When you struggle to sleep, you may blame caffeine, alcohol, or stress. But according to BON CHARGE Scientific Advisor, Dr Rangan Chatterjee, we’re often missing another important factor: light.
It’s easy to think sleep starts the moment your head hits the pillow, but the foundations for sleep are shaped by the light cues your body receives throughout the day.
The good news? You don’t need a perfect routine to make supportive changes.
Dr Chatterjee breaks down simple, realistic daily routine shifts to support your circadian rhythm:
Morning: Get natural light early to ground your internal body clock.
Evening: Reduce blue light impact with warmer display settings or consider blue light blocking glasses.
Wind-down: Stacking calming habits into routines you already have.
