How can I put down my phone and go to sleep?

Put your phone in another room, or give it to your parents or siblings/friend. Don't have it charging in the same room as you. If you need a way to wake you up without your phone i recommend investing in a digital alarm clock!

It can definitely be difficult to put your phone down and go to sleep, however the best method I have found for myself is to leave your phone charger somewhere in a room that is different than the one you sleep in. This reduces the availability you have to reach for your phone, when you should be going to sleep.

Try looking to something more relaxing you might also enjoy doing in the evenings, like reading, drawing, writing...

Do not keep any electronics in your room, make sure that anytime you use them you are out of your room, you will sleep much better!

Your phone is not allowed to enter your room you can keep it in living room 1 hour before you go to bed

In this new age of technology it is so difficult to stay away from our phones and it consumes most is not all of our time and attention. Some things I do to get off my phone and go to sleep are the following, if i am talking on the phone i let who ever i am speaking to know that by 10 pm i need to get off the phone and keep the same routine if i am in social media by 10 pm i get off of the phone set my alarms for the next day and put my phone to charge on the opposite side of the room where id half to get up in the mornings just to turn off the alarm this way i dont have easy access to it and can just sleep easier

Hi! So what you can try is maybe putting your phone on the other side of your bedroom, on silent. If you do this, it'll make you less likely to go on it if it's across the room, rather than next to you. Also, turning the lights off and lowering your bedroom temperature can help you get tired quicker. When our body temperature lowers, it lets our bodies know it's time to start producing melatonin, a natural sleeping hormone so we can sleep. Another thing you can do is make yourself put your phone down at a certain time before bedtime (even if you don't want to). This will help train your brain and let your brain know that it's time for bed. And the urge to look at your phone will decrease. Hope this helps and answers your question!

This is really such a big issue for most of us nowadays, there's so much to do on our phone, that we dont mind compromising our sleep for it too. It's not entirely wrong to use your phone, but I guess, there should be a control over it or atleast not compromising your sleep and health over it . Maybe try tracking your time spent on the phone and various applications used ? Some applications take more of our time and interest than others, so maybe look out for those and set a time limit on its use, try assessing what is that you really like doing on the app , or is it helpful or productive in anyway or just you over spending your time ? .. once you assess these apps, just limiting your time, making up your mind that you will follow the time set and that sleep will come first, maybe that could help :)

One of the ways in which I was able to put my phone down was to buy an aesthetic alarm clock. It made me feel calm and I used to feel excited at the prospect of hearing the alarm in the morning. Another way could be to think about how good it will feel to get up nice and fresh in the morning instead of spending time on the phone till late hours and feeling cranky in the morning. I focused on the though that half my problems will go away if I start putting my phone down early, and it really helped to have a physical solution in front of me.

Phones can be very addicting so, it is normal to have difficulties putting down your phone to get to bed. One thing you could practise is having a phone-free bed zone where you don't bring your phone on or near your bed. It may also be helpful to have a winding down routine where just before bed, you minimize screen time, brush your teeth, get comfortable, and maybe read a few pages of a book before going to sleep. The key is to avoid anything that is cognitively demanding that would keep you awake. When you're on your bed, you can also practise deep breathing exercises to remain calm.
