Daylight Savings Time. Ugh, it is a struggle sometimes. I’ve been noticing that my body is struggling to sleep until my intended wake time. My Oura Ring has helped me figure out that my body does best when I sleep from 10:30 PM to 6:30 AM. Before the time change, I was often waking up between 5:30 and 6 AM and then doing a 30 minute hypnosis or two so that I could still get good rest (and heal my nervous system) until it was time to get up. But now that the clocks have changed, my body seems to think that I should wake between 4:30-5 AM because that’s the time it’s used to getting up. I’ve had parents telling me that their kids are waking earlier this week too! Oura put a post on their blog that I thought was super interesting about the impact of daylight savings time on sleep. I am taking what I learned and taking some proactive steps for the spring, and I thought I would pass them along.
