I will tell you what works for me. 

..I’m a young man so, you could understand I’m into social media, games, web-series. 

..so, I make a routine. 1 hour before going to bed I almost avoid my phone to use. 

In the beginning. I felt desperate to use the phone to see WhatsApp messages, check emails. 

But days after days I trained my mind, not to use a mobile phone before bedtime.

I didn’t directly jump to the 1-hour rule.
