move it all the way across the room so that you have to get up to get it. once you are laying down and feeling tired, you wont want to get up. turn the sound off and turn vibration off so you cannot hear it ringing or vibrating.

Put your phone out of your view, like charging it in a different room, that way you will be less easily triggered to pick up your phone.

You can usually turn it off, so it won't be distracting you. It's also better if you put it in another room.

1. Use Night Shift (iOS) or F.lux (Android) or any lights that reduce the blue light on your screen 2. Turn Airplane Mode on for the night 3. Have an evening routine. Make it a habit to stop using your phone an hour before bed. Instead, you can shower, read, meditate, journal, plan out the next day, or so on.

Putting your phone down on a night is difficult for many people because it can be hard to switch off from the world. I find it useful to do some kind of relaxation/ guided imagery on my phone before I go to sleep where you can close your eyes and just listen. This can help you to relax and turn off a little bit

Well we all have to practice self control for some things in life. For one, you may have to turn off your phone completely and put it in a drawer somewhere away from you but not to far out of the room you sleep in. If you aren't required to go to sleep or if you're not tired you can always try to read or maybe go outside and look at the stargaze or lay on a hammock outside. If you're in a time sensitive situation then maybe take a good warm bath with essential oils like Lavender, Lemon or Yuzu, Bergamot, Ylang Ylang, Clary sage, Jasmine for your melatonin transmitters that promote you to get sleepy, relaxed and comfortable. You know your situation though, so hopefully this helps some.

Set an alarm on your phone for lets say, 15 minutes and when the timer goes off put your phone to charge in a different room then grab it in the morning.

Before you go to bed, turn your phone off or on airplane mode, and then place it on the opposite side of your room, across from your bed. Don't have it within arms reach, and once you're under the covers it'll be easier to drift off to sleep.

Try to leave your phone outside of your room or on the opposite side of your room. Say goodbye to everyone you're talking to and turn it off. Try doing so about an hour before trying to go to sleep to help your brains stimulation calm down enough for you to sleep.
