This Sleep Awareness Month, clinical psychologist and sleep researcher Dr. Mike Gradisar shares why you need a bedtime routine, what to consider when creating yours, and how it can help you improve your sleep.

Before, I let sleep control me instead of the other way around. I saw it as a waste of time rather than an investment. No matter how long I stayed in bed, I often woke up more tired than when I went to sleep. It showed in my training: my runs felt heavy, recovery took longer, and progress slowed. The shift happened when I started asking myself why. How could I put in the work every day, yet still wake up drained? That question pushed me to track my nights consistently with Sleep Cycle. I began noticing patterns in my bedtime routines, my wake windows, and the phases of sleep. After committing to consistency, everything changed. Mornings felt lighter, my days stretched longer, and recovery became faster. Sleep turned from a weakness into one of my strongest tools as an athlete.
