Reducing Circadian Instability

When you lack sleep, not only does your circadian rhythm go out of sync but it also further exacerbates difficulties with attention span, mood swings, and changes in memory.

Here are some things you can do to reduce your circadian instability:

1. Minimize the number of your night shifts
2. Have the same sleep-wake schedule whether you're at home or during the workdays
3. Get some sunlight after waking up to cue in your biological clock and raise alertness levels.
