The body needs some shut-eye and a break. So it&#39;s still better not to look at the phone. If it gets really long to sleep, I just read a book. It helps to read something that makes the mind calm and happy.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Todd J.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Great question. Long time habit of mine. I am trying to break this by turning the phone on silent, but even then I\u2019m still looking at 2am. There really is no reason I need to look, and my approach needs to be from that frame of mind &#8211; mainly, asking why when I find myself reaching for the phone.<\/p>\n<p>Next steps is to simply shut it off, OR, place it in another room. I\u2019ve not done that since I use the phone as my alarm, which is just an excuse right now \ud83d\ude0a<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Samuel E.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">This is a really difficult one. I have chronic pain, so I know the struggle of trying to stay away from my phone at night.<br \/>\nYou can begin by reminding yourself that there is 0 chance you will fall asleep, so long as you are on your phone. Additionally, the more pressure you place on yourself to sleep, the less likely it will come. I tell myself \u2018if sleep comes or not, it doesn\u2019t matter. I am still going to let my body rest. Also, changing environment (maybe changing from the bed to the floor, or the couch) can actually be helpful. Finally, I listen to yoga nidra guided meditations. These allow the brain to rest and become energised even if you don\u2019t actually fall asleep. There\u2019s plenty of free ones for insomnia, some are better than others.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anass Z. I don\u2019t haha.
