A bedtime that actually starts at bedtime

At 9:45pm, your calendar says it's time to wind down. Four minutes, lights low, one slow breath pattern. It also warns you before every 2027 clock change.

What shows up next

Wind-down: start your 4-minute reset · 9:45 PM

Lights down, screens off or dimmed, and one slow minute of breathing (in for 4, out for 6). A consistent wind-down cue helps your brain recognise bedtime.

Clocks go forward tonight (UK & EU)

European summer time starts at 1:00am UTC on Sunday, March 28, 2027. Shift bedtime a little earlier over the next few nights.

Nov6Sat

The best-supported sleep advice is boring: the same bedtime and wake time every day, and a calm routine before bed. The hard part is noticing the time. This calendar puts a short wind-down cue at 9:45pm in your local time zone, every night.

It also flags the 2027 daylight saving changes for the US and Canada (March 14 and November 7) and the UK/EU (March 28), the nights that wreck sleep schedules for days afterwards.
