Building an evening ritual that actually helps you sleep

Good sleep rarely comes from one heroic intervention. It comes from a repeatable wind-down that signals safety to your nervous system: dimmer light, a consistent time, less input, and gentle mineral support.

The ninety-minute rule

The period between 90 minutes before sleep and lights-out is the most consequential window for sleep quality. What you do here determines how quickly you fall asleep and how deep that sleep will be.

Build your ritual

• Dim the lights — Reduce overhead lighting 90 minutes before bed.
• Lower input — No screens, no news, no problem-solving.
• Magnesium — Gentle mineral support helps signal relaxation to the nervous system.
• Consistency — The same time, the same steps, every night.

Over a few weeks, a considered evening ritual compounds into deeper, more restorative rest.
