim the Lights: Lower your home’s lighting after dinner to mimic the natural sunset and trigger sleepiness.
- Consistent Timing: Go to bed at the exact same time every night to lock in your internal circadian rhythm.
- Mind Decompression: Spend 15 minutes reading a physical book, journaling, or doing light stretching to lower cortisol.
- Caffeine Cut-off: Avoid coffee, energy drinks, and hidden stimulants for at least six hours before your bedtime.
