If this night owl can do it, so can you.
on your smartphone. These features work a bit differently, but both are designed to limit phone-related distractions when you’re trying to wind down. These modes are also highly customizable. For example, you can set limits for apps that tempt you to stay up, turn off notifications for anyone who isn’t family, or have the phone automatically switch to Dark Mode. It requires some experimentation, but the important thing is it acts as a signal to put down your phone.
Smart lighting is also an excellent way to customize your sleeping environment. We have a complete guide to smart lighting, but one cool thing is you can program your lights to dim at a specific time. If you’re all in on the smart home, you can also sync up your lights along with lowering the thermostat and queue up a soothing playlist. Smart plugs are another good option here if you just want to turn a device on or off at a specific time.
If that’s too complicated, you could always opt for a sunrise lamp. These lamps are essentially a type of smart alarm clock where an artificial light source simulates sunrise. The idea is to replace sound-based alarms with a more gentle, noninvasive method that takes advantage of your natural circadian rhythms. Many modern sunrise lamps can also double as reading lamps that use warm lighting to help you relax at night.
My personal setup these days is a lot simpler. I’ve got a smart diffuser that kicks on at 9PM, and my humidifier’s hooked up to a smart plug that turns on at 9:30PM. Both automatically turn off at 1AM. My phone’s Sleep Focus turns on at 10:15PM, and I’m usually asleep by 10:30PM. At 6:15AM, my Apple Watch starts vibrating to wake me up without bothering my spouse.
I know I’ll need to tweak this down the line. In fact, I just added the diffuser this past month and removed a sunrise lamp that only woke me up half the time. That said, doing all thishelped me wake up earlier 90 percent of the time while improving my overall quality of sleep — even if my cat does his best. I don’t always succeed, but after a decade of trying to change my sleep habits, I can genuinely say that focusing on the night before makes a world of difference.
