Advice for the treatment of delayed sleep phase

• Exposure to bright light, shortly after awakening, may help to reset the body clock
• Reduce exposure to light in the evening and in particular avoid screen time an hour or longer before bed
• Shifting the bedtime schedule: move bedtime gradually forward, by 15-30 minutes each night, until you get to the desired bedtime.
• Improving sleep hygiene, keeping regular hours and only using the bedroom for sleeping can help to strengthen the body clock
