Why Your Brain Won’t Chill at Bedtime

Ever feel like your brain’s throwing a dance party just as you’re trying to sleep? Neuroscientist Dr. Wendy Suzuki says it’s because your mind is stuck in stress mode—even if your body’s wiped out. Emotional days, big changes, or too much screen time can keep your thoughts racing. Her go-to fix? A body scan: start at your toes, notice tension, and let it go as you move up. It’s all about tuning into your body to hit the brakes on your brain. Anyone else have weird bedtime rituals that actually work? #SleepHacks #MentalHealth #StressRelief #Health
