I am solidly a morning bird, I can fall asleep extremely quickly and I enjoy waking up early. The issue I am running into is sleep procrastination. If there is anything I need to do at night, even a bedtime routine, it’s like my brain says “I’m too tired to do these tasks, but you can’t go to sleep until you do, so I guess we’re staying up”.

I yo-yo between times of having a good sleep schedule, but then I want to try a new habit like journaling or skincare, but then it becomes a night time task and it pushes back my bedtime because I procrastinate sometimes for hours.

If I ban myself from doing habits at night, like I can just fall asleep, then I end up not doing HW or never journaling etc. I would put them as a morning routine, but menial stuff like that usually slows the momentum of my mornings (eg journaling instead of “eating the frog”)

Idk if this question makes sense but how do you make a night routine that doesn’t feel like more things to do or specifically how have you defeated sleep procrastination?
