A healthy sleep routine is one of the most powerful ways to support your mental health. During adolescence, your brain and body are changing fast — and sleep is when a lot of that work happens. But with school, stress, social life, and screens, it’s easy to fall into patterns of staying up too late and not getting enough rest. Over time, poor sleep can affect your mood, energy, memory, and make it harder to manage stress or anxiety.


If you’re constantly tired, irritable, or struggling to focus, your sleep routine might need attention. The good news? Small changes can make a big difference. Below are healthy sleep resources for youth to help you build healthier sleep habits and protect your emotional wellbeing.


Find our recommended resources focused on healthy sleep for youth, young adults, their families, as well as broader community allies below.
