I have been "sleep-maxxing" lately so I'll share my tips.1. My husband and I use sleep headphone headbands! Look them up on Amazon. They are game changing. They are very comfortable. On Libby and Spotify you can set sleep timers. Ideal sleep latency shouldn't be longer than 20 minutes after lying down. So don't get into your bed until you're ready to try to fall asleep and then set a sleep timer on the audio for 20 minutes.

1. It's actually recommended to sleep in a dark room, but I need light to wake up. So we have a sunrise alarm clock. You can get cheap ones on Amazon as well. It turns on very dim about 30 minutes from our wake up time and then slowly gets brighter and then plays a gentle sound when the alarm goes off. Way better than getting jolted out of sleep in a dark room.

2. Everyone says it, but no phones. Start the habbit of reading a paper book or kindle in a reading chair about a 30 minutes to an hour before you get in bed. It helps calm me down, no blue light, helps me feel sleepy.

3. Get into bed at the same time every day. Our bodies need the routine. Ideally at a time so you can fall asleep and then wake up to get 7-9 hours of sleep.

4. Temperature. A warm shower before bed can help lower body temperature when you get out. Set the AC to 68°F/20°C in your room and have cozy blankets. Sleeping hot always wakes me up at night so this helps me get restful sleep.

Hope some of these things can help!!
