(PRUnderground) November 7th, 2022
Daylight savings is over once again, and that means setting the clock back an hour. Just an hour difference can cause disruptions in sleep, which can lead to both mental and physical challenges.
Fortunately, these challenges tend to be temporary. Kevin Walker, MD. Medical director of Intermountain Healthcare Sleep Disorders Center said there are actually strategies that individuals can use to cope with the time change and the disruptions in sleep schedules.
“Nothing starts your day off better than a good night’s sleep,” said Dr. Walker. “As you transition away from daylight savings time, give these survival strategies a try and help your body adjust to the change.”
Kevin Walker, MD, is a sleep medicine expert with Intermountain Medical Group, practicing at Intermountain Sleep Disorder Centers in Utah.
