I propose the establishing of a routine through a journal or planner, where activities that involve technology and therefore blue light are scheduled further from bedtime. This means that the other activities, such as reading, cleaning, meditating, or writing , will provide enough of a buffer for melatonin to be released in your brain and your day will be completed just in time for your body to go to sleep at a healthy time. Providing space to write down your pre-sleep routine that follows good sleep hygiene guidelines will improve the quality of sleep that LFA students will get on the weeknights. Writing down a schedule will subconsciously force you to follow it because it acts as a goal that your brain wants to achieve. This way, students will get enough sleep during the week and no longer feel the need to overcorrect on the weekend (which is a complete myth by the way)
