3 Questions... | about daylight saving time | Daylight saving time begins this weekend. Erin Donnelly, our resident health editor, explains how to keep the shift from ruining your sleep schedule. |
|
| | Do we lose or gain an hour of sleep this weekend? |
|
| Lose, unfortunately. Clocks will “spring forward” at 2 a.m. on Sunday, meaning it’ll suddenly become 3 a.m. |
| |
| | How does DST affect health, and why? |
|
| One professor told us that “America is sleep-deprived to begin with, so losing that hour disrupts the length and quality of rest.” |
| |
| | What’s the one big thing I can do to wake up and not feel tired next week? |
|
| Gradually move your bedtime up. Try going to sleep 15-20 minutes earlier starting tonight. All of this can help if you have kids, too. |
