Most of us are glued to our cell phones. Even if we\u2019re good about skipping that hourly email check when we\u2019re home with our families or putting it on silent at night, having that little piece of amazing technology in our pockets, purses and hands for most of the day is exhausting. So why take it with you when you go to bed?<\/p>\n

It\u2019s tempting to lay in bed and read on your phone, check a few late night emails, play a little game, set a phone alarm\u2026 but how is having your phone right there impacting your sleep? Getting a good night\u2019s sleep and taking on the day well rested is a vital part of business success<\/a> \u2013 and yet we\u2019re bombarded with technology literally up to the minute we fall asleep. Your brain needs time to turn off\u2026 and that requires turning off the distractions like your cell phone.<\/p>\n

Even if you do a great job of leaving work at work whenever possible, your cell phone can still be hurting your sleep cycle. Waking up in the middle of the night is a terrible feeling and losing those minutes \u2013 or even hours \u2013 of deep sleep can have a real impact on how you feel for the day, so why chance having your cell phone beep, ring, buzz, flash or do any of those things that can startle you out of your dreams?<\/p>\n

At The Growth Coach<\/a>, we want to challenge you. Put your phone in the kitchen. In the living room. In the study. Even on the other side of the bedroom. But do yourself and your business a favor and move it away from your nightstand. Just give it a shot and see how if it helps you sleep better. Does your email really need to be the very first thing you see when you wake up? We bet it can wait until after your shower. If it\u2019s an emergency, they\u2019ll probably call you anyway.<\/p>\n

And if you need a scientific reason to skip taking the phone to bed, a study by Harvard Health<\/a> showed that the blue light emitted from your cell phone \u2013 and many other electronics \u2013 can impact your body\u2019s production, which can impact your sleep and your health overall.<\/p>\n
