Beating Jet Lag
Jet lag occurs when your body's circadian rhythm is out of sync with your new time zone. The key to recovery is light exposure, sleep timing, and patience.
Recovery Strategies
- Light exposure: Get morning sun for eastward travel, evening sun for westward.
- Sleep timing: Try to sleep at local bedtime, even if you are not tired.
- Stay active: Exercise helps reset your body clock faster.
- Avoid naps: Long naps delay adaptation. If needed, keep them under 30 minutes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Most people need about one day per time zone crossed to fully recover. Crossing 3 time zones typically takes 2-3 days. Crossing 12+ time zones can take a week or more.
