Many of us watch TV or check emails before bed, but this habit can prevent you from having restful sleep.
The stimulation from technology causes our brain activity to increase before bedtime when it actually should be starting to slow down.
The artificial light from cell phones, computers, and TV screens also suppresses production of melatonin, the neurotransmitter that is essential in regulating our sleep and wake cycles.
Try shutting off all electronics an hour before sleep so your body can get into proper sleep mode and help you feel more restful in the morning.
