Lesson Overview

12.8 – Creating a Bedtime Wind-Down Routine: A bedtime wind-down routine acts like a bridge between the noise of your day and the calm of your night. It signals your mind that it’s safe to slow down. You might start by dimming lights, shutting screens, or tidying your space so visual clutter doesn’t distract you. Activities like journaling, stretching, or drinking caffeine-free tea can reinforce calmness. Repeating the same soothing steps every night trains your body to release tension automatically. The goal isn’t perfection but rhythm—quiet predictability that gently pulls you toward rest. Avoiding heavy meals or emotional conversations before bed helps too. Over time, these small rituals create emotional safety around sleep, making it something you look forward to rather than fight against. A strong wind-down routine builds trust between your mind and body, ensuring that when your head finally hits the pillow, your system already knows it’s time to restore.
