Full Moon Sleep Plan: 10-Minute Routine for Tonight

Full Moon Sleep Plan: 10-Minute Routine for Tonight

Lunar Phase Rest Strategy: 10-Minute Regimen for This Evening

When the moon goes full (or an eclipse lights up the feed), bedtime gets loud: brighter skies, later screens, buzzing brains. Hype is fun; groggy mornings aren’t. Here’s a simple, science-sane routine to keep your circadian rhythm steady tonight and feel human tomorrow.

Why full moons/eclipses mess with sleep

Later light exposure: Extra sky glow + “just one more scroll” keeps melatonin low.

Arousal + routine break: Events run late; your brain learns “wake.”

Dry A/C nights: Stuffy air = shallow breathing = restless sleep.

10-Minute Wind-Down (do this)

Switch to amber lighting 60–90 minutes before bed. Keep light aimed at the page, not your eyes.

Start your diffuser: Add water + 3–6 drops of lavender/chamomile. Cool mist only—no heat, no humidifier tanks.

One minute of 4-7-8 breathing: Inhale 4, hold 7, exhale 8, repeat ×4.

Screens on lockdown: If you must check the eclipse feed, use Night Shift/blue-light filters and stop after step 1.

Room basics: Cool, dark, quiet. Phone outside arm’s reach.

“I stayed up late anyway” (next-day recovery)

Morning light hit (5–10 min): Step outside; anchor your clock.

Hydrate + protein breakfast: Don’t chase fatigue with sugar.

Micro-nap (10–20 min) before 3pm if you’re cooked.

Caffeine cutoff by early afternoon.

Keep it simple, keep it nightly

Ritual beats willpower. Same time, same steps, small wins. When the sky goes drama-mode, your bedroom stays boring (that’s the point).
