Imagine this...
It’s 10 pm.
The day finally slows down… The dishes are done, kids asleep, maybe a cup of tea in hand.
You tell yourself, “Just one more scroll.”
And before you know it, your eyes are buzzing, your belly feels heavy, and sleep won’t come easily.
It’s not just the blue light.
It’s the message your body gets:
“It’s still daytime. Keep digesting. Stay awake.”
Our biology listens to light more than it listens to clocks.
Morning light tells your gut it’s time to move and make energy.
Evening darkness tells it to rest, repair, and heal.
So when screens glow long after sunset, our bodies stay in “go mode.""
Digestion slows. Hormones drift. We wake up tired and reach for more caffeine.
The fix isn’t perfection. It’s awareness.
✨ A little sunlight before screenlight.
✨ A few minutes of book time instead of phone time.
✨ A gentle “WiFi off” before bed.
Tiny rituals of rest bring your rhythm back.
Your gut and your sleep will thank you. 🌿
