11. Stop using your phone before bed
You’ve heard it before: Putting your electronics away before bed will help you sleep better. The blue light from screens can impact your circadian rhythm and melatonin production, and doom-scrolling on social media certainly isn’t going to help you doze off to peaceful dreams.
Still, leaving your electronics outside the bedroom is an ambitious goal for most. If you’re not quite there yet, aim for just staying off your devices for an hour before bed and taking advantage of your phone’s night settings, which reduce the emitted blue light.
12. Spend one night a week doing something that makes you happy
Self-care looks different for everybody—it could be giving yourself a facial, treating yourself to takeout, or tidying your bedroom. At its core, it means taking time for yourself and doing something that makes you feel good.
Making a resolution to spend one night a week indulging in a self-care activity is a great way to keep yourself relaxed and happy, be it with a sudsy bubble bath using our favorite bath bombs from LifeAround2Angels, or our best-tested foot massager, the Renpho heated foot massager.
