Temperature Minimum
- A person’s temperature minimum refers to the lowest point in their 24-hour body temperature cycle, occurring ~90 minutes before average wake time. By shifting behaviors around your temperature minimum, you can advance or delay your circadian clock.
- Viewing bright light, exercising, and eating in the 4 hours after your temperature minimum will advance your clock. The opposite in the 4 hours before your minimum will delay your clock.
- Knowing your temperature minimum allows you to combat jet lag by pre-adjusting your schedule before travel and continuing to shift it at your destination.
