– Jet lag has to do with your body clock being used to the light/dark cycles of your home time zone.
– Better take a day flight and have a nap after you land – you'll have more strength to combat jet lag. – If you fly south to north or the other way (meaning you stay in the same time zone), jet lag won't be an issue. – Regular flyers know for sure that it takes much longer to recover after traveling east than when you're heading west. – When you fly westward across several time zones, you'll automatically make your day longer because it'll be earlier at your destination than at home. – Flying eastward will shorten your day because when you arrive, it'll be later than in the time zone you left. – If you travel across 3 time zones heading westward, you'll be totally fine in 3 days or so. – By the way, some people deal with jet lag better than others – all thanks to their natural brain cell cycle.
– Get a good rest and plenty of sleep before your trip. Pre-flight stress and late-night packing will wear you down and make your jet lag worse.
– Try to move as much as you can before and during your flight. Staying in one place for a long time will make your shoulders, hips, and back feel tight. – Drink lots of water. Proper hydration will help your body adapt to a new time zone faster.
– Adjust the temperature in your room so that it's a bit on the cool side. It'll help you fall asleep faster and have better sleep quality. – If you follow a totally different schedule on your weekdays and on the weekend. Then your internal clock can also fall out of sync. This phenomenon even has its own name – "social jet lag"! Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz
