    Episode 5: Screen Time Connected to Poor Sleep and Lack of Energy

    This episode is slightly different than the others. There is one main point, and I explore 3 different sources to back me up. The articles were "Doing Nothing Can Make You More Productive", "Why You Should Ditch Your Phone Before Bed", and "How Electronics Affect Sleep". I talked about our phones distracting us before bed, the effects of blue light, melatonin decreases, how your screens stimulate you before bed, the importance of nightly routines, and more. Follow along with me by accessing the articles with these links(they are in the order listed above): https://time.com/6254135/doing-nothing-more-productive/ https://health.clevelandclinic.org/put-the-phone-away-3-reasons-why-looking-at-it-before-bed-is-a-bad-habit https://www.sleepfoundation.org/how-sleep-works/how-electronics-affect-sleep
