TRAIN THE BRAIN

People can create routines to signal to the brain that they want to go to sleep earlier.

Doing these routines around the same time every night gets the body into a rhythm.

  • Wind down: brush teeth, wash face, get into PJs.
  • Put away all devices at least an hour before you want to fall asleep.
  • Dim lights or use a smaller reading light.
  • Avoid caffeine or sugar in the evening.
  • Do you have any other strategies that work for you?
