In our modern, fast-paced world, it’s common to feel tired and sluggish, especially at the start of a new week. For many, this isn't just the result of a busy weekend or not getting enough sleep. It could be a phenomenon known as social jet lag.
Unlike traditional jet lag caused by traveling across time zones, social jet lag is the mismatch between our body’s natural internal clock (the circadian rhythm) and our social obligations, such as work or school schedules. This can lead to poor sleep quality, fatigue, and even long-term health consequences. In this blog post, we'll dive into what social jet lag is, its impact on our health, and how you can reduce its effects to feel more rested and balanced.
