  • No screens before bed. 
  • Include relaxation in your bedtime routine, such as taking a bath or shower, picking up a book to read, or relaxing breathing exercises.
  • Avoid caffeine and alcohol before bedtime.
  • Avoid large meals within 3 hours of bedtime,
  • Exercise during the day – vigorous exercise is best, but even light exercise is better than no activity. Exercise at any time of day, but not at the expense of your sleep. 
  • Expose yourself to sunlight first thing in the morning to regulate circadian rhythms. 
  • Be consistent with your routine.
  • Lastly, include the application of our Magnesium Rescue into your bedtime routine to help you drift off to dreamland and stay there.
