Sleep Smarter_ 21 Proven Tips to Sleep Your Way To a Better Body, Better Health and Bigger Success

  avoid screens before bedtime This is likely the number one thing you can do to improve your sleep quality immediately. The artificial blue light emitted by electronic screens triggers your body to produce more daytime hormones (like cortisol) and disorient your body’s natural preparation for sleep.  Computers, iPads, televisions, smartphones, etc., are kicking out a sleep-sucking blue spectrum of light that can give you major sleep problems.  Have you ever driven down your neighborhood street at night and seen that majestic blue light beaming out of people’s windows?
