Hey luna How do you get of your phone when you want to go to bed
Hi, those “five more minutes” on your phone can stretch much longer than planned 💫
You don’t need to stop all at once, so try one small change first and see what helps.
👉 Give yourself a set amount of phone time, then put it away and start your bedtime routine.
👉 Set app limits or schedule sleep mode so certain apps are blocked when it’s time for bed.
👉 Leave your phone across the room or in another room, so it’s harder to reach without thinking.
👉 Wind down with something off-screen, like reading, drawing, doodling or doing your skincare 🦋
If your phone is also your alarm, you could keep it across the room or use a separate alarm clock.
You could also turn on night or dark mode, which reduces the blue light from the screen and can make falling asleep after using your phone easier.
Start with whichever idea feels most doable tonight, rather than trying everything at once 💛
Hope this helps!
