Bonding with your family can be crucial. Take a little extra time each evening to sit down with your loved ones. Maybe read a story to the little ones, snuggle with that special someone, or even have a drink with your roommate. This is a great way to end your day and bring a smile to your face.

Studies show that reading before going to bed can have benefits for your health. The reading material doesn’t matter. It just needs to keep your attention well enough for you to be consumed at the moment.

Engaging your mind into another world is very relaxing and will help with stress relief.

4. Write

It may surprise you to find out that many people still keep a journal. This can be very soothing right before dozing off for the night. You can simply write down the thoughts you are experiencing at that moment or maybe you want to keep up with what happens in your life day by day. An interesting fact is that the thoughts we have right before falling asleep are often times some of the most honest thoughts you experience and are usually forgotten so what better way to keep up with them by writing them down.
