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

Download a free blue light filter and use it at night. The blue light emitted by our phone screens is what prevents us from getting tired. By filtering out the blue light, even when looking at your phone you will notice that you still get sleepy and are able to sleep.

Create a schedule for yourself. Identify a time that you will turn your phone off or keep it out of reach each night. Getting in the habit of putting your phone down at the same time every night will make it easier to remember and it will become a normal part of your day.

I have struggled with this too! I can tell you I have slept SO much better since I made one change. I set a rule that my phone gets put to 'sleep' one hour before I go to bed. So if i want to go to bed at 11, then i put my iPhone to silent and on the charger in another room by 10. Do it ! trust me so worth it!

By thinking to yourself that you'll harm your eyes and your health if you don't put it down. And that there's gonna be another whole day to use your phone

1) just do it-place it somewhere in the other corner of your room, set it on silent mode and turn off all the notifications as well as sound and vibration so it won't pull you back, do something else in that time for example reading a book or thinking about some sort of nice, relaxing topic 2) do it gradually, turn off the sound and vibration first, while doing smth else like reading a book. Allow yourself to look at your phone every 10-20 mins but after a while turn off all sort of notifications and internet connection I gotta say that first nights might be difficult and you might experience insomnia but if you stay strong for these couple of hours you will notice that with time you will need your phone less and less and less and at some point of time not at all. Good luck!

What works for me is just impromptu putting it down then try to sleep. It could be just staying still for a time, deep breathing or formulating a story in my head until I fall asleep.

Studies suggest that you are electronic free for two hours before you go to sleep. Try keeping your phone away from your room and reading before you go to bed. Even eat a snack a couple minutes before you go to sleep to improve sleep. You can do it!

Simply take a deep breath, look away from the screen and then realize how good it feels to not have your eyes fixed on a small, radiation emitting rectangle. Then reflect on the positive aspects of life until eventually, you find yourself dreaming...

Whenever I'm struggling to put the phone down at night, I plug in the charger on the other side of the room. That way I can't lay in bed with it, and I know I'll suffer way more if it isn't charged in the morning!

Do not have next to you when you sleep. Turn the ringer off so incoming messages and calls don't disturb you when you are in bed. If you keep your phone on throughout the night, put it on charge away from your bed and still turn the ringer off.
