That's why many people fit sessions into an evening routine.

Honest caveat: direct evidence that red light improves sleep is still early and limited, so keep expectations realistic. If you try it, keep it low-key in the evening, stay consistent, and see how your sleep responds. Anyone noticed a difference — and what time of day do you use it?
