Default We change clocks one hour ahead this weekend

Hi,
In the US, we change clocks forward Sunday morning, March 14, from 2:00 am to 3:00 am.

We loose an hour of sleep Saturday night.
We will have less light in the morning and more light in the evening until we change again.

Default Health Solutions to Swing to Daylight Saving Time

http://www.timeanddate.com/time/dayl...ng-health.html

Quote:
Exercise in form of a brisk walk or run can help people adjust to the advanced clocks. Biologist David Glass of Kent State University (cited in ABC News) suggests that a brisk walk or run stimulates the serotonin release in the brain and other types of neurotransmitters that will phase-advance the clock.

Another suggestion is to gain exposure to bright natural light for an hour or two. According to Harvard University Gazette, people can adjust their daily rhythms by sitting in front of "light boxes", which are banks of fluorescent bulbs that emit two to three times more light than found in a typical room at home. This type of light is bright white light.

Dear Barbara,

I'm having a quiet day.
A Pilates DVD and then a run to the grocery store.

What is happening for your weekend?

Mari, I'm having a quiet evening also. Cocky and I will likely go out tomorrow somewhere. I don't know where yet though as I haven't talked to him yet today.

I reminded Derrick earlier before he went to bed. But luckily his alarm clock
will set itself.

I need to head to bed soon.
