ADVICE

Lower Screens To Improve Sleep

  • Put screens below eye level at night to reduce blue-light stimulation and make them feel like a campfire.
  • Lowering the TV or device reduces retinal blue-light exposure and supports falling asleep faster.
ADVICE

Separate Rooms Can Save Sleep

  • Consider sleeping in separate rooms if partners have mismatched sleep patterns to preserve rest and intimacy.
  • Keep a brief pre-sleep connection ritual so separation doesn't reduce closeness.
ADVICE

Use Low-Light Reading Or Meditation At Night

  • If you wake in the night, use Kindle (no light), Audible, or meditate to bridge 30 minutes back to sleep.
  • Give your body time to settle instead of immediately doomscrolling or getting up fully.
