It’s become a well-known reality that electronics have become a part of our daily lives. From television to cell phones to computers to tablets, we spend much of our day looking at a screen. At night, before we go to bed, we often turn to these electronics to help us unwind before we go to sleep, whether it’s watching a television show or scrolling through our social media accounts on our phones. However, screen time before bed actually has the opposite effect, and instead of helping you go to sleep, actually makes your body want to stay awake longer.
According to the National Sleep Foundation, the use of electronics before bed inhibits the release of hormone that helps you sleep called melatonin. The blue light that comes from looking at these electronics, stimulates your brain instead of relaxing it, making it more difficult to both fall asleep as well as to stay asleep throughout the night.
The solution to this issue is to set an electronics curfew for you and your household, where you stop using all electronic devices anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours before bedtime. If you need something to help you unwind before you go to sleep, try reading a book, which has been shown time and again to help you fall asleep faster and sleep better throughout the night.
