Night Owls vs. Early Birds
Our chronotype determines whether we’re early birds or night owls. Our chronotype is how our body reacts to the time of day. There are typically three chronotypes: morning, day, and night.
- Morning people are the early birds. They are awake, operate at peak efficiency in the morning, but usually can’t stay up for the late news.
- Day people sleep a little later and are most effective in the afternoon.
- Night owls sleep as late as possible and are up well past nightfall, into the wee hours of the morning.
