Daylight Saving Time begins Sunday morning. Before we “Spring ahead,” it’s worth considering the science behind the time change.
SDPB’s Lori Walsh reached out to science journalist Lynne Peeples to learn about circadian science. Peeples wrote the book “The Inner Clock: Living in Sync with our Circadian Rhythms.»
Peeples says one of the best ways to reset your circadian rhythm is to seek the morning light on a daily basis, even when it’s cloudy. That can be incrementally more of a challenge the further you live from the sunrise. But the subtle differences can show up in health outcomes, making syncing with sunshine even more important.
Peeples says humans don’t have just one inner clock. Our bodies host a symphony of synchronicities.
