• Support natural melatonin production – get morning sunlight exposure and reduce bright light at night.

• Reduce stimulants – limit caffeine and alcohol, especially in the afternoon and evening.

• Balance nutrition – include foods rich in magnesium, zinc, and B vitamins to support sleep quality.

• Manage stress – gentle exercise, relaxation breathing, or mindfulness before bed can improve results.
