On March 31, we switch to summer time – 2024-03-30 05:24:17

Perhaps we are moving the clock for the last time

The time change in 2024 is in Sunday, March 31. Then we move the hands forward one hour and from 3:00 at night it’s 4:00 a.m. So we switch to summer time.

For many, this is a challenge because the sudden change of an hour forward or backward affects their habits and health. There are ways to make the time change easier on the body, notes CNET, but they require a little advance preparation.

The first option is for one to start changing the time of getting up more smoothly earlier. It usually takes about a week for the body to adapt on its own. But it can be helped if, in the days before the shift, a person begins to gradually set his alarm clock ten minutes ahead every day or two. If possible, it is recommended to compensate for the difference by going to bed a little earlier.

Another idea is a short nap during the day – no more than 20 minutes, which will give you extra energy. Of course, this is not possible for many during the workday.

One can also help oneself with the diet – to reduce alcohol and caffeine, as well as heavier dinners. This will help with overall better sleep.

For people who have trouble falling asleep after such an early rise, a few minutes of light physical activity is recommended. Basic exercise or even just going out into the yard or balcony into the light will help to stop the release of melatonin more quickly and thus make it easier to fall asleep.
