11. Avoid electronics in the evening
Eliminate the use of electronics, including your phone, computer, and TV before bed. These devices emit blue light that can reduce your body’s production of melatonin. Start by eliminating all electronics 15 minutes before bed, then 30 minutes, then one hour before bed.
12. Don’t lie awake
If you find yourself anxious and unable to find the right mindset to sleep, get out of bed. If you’re unable to fall asleep within 10-20 minutes, move to another room and do something that relaxes you, like reading or meditation.
