Evening

An evening routine is a great way to relax and unwind after a long day. "Wind down and relax!" by setting aside a specific time each evening to do things that help you relax, like reading a book, listening to music, or taking a warm bath. You might also spend some time journaling or meditating to clear your mind and prepare for sleep. And don't forget to disconnect from screens and electronics at least an hour before bed – it can help you sleep better and wake up feeling refreshed.

Intent. A plan for winding down and preparing for bed.
