\nThere just aren\u2019t enough hours in the day! When you do try to switch off your brain thinks of all those things you haven\u2019t done. I\u2019m sure you wouldn\u2019t leave your phone unplugged overnight, and just like a device you need to be recharged too! Reducing caffeine is a simple step to help you wind down, swap that last cuppa for a herbal tea, Horlicks or decaffeinated drink. If you do start planning your next day as soon as your head hits the pillow then why not keep a notebook beside your bed \u2013 put it all down and get it out of your head! We all know that switching devices off an hour before bed helps too, why not pick up a good book or put some relaxing music on, or to apps such as Calm, meditation or just anything that unwinds your mind.<\/p>\n
