Who doesn’t want to feel energetic and ready to attack their day? Just because busyness rules the day, it does not have to rule the night. Learn how to fall back to spring forward.
I’m not sure where you are living, but this weekend is the end of daylight savings time. Most of us here in the U.S. gain an hour.

It’s where we fall back Saturday night into early Sunday morning.
If you go to church on Sunday, this is where everyone gets confused as to what time the service starts.
But seriously, sleep is vital to our health and well-being. If you don’t get sleep, your body and mind have no way to rejuvenate, restore, and repair.
Sleep is where your mind and body get to recharge for the next day.
Don’t deprive yourself of something that’s great!
Aim for eight!
The K.I.S.S. ~ Aim for eight!
You need sleep. I need sleep. We all need sleep to thrive. Even though our clocks are manmade, sleep is natural. So you gotta put in the time to spin on a dime.
If you want to be spot on, you must get your rest! Aim for eight!
- Embrace the obvious. Daylight savings time is ending. So there’s no need to fight what you can’t control. Instead, focus on what you can control — your bedtime. Get an extra hour of sleep and indulge a little more for your health. But if that doesn’t work for you, shift your bedtime by 30 minutes. You cut the time in half, and it allows you to slowly become adjusted without too much interruption.
- Stroll earlier rather than later. When you fall back, you are losing light. And light is what helps set your circadian rhythm. Plus, when cortisol levels spikes, gives you energy, and stops producing melatonin. If you’re not a morning person, then become a dancing person in the morning. Put on some good tunes, and dance the morning away. It’ll wake you up and set your day on the right track.
- Snack less and eat dinner earlier. In the fall and winter months, most of us like to curl up and eat cozy snacks with warm drinks. That can add up to unnecessary extra calories, and some with added sugar. The body doesn’t like any of it, and will most certainly upset your sleeping patterns. So be cautious when you snack and eat dinner. With darkness coming sooner, your body will naturally begin to go into its sleep cycle. So eat a little bit earlier and snack less. Your body will love you for it.
Gaining an extra hour of sleep is wonderful. But be sure to pay attention to how you feel physically, mentally, and emotionally. Give yourself permission to take a nap even this weekend.
This is a great reason to start this new season.
