Full moons can make the brain buzzy. A one-hour screen fade-out plus warm lamps and brown noise keeps the studio from following you into bed.

Calm the room
#

  • Kill overheads; use warm lamps and bias light at low levels.
  • Route sleep tech separate from work gear so you can power down monitors fully.
  • If you share walls, go for a small dedicated noise machine—no phone required.

  • Compact white/brown noise machines with physical dials and off switches.
  • Warm, dimmable bedside lamp; no blue spill.
  • Soft-edge key light or lantern diffuser if you stream before bed and need gentler light.

One-hour fade-out ritual
#

T-60: Alarm: “Screens off.” Monitors/TV off; only a dimmed phone/e-reader if needed.
T-50: Noise on: white/brown noise or a short, low-stakes audio loop.
T-40: Slow task: paper journaling, light stretch, or breathwork.
T-10: Lights down to minimum; no app hopping.
Bed: Sleep tech stays on; all work gear stays off.

Let the moon do its thing while you do yours: rest. Favorite brown-noise device that isn’t app-dependent? I want real-nightstand picks.
