When it's hard to switch off

How to relax before bed

Busy days are part of life, and some can feel full before lunchtime. By the time evening comes around, our minds are still buzzing. If you find it hard to switch off in the evening, you're not alone. Often, it's simply the day lingering a little longer than we'd like. The good news is that small, gentle practices can help create a sense of calm, making it easier to slow down and settle into rest – without adding anything else to your to-do list. Here are a few things that can help in the evening…

Meditation Guided meditations can be a lovely way to soften the noise of the day and give your mind something gentle to focus on. Even a few minutes can help you feel more settled as you ease towards sleep.

Gentle movement A relaxed stretch or a few slow yoga poses can help release any tension you've been holding onto. Moving slowly, focusing on your breath, and tuning into how your body feels can be a simple way to let the day go.

Sound baths & sleep music Soft soundscapes or calming music can help create a soothing atmosphere in the evening. They can be especially helpful if your mind feels busy, offering a sense of comfort as you unwind.

There's no right or wrong way to wind down – it's about finding what feels supportive for you, even if it's just a small moment of calm at the end of the day. Team DE x
