Average Reading Time: 7 minutes

Most of us try to go from inbox to pillow in five minutes, then wonder why our minds won’t switch off. Your brain actually needs a wind-down window — a short, gentle runway where light gets dimmer, thoughts get simpler, and your nervous system eases from “do” to “rest.” Clinical guidance backs this up: consistent routines and a cool, dark, quiet sleep space reliably improve sleep quality. 

A couple of easy wins:

• Dim the lights and park the screens 60 minutes before bed — evening blue-light exposure can delay your internal clock and suppress melatonin, making it harder to drift off. Swap the phone for a paper book. 

• Keep it cool — overheating fragments deep and REM sleep; cooler rooms support more restorative sleep. (source)

• Small ritual, big signal — journaling, light stretches or breathing practice tells your body it’s safe to relax. Guidance from national health orgs consistently includes relaxation in pre-sleep routines. (source)

Where Snooze fits
Our Snooze Sleep Gummies are built for that wind-down window — a simple, nightly ritual with chamomile, lemon balm, saffron, zinc & vitamin B6 to support evening calm. Use them alongside low light and a consistent routine for best results.
