I recommend leaving your phone in another room in your house/apartment. This way, you will not hear the notifications of your phone and will forget about it. Also, for the ones who are mostly lazy, will not want to wake up and go get their phone. In conclusion, this would enhance your sleeping.

Habits become routine. It is easy to stay attached to the phone and is quite normal in this age. To break a habit, try to schedule a bedtime for electronics, for example, every night at 10PM all electronics get shut down and the night routine starts. At first, this might be difficult, but after a week or so you will have created a new nightly habit.

Personally, I have an app downloaded that locks my phone after 12, except for emergency functions. You could try something similar if you want!

With the distraction of technology, it can be hard to put it down and go to sleep. However, one technique that might work is to create a schedule where you turn off your phone at a particular time each night, studies show that an hour before you intend on sleeping I'd the best. When you turn your phone off st that time, you can then focus on relaxing and creating an bed time routine that works best for you.

Lay down on your bed. Don't worry if you still have your phone in your hand. Start taking very deep breaths but very slowly. Do not move your body. Completely surrender your body weight to the bed. Its important you lay down on your back and not in other positions. After a while you will start feeling very relaxed even if you are using your phone. This state of relaxation will help you put down your phone and continue being more relaxed. But remember deep, long and slow breathing is the most important part. This conscious relaxation process helps you calm down your mind and body and help you go to sleep.

Put your phone on airoplane mode so then no notifications come through to make you look at your phone and if you have an iPhone, use the bedtime thing on your clock app to help you know when to go to sleep and when to get up.
