Alright, let’s talk about your smartphone and how it’s ruining your sleep—yes, even though it’s the thing that wakes you up in the morning. These days, who doesn’t use their phone as an alarm clock, right? But hold up, before you toss your phone under the pillow and hit snooze for the 10th time, there’s a little something you should know.

Experts are saying you might actually be better off with a good ol’ fashioned alarm clock. Yeah, you heard me—one of those with the big red digits or the ringing bell that won’t stop unless you get up. Dr. Shalini Paruthi, a sleep specialist (and trust me, her business card is as long as a scroll), says keeping your phone out of reach is a solid move.

She explains that leaving your phone in another room can help you avoid the temptation of late-night doomscrolling. Plus, no more snooze-button addictions in the morning—your phone is just too tempting, and you’ll find yourself scrolling through Instagram when you should be sleeping. Oh, and let’s not forget—those bright lights? Yeah, not exactly helping your brain say, “Hey, it’s time to fall asleep.”

Honestly, I can barely remember how to use a real alarm clock these days. Do those things come with apps now or what?
