Why Timezone Sleep Adjustment Matters
When traveling or working across time zones, maintaining good sleep becomes challenging. Your circadian rhythm is synchronized to your home timezone, but local environmental cues (light, meal times, social activities) follow a different schedule. This mismatch can lead to poor sleep quality, reduced performance, and health issues.
Common Timezone Challenges

International Travel
Crossing multiple time zones disrupts your circadian rhythm, leading to jet lag

Remote Work
Working with international teams requires meetings at odd hours
🌙
Shift Work
Rotating shifts create timezone changes without physical travel
