"Go to bed and wake up at the same time each day," says licensed psychologist Erika Martinez, Psy.D., CDWF. Avoid bright lights and LED screens 30 to 45 minutes before time, she advises.

"Try to embrace any kind of mindfulness practice," suggests Martinez. This includes activities such as meditation, yoga, mindful walking, prayer, and breath work, as they are all good ways for calming your nervous system.

"If you can't commit to a whole month, then consider just doing it from Friday to Sunday night for the month," says Martinez. She also points out that it's often also helpful to detox from one platform altogether — so maybe try giving up Facebook this week and Instagram next.
