STRATEGIES FOR MAXIMIZING SLEEP

Create routines to tell the brain you want to go to sleep earlier.

Do these around the same time every night to get 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 (and for many people, sugar too) in the evening.
Do you have any other strategies that work for you?
