"The presence of light, even through closed eyelids, can also trigger a response from the sympathetic nervous system, that part of your system that controls that fight or flight response."
Key Takeaways:
- Light exposure, especially blue light from screens and LED bulbs, can disrupt the body's natural circadian rhythm and suppress the production of melatonin, the hormone responsible for sleep regulation.
- Even the dimmest light can interfere with sleep, making it harder to fall asleep and reducing the depth of sleep.
- Creating a sleep-friendly environment involves gradually dimming lights before bedtime, avoiding screens for at least an hour before sleep, and using blue blocker glasses or screen filters.
- Controlling bedroom lighting with blackout curtains, sleep masks, or red/amber nightlights can enhance sleep quality.
- Alternatives to sleeping with the TV on include substituting noise with soothing sounds or sleep-friendly podcasts and practicing relaxation techniques like deep breathing or progressive muscle relaxation.
