Avoid Novel or Stress-Inducing Stimulation Before Sleep

Avoid highly novel or stress-inducing stimulation just before bed, including stress-inducing video games, because it may excite arousal systems and impair sleep quality.

1 / 1

Well, I would also avoid anything just prior to going to sleep that might excite those systems. So a lot of novelty, stress-inducing video games.
