5 things teenagers can do to improve their sleep

Five practical, evidence-based habits teenagers can start using tonight.

1

Maintain a consistent schedule

Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, even on weekends, to help regulate your body clock.

2

Disconnect from screens

Turn off phones, tablets, and computers at least one hour before bed because blue light tricks the brain into staying awake.

3

Avoid evening stimulants

Skip coffee, energy drinks, and sugary snacks in the afternoon and evening to prevent your nervous system from staying active.

4

Get regular daily exercise

Be physically active for at least 20 to 60 minutes during the day, but avoid intense workouts right before bedtime.

5

Create a relaxing wind-down routine

Spend the last hour before sleep doing calming activities like reading, listening to soft music, or stretching in a cool, dark room.
