March is National Sleep Awareness Month, and with Daylight Saving Time just having kicked in (long yawn…), we’re all about making sure you spring forward—without feeling like you got hit by a truck.
Losing an hour of sleep might not seem like a big deal, but according to this article published in TIME:
“Research has shown that losing an hour of sleep may cause you to eat roughly 200 more calories the next day, primarily from fat- and carbohydrate-heavy foods. Exercise endurance also falters after a night of inadequate sleep…. your workout will likely be sluggish. Work or school performance may also suffer, she adds, citing studies that have found an uptick in “cyberloafing” — or wasting time online — in the days after DST.”
Instead of struggling through the time change, try these biohacks to reset your sleep cycle and wake up refreshed:
1. Get Morning Sunlight.
The best way to reset your internal clock? Natural light first thing in the morning. Make it a point to step outside, drink your coffee on the porch, or take a quick walk… whatever it takes to get that morning light. Sunlight signals your body to wake up and helps you fall asleep easier at night.
2. Upgrade Your Sleep Environment.
A cool, dark, and quiet room is key. Blackout curtains, white noise, and an EMF-free zone can make a world of difference. Speaking of EMFs—did you know that TRU47 offers sleep-enhancing silver-infused blankets, masks, and grounding sheets? They help block EMFs, reduce microbial exposure, and promote deeper rest. Science-backed sleep luxury! (TIP: Save 10% with code: TRU10ALG)
3. Power Down Before Bed.
Blue light from screens messes with melatonin, your sleep hormone. Shut down devices at least an hour before bed—or try blue light-blocking glasses if you can’t resist a last scroll.
4. Wind Down With a Sleep Ritual.
Whether it’s a cup of chamomile tea, a magnesium soak, or a few deep breaths, find a routine that signals “bedtime mode” to your brain. Even just reading a book instead of doomscrolling can make a huge difference.
