1-Minuten-Habit für 8. September
Set a 'Bedtime' focus or downtime mode on your phone
Warum dieses Habit hilft
The constant ping of notifications creates 'anticipatory anxiety,' keeping your brain in a state of high alert. Enabling a focus mode creates a predictable, notification-free environment, signaling to your primal brain that it's safe to power down for restoration.
Digital boundaries protect your circadian rhythm by reducing exposure to sleep-disrupting blue light and the cognitive arousal caused by engaging with content, allowing melatonin production to rise naturally for deeper, more restorative sleep.

- Radically reduces sleep-disrupting cognitive and sensory stimulation

- Decreases 'sleep procrastination' by removing infinite scroll temptation
- Creates a powerful ritual that cues your brain for wind-down time
Kurz erklärt
Your phone's bedtime mode is a modern-day 'drawbridge.' By raising it at a set time, you are actively protecting the castle of your mind and sleep from digital invaders. This isn't a restriction; it's a declaration of sovereignty over your attention and time.
This single automated action is one of the highest-return investments in your health. Quality sleep underpins mental clarity, emotional regulation, immune function, and metabolic health. You are programming your environment to program your biology.

💬 Deine Erfolgsgeschichten
I was a chronic night-scroller. I'd tell myself '5 more minutes' and end up losing an hour of sleep. Setting a strict bedtime focus mode was the only thing that worked. The first few nights were hard, but now when the screen dims and goes quiet, it's my signal that the day is over. My sleep quality has improved dramatically.
