Here's a summary:

- I wear an oura ring which has made me aware of the negative impact things like alcohol and sporadic schedules have on sleep quality.

- I don't bring my phone into my room. This removes all distractions, and means I get out of bed as soon as I woke up instead of endlessly scrolling. If I wake up in the middle of the night I am not tempted to go on HN or reddit.

- I invested heavily in my bed. I got an eight sleep which is temperature controlled. I love a cool bed and eight makes this happen all night every night. I also bought nice bedding and sheets for the first time in my life.

- I take a magnesium suppliment (the science is not very strong on this but I've found it helps).

- Finally I have a wind down hour before bed, I start with a shower, do some stretching and then some reading, this calms my mind before bedtime
