what are some tips or routines that are great for getting to sleep?
Right now, I go to sleep 1+ hours after I actually settle in bed. I toss and turn and my mind never chills out. I was just wondering how I can shift my routine to get to sleep faster. Right now I just throw a podcast on and hop in bed.

At least 1 hour (even longer, even better) before going to bed no more screens. (Phone, table, computer and if possible TV) If you watch TV at night, go for something positive, relaxing, funny, instead of crime or drama. Your brain has to work through challenging stuff. Also for your podcast, chose something positive. For me it works best to listen to something I already know, so my curiosity doesn’t keep me awake.
