The calcium in milk is a calming substance. Drinking warm drinks is a great habit to relax the body, like a reward at the end of the day. Milk contains two hypnotic substances.
One is L, a raw material that can promote serotonin synthesis in sleep, and because of the effect of L, a glass of milk is often needed to make people fall asleep. The other is a peptide that has a regulatory effect on the physiological functions of the body, among which there are several "opioid peptides", which can be combined with the central nervous system or peripheral opioid peptide receptors to exert an anesthetic and analgesic effect similar to opium, so that the whole body has a sense of comfort, which is conducive to falling asleep and relieving fatigue, and will not make people addicted. The hypnotic effect of milk is especially pronounced in people with weak and neurasthenic bodies.
Therefore, you can drink a glass of warm milk before going to bed.

This should vary from person to person, I used to be in high school when I didn't have a mobile phone or anything, and I used to listen to the radio before going to bed, because at that time, everyone went to bed late when I was doing homework, and the radio programs at that time were softer and easy to help sleep. Now I usually listen to some cross talk that I can memorize, because I know what will be said below, and I always time it to turn off for 20 minutes, but I never make it to the end. In the same way, you can listen to some familiar sketches, storytelling, **, etc.
