It is now that it is necessary to act.
Winter is coming to an end. The arrival of March marks the return of less cool temperatures, more important and longer sunshine. In short, that good news for the morale and energy of the body. But maybe not for long … General fatigue should occur in a few days or rather a few weeks and it is now that you have to act if you want to escape it.
What is the essential event in March? Spring yes, but not only. There is another event that returns each year at the end of this month and particularly disrupts the organization, especially the youngest. It also occurs in October but is much better experienced. An idea of the famous phenomenon? This is the time change. Scheduled on the night of March 29 to 30, the transition to summer time will be a test for the organization, much more than that of the winter time. For good reason, the summer time implies the loss of one hour of sleep per night and all the experts say it, it is bad for the organization.
“Research shows that summer time disrupts our biological (circadian) clock by reducing exposure to the morning in the morning, which pushes our sleep hours and can have negative effects on our health“said Biologist Carla Finkelstein of Society for Research in Biological Rhythms at the American site Newsweek. According to her, “Staying at normal time all year round is much better for our circadian rhythms, our general health and our well-being”. But unfortunately, we cannot go against the time change acted in France since 1975. So how do you reduce associated fatigue as much as possible? The biologist has a very simple advice : “Try not to go to bed late” The evening of the time change.
“”Already that we deprive our body of an hour of sleep that day, we should not accumulate fatigue either. You can set an hour to sleep around 11 p.m. ” Dr. Catherine Lamblin, sleep doctor, advised us in a previous article on the passage at the summer time. Nor should you arrive at the time change with too much sleep debt. Two to three days before, it is advisable to go to bed slightly earlier than usual – around twenty minutes – to gradually shift and adapt to the new day/night cycle. The day after the time change, “We have to listen to our body and go to bed when we feel fatigue “ concludes Dr. Lamblin.
