  • Wake Up At The Same Time Every Day
    01

    Wake Up At The Same Time Every Day

    Even on weekends. A consistent wake time keeps your brain's internal clock on track, helping you fall asleep more easily and wake up more refreshed.

  • Get Sunlight Within 30 Minutes Of Waking
    02

    Get Sunlight Within 30 Minutes Of Waking

    Morning light exposure supports healthy melatonin production and resets your circadian rhythm. Aim for 10–15 minutes of sunlight every day.

    No sun? Try AYO Glasses or BrainMD's BRIGHT MINDS Therapy Lamp for light therapy on the go.

  • No Caffeine After 2 PM

    No Caffeine After 2 PM

    Caffeine can linger in your system for hours. To avoid sleep disruption, switch to herbal teas or decaf in the afternoon.

  • Wind Down 60–90 Minutes Before Bed

    Wind Down 60–90 Minutes Before Bed

    Prep your brain for sleep with a predictable nighttime routine:

    • Dim the lights
    • Wear blue-light blocking glasses
    • Read, journal, or stretch
    • Turn off screens and bright devices
    • Practice Dr. Creado's 10-minute Sleep Meditation

    Only get into bed when you're truly sleepy—not just tired.
