If you are also addicted to using your smartphone at night, then it is important to know how harmful it can be for your health.
Using a smartphone at night affects your sleep due to the blue light emitted from its screen. This light prevents the production of a hormone called melatonin, which is responsible for good sleep. Due to this, sleep is not complete and the next day feels tired.
Looking at a smartphone in the dark for a long time increases the strain on the eyes. Due to this, the eyes start becoming dry, become red and the risk of vision becoming weak increases.
Using a smartphone at night does not give the brain time to rest. This can increase problems like stress and anxiety. Also, the habit of constantly checking notifications destroys mental peace.
Using the smartphone in wrong posture can cause neck and back pain. It is also called “Tech Neck”.
To avoid these, stop using the smartphone 1-2 hours before sleeping. Turn on blue light filter. Make a habit of reading a book or meditating at night. Keep the device away from the bed.
Using smartphone at night is just a habit, which can be changed with a little effort. If you give priority to your health, it will be easy to stay away from smartphones.
