The bedtime habit that’s messing with your health (and wallet)💤💸

💤 The no-spend habit that feels like a reset

How a screen-free evening can calm your mind—and your bank account

Hey friend,

I started using this practice before bed 6 months ago and it’s been a complete game changer for my physical and mental health.

We don’t talk about this enough:
Screens at night are quietly wrecking your health.

They keep your brain overstimulated.
Your digestion off.
Your nervous system wired.
And your cart full of things you don’t really need.

Here’s the mistake most of us make:
📱 Mindlessly scrolling before bed.

Here’s what to do instead:
Unplug. Just for one evening. Or maybe the next 60…
No doomscrolling.
No late-night Amazon buys.
No blue light telling your body it’s still daytime.

This BEDTIME FLOW can help :)

🌙 Why it matters

When you unplug, your body starts to settle.
Your thoughts slow down.
Your eyes relax.
Your digestion improves.
Your sleep gets deeper.
And your mind starts to feel… lighter.

Over time, this simple habit can shift:
✨ Sleep patterns
🧠 Mental health
👀 Eye strain
🫁 Nervous system balance
🌀 Digestion (yes, screens affect your gut too!)

💸 Cost: $0

🧠 Wellness win: rest, presence, peace

📵 Try it tonight:

• Put your phone in another room after dinner - I set mine on airplane mode from 9 pm onwards

• Dim the lights - boosts melatonin, calms the brain, and helps your body know it’s time to sleep.

• Do a gentle stretch, take a bath, or sip herbal tea

• Be bored on purpose (it’s good for your brain)

• OR try my BEDTIME FLOW - for certified sleep customizable to how much time you have before you want/need to doze off!

📚 Good reads for screen-free nights

• The 5 AM Club by Robin Sharma – for morning mindset magic

• Let Them by Mel Robbins – a powerful take on boundaries and letting go

• Wintering by Katherine May – quiet, soulful, and grounding

• The Midnight Library by Matt Haig – fiction that feels like therapy

🔬 What the science says:

Blue light delays melatonin and messes with your circadian rhythm.
It’s not just about sleep—it impacts your whole system.

Here’s a peer-reviewed study worth bookmarking:
👉 Evening use of electronic devices negatively affects sleep, circadian timing and next-morning alertness

This small shift?
It’s the reset your body—and your bank account—has been waiting for.
