No More Nighttime Chaos
You check the clock. Somehow it’s already 10 p.m. and you’re just winding down from getting your kids to bed. Shaking your head you think, “Why is it that one night, things go smoothly. Then the next, it’s like I’m herding cats to get them ready for bed and actually sleeping? I just want consistent relaxing nights!”
Well, what if I told you it’s possible to have confidence in knowing every night, your child will be motivated to get ready and fall asleep with little help? Because it is possible.
If you haven’t checked it out yet, I have a* blog **all about the importance of a morning routine. Because as it turns out, having set procedures in place for starting your day is just as important. *
The Benefits of a Consistent Nightly Routine
The Sleep Foundation found that a consistent nightly routine helps your child by:
Giving them a sense of security
Teaching them to fall asleep on their own
Helping them stay asleep and sleep longer
A nightly routine is essential in the Happy Life System because it will:
Anchor in positivity for the next day
Empower everyone in your family to take control of their life
Lead to a happier life!
Wouldn’t it be amazing if your children were not just motivated to do all the things brush their teeth, put on their pajamas, and snuggle into bed without it being a battle? And what if they didn’t just go through the motions, but actually enjoyed it?
Sounding like you yourself have fallen asleep and you’re having a wonderful dream? Luckily, no dreaming (yet)! When you have a consistent nightly routine, the health and happiness of your entire family will benefit.
How the Happy Life System Enhances Nightly Routines
The great news is that the Happy Life System that I introduced to you last week is not just designed for the morning routine. It is for the nightly routine, as well! Here are two easy tips from the Happy Life System’s nightly routine that will help seal the day with the highest mental and emotional state possible!
- Seal Your Intentions
With the morning routine, you set your intentions for the day. In the evening, it’s time to reflect on those intentions. Take out the paper that you wrote them on and honor your dedication by checking them off. You are sealing your intentions by reaffirming exactly what you want in life.
- Refresh Your Space
When you woke up, you freshened up your space. Before bed, you want to do the same. A refreshed space before sleep boosts your self-esteem, increases clarity and productivity, and ensures less stress in your life.

One night it goes perfectly. The next you are herding them like cats at 11 p.m. trying to get them to bed.
Ahhhh! I just want a relaxing night!
Well, what if I told you it’s possible to have relaxing nights where your child is motivated to put themselves to bed every night?
Because it is possible.
Last week, I talked to you about how important it is to remove the chaos from the morning routine. Turns out, the nightly routine is just as important!
The Sleep Foundation found that a consistent nightly routine helps your child by:
Giving them a sense of security.
Teaching them to fall asleep on their own.
Helping them stay asleep and sleep longer.
In addition to that, a nightly routine is essential in the Happy Life System because it will:
