"Bedtime Checklist for a More Positive Outlook"

Bedtime

This bedtime checklist is designed to help you achieve a more positive outlook by promoting relaxation and restful sleep. Start by turning off all electronic devices at least 30 minutes before bedtime to reduce stimulation. Take a warm bath or shower to relax your muscles and put on comfortable sleepwear. Brush your teeth and floss, and apply moisturizer or lotion to your skin. Set the room temperature to a comfortable level and dim the lights or use a nightlight to create a calming atmosphere. Practice deep breathing or meditation to clear your mind, and read a book or listen to calming music to help you fall asleep. Set your alarm for the next day and place it out of reach to avoid hitting snooze. Before closing your eyes, express gratitude for the day and set positive intentions for the next day. Visualize a peaceful and restful night's sleep to end your day on a positive note.
