Understanding Circadian Rhythm and Sleep Hygiene

Consistency in waking up time is crucial to strengthen the circadian rhythm, with minor variations of no more than an hour. Exposure to sunlight, ideally within the first hour after waking, and moderate exercise in the morning actively reinforce the circadian rhythm. Following a consistent schedule and good sleep preparation practices significantly contribute to improved sleep quality.
