Such controversy about... #DaylightSavingsUK

Read our 6 Sleep tips to combat its negative effects

March 25, 2018

#DaylightSavingsUK... Some say more daylight and energy savings but then others think this is imposing a mini jet-lag and proven increased risk to our health. In doubt, act! Here is how to get your circadian rhythm back on track.

Follow our daylight saving routine for a week :

1- Wake up at the same time as usual : what matters is when you wake up, that's when the body clock starts

 

2- Try not to nap and don't stay up later than usual


3- Go for a walk, every day! Make sure to get plenty of outdoor light between 10am and 4pm. You won't get enough light staying indoors, even in bright spaces.


4- Don't drink alcohol, avoid surgary foods and drinks, and stay away from heavy greasy anything


5- Make sure you limit your time on laptops and smartphones from 6pm onwards. Seriously. Self-control !


6- Prepare your night's sleep with cooler bedroom temperature, lavender oil or spray near your pillow and drink 30 drops of Dormeasan Valerian-Hops Oral Drops in a tiny bit of water
