With the hecticness of our daily lives, getting great sleep is important to both our physical and mental health. According to Sleep Facts in the U.S. 2025, published by Global Statistics, adults should aim for at least seven hours of sleep per night — yet 35% of U.S. adults report they’re not achieving this goal.*

Building a consistent sleep routine to wind down each night can help support healthier sleep habits and improve overall sleep quality. Consider these helpful tips to evolve your sleep routine and feel ready to take on tomorrow.

1. Establish a Consistent Sleep Schedule 

Set a clock to go to bed and wake up at the same time every day—even on weekends. Maintaining a consistent sleep schedule helps regulate your body’s internal clock and will help support a restful night of sleep.

2. Create a Wind Down Routine Before Bedtime 

Following a nighttime routine can help signal to your body that it’s time to relax. Soft music, reading, and unplugging from electronics can soothe your body and mind, preparing you for rest.

3. Set Up a Relaxing Environment 

A quiet, dark, and comfortable bedroom promotes better sleep. Consider using a sleep mask, white noise machine, or earplugs to minimize disruptions and create an optimal sleep environment. 

4. Relax Your Mind 

A racing mind can lead to tossing and turning at night. Practice light stretching, meditation, or guided breathing to help calm your thoughts and ease the transition into slumber.

Establishing healthy sleep habits through small changes practiced consistently can lead to more restful nights and energized mornings.
