3. **Limit Exposure to Screens Before Bed**
The blue light emitted from screens (phones, tablets, computers, and TVs) can interfere with your body’s production of **melatonin**, the hormone responsible for regulating sleep. This can make it harder to fall asleep and stay asleep.
How to reduce screen exposure:
– Avoid screens for at least **30-60 minutes before bed**.
– If you must use your phone or computer, use a blue light filter or night mode.
– Instead of scrolling through social media or watching TV, consider reading, journaling, or listening to a calming podcast.
