Coping strategies that may help
Establish a Sleep Routine
Try to go to bed and wake up at the same time every day to regulate your body's internal clock.
Create a Relaxing Bedtime Environment
Make your bedroom a calm space by keeping it cool, dark, and quiet, which may help signal to your body that it’s time to sleep.
Limit Screen Time Before Bed
Reduce exposure to screens at least an hour before bedtime, as the blue light can interfere with your ability to fall asleep.
Practice Mindfulness or Relaxation Techniques
Engaging in mindfulness, deep breathing, or gentle yoga may help calm your mind and prepare you for sleep.
