The Pitfalls of Daylight Savings Time
But I am trying to make better use of my mornings. I am not alone.
Because millions have been working from home due to the pandemic, a lot of people are struggling to regain their “morning mojo.”
The Wall Street Journal interviewed sleep and productivity experts to share some tips.
In a nutshell, you have to will yourself to become a better morning person by turning-in early — 10 p.m. is best — and rising at 5:30 a.m.
This gives you time to ease into the day with coffee, a walk or a bike ride or any other healthy activity. Plus, exposure to morning sunlight helps you to reset your circadian rhythm.
After two weeks of such clean living, the experts promise, you will own your mornings and be more rested and productive than you have ever been.
At least until March, when the clocks spring forward and your sleep mornings will be screwed up all over again.
