Pre-Sleep Routine Design

Meaning

Pre-Sleep Routine Design is the systematic and intentional creation of a sequence of evening behaviors and environmental adjustments intended to optimize the transition from wakefulness to restorative sleep. This design process focuses on regulating the nervous system, modulating light exposure, and timing nutrient intake to support the natural, nocturnal rise in melatonin and the shift to parasympathetic dominance. A well-designed routine is a crucial, non-pharmacological tool for improving sleep quality and hormonal health.
