Body Clock

Sometimes it will be the middle of the night and I’ll feel wide awake. While sometimes anxiety can make me feel that way, odds are that my body clock is all out of wack and doesn’t really recognize when it’s time to power down. Ways to fix this? Going to bed and waking up at the same time every day is a good start. Regardless of whether or not you fell asleep right after you go to bed (I don’t), letting your body know that ‘now’ is the time to rest goes a long way toward establishing a habit. Another way to help regulate your body clock is eating – having meals and snacks at the same time every day. Establishing patterns means that when that pattern gets you to bedtime, your body will understand that at least it’s time to sleep.
