In this episode of The Healthy Brain Podcast, I discuss how to create evening routines that support brain health. Evening routines directly impact sleep quality, nervous system regulation, and executive function skills, and overall the importance of ending the day in a calm and supportive way. I outline a four-step approach to setting up an effective evening routine.
