Listen to audio books. Science fiction short stories before bed. Start with sub-half hour stories. Plenty of good ones.

I read the books before going to sleep. Set a time. No tv no phone. Book… sleep. Helps calm the mind.
The only issue with this is that it trains you to be tired when you read; not so good when you get tired in the middle of the day because you had to read something more than a few pages long
True. Took me years to undo it and even now I’ll have to get up and go do something to kill that cycle.
Depends on the content. Sometimes I stay up past my usual time because the content is very interesting.
Do you think this will have any cognitive benefit or just a way of passing time?
Where do you recommend I search?
there's studies showing. theres not much difference.
entertainment I'll listen to books, but anything I actually want to retain I read the physical book so I can still make notes.
audible has had to audio book market as a monopoly for many years. theres a few smaller ones just popping up like Chirp. your local library, full audio books on You Tube or torrenting somewhere.
Reverting to mummy and daddy reading bed time stories is not the answer.
