Do you need transition time before bed? Some peop Do you need transition time before bed?

Some people can wrap up their evening and fall asleep within minutes.
Others need time to decompress and shift from problem-solving or performing into rest.

Neither is right or wrong.

But if you need that buffer, skipping it often leads to:

- Feeling wired even when exhausted
- Replaying conversations or to-do lists
- Lying awake despite being tired

Transition time isn’t extra.
It helps your nervous system feel safe enough to power down.

🕯️ Try adding a small, intentional buffer between “doing” and “resting.” It doesn’t have to be perfect or quiet, just supportive.

What helps you wind down before bed? 🌙

Supporting a partner who struggles with sleep isn’ Supporting a partner who struggles with sleep isn’t always easy.

When the person you love lies awake night after night, it can feel frustrating, helpless, and even isolating — for both of you. Sleep struggles don’t just affect the person who’s awake; they ripple through the relationship too.

If your partner has trouble sleeping, know this: it’s not laziness, lack of effort, or something they can simply switch off. It’s often a nervous system that hasn’t learned how to fully rest yet.

Support starts with understanding — and knowing you’re not alone in this. 💛

You don’t have to do everything—just start gently. Small, supportive changes can make a real difference when it comes to settling your nervous system and supporting better sleep over time.

Progress over perfection. One step is enough.

Sleep has a way of following.
