One evening, I followed my new routine without thinking twice. I avoided late coffee, ate a satisfying dinner, lowered the bedroom temperature, and put my phone away. For the first time in weeks, bedtime didn’t feel like a challenge I needed to win.

I turned comfortably, closed my eyes, and allowed myself to rest. When morning arrived, I realized I had slept through the remainder of the night. Then I discovered the most important lesson.
