Keep yourself as stress-free as possible at night.

Keep yourself as stress-free as possible at night.

It is inevitable to have stressful nights from time to time. Doing what you can to make your nights calm, though, will play large dividends towards your sleep quality.

  • Worry.

If you can lay down without having to worry about something going on or a task you did not accomplish, then you will fall asleep more quickly and sleep deeper.

  • Less stress in your before bedtime activities.

This, ultimately, means spending your night doing less stress-inducing activities. If you have to do work at night, try to make it more mindless. So by the time you are going to bed, it will be easier to shut off your brain.

Sean Green

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
