Bedtime Routine for Adults
A useful evening routine does not need twenty rules. Start with a clear stopping point, prepare one practical thing for tomorrow and reduce the decisions still waiting for you at the end of the day.
A smaller evening checklist
Prepare
Put one useful thing ready for tomorrow.
Reduce
Remove one avoidable decision or interruption.
Leave room
The rest of the evening does not need to become another task list.
From the existing My Evening Checklist
Choose familiar tasks
- Something for tomorrow I would like to put ready
- Space for a note on your own copy
- An unfinished task I can leave a note about
- Space for a note on your own copy
- Something optional I would enjoy in this evening
- Space for a note on your own copy
Choose ordinary preparation tasks you want to remember. This is a personal organization list, not a sleep treatment or a promise of better sleep. Copy the prompts to paper or your own notes; no answers are collected.
