Wolves: When to sleep

Wolves: When to sleep

Go to bed by midnight

- By this time, your body is naturally starting to wind down, and you'll be able to get enough sleep (around 7 hrs) w/out having to sleep in the next day.

- you are typically at your best when you're getting around 7 hrs of sleep. On average wolves get through four 90-minute sleep cycles a night and can take 40 minutes to fall asleep

Since it can take a while for you to quiet your mind and fall asleep, consider a sleep supplement 

If you struggle with grogginess in the morning, hydrate and get some sunlight first thing to keep your biological clock ticking along smoothly.
