“People should live in harmony with nature, and the biological clock is the most natural thing within us.” – My grandmother’s words echo in my ears every time I toss and turn at night, trying to fall asleep after all-nighters working on projects. Indeed, the biological clock greatly affects our lives, from eating and sleeping to work efficiency. So how to reset your biological clock when it’s out of sync? Don’t worry, this article will share the most helpful tips.
If you are someone who often has to change your living hours, such as students who have to stay up late studying, or people who work in shifts, you will understand the misery when your biological clock is disrupted. Your body is always in a sluggish, tired state, your mind is less sharp, which significantly affects your studies, work, and even relationships with those around you.
Understand the “Enemy” – What is the Biological Clock?
Before wanting to “conquer” any enemy, we must understand it thoroughly. The biological clock is the same. It’s like an internal clock that regulates the body’s natural rhythms, including the sleep-wake cycle, body temperature, hormones, and many other important functions.
According to Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Van An, a leading expert in sleep in Vietnam, the biological clock is affected by many factors, the most important of which is light. Sunlight during the day helps regulate the biological clock, signaling to the body that it’s time to be active. Conversely, darkness at night stimulates the body to produce melatonin – a hormone that helps you fall asleep.
Effective “Strategies” to Reset Your Biological Clock
Resetting the biological clock is not a one-day task but requires persistence and determination. Here are some “strategies” you can apply:
1. Get Sunlight Every Day
Spend at least 30 minutes each day sunbathing, especially in the morning. Sunlight will help reset your biological clock in the most natural way.
2. Create a Regular Sleep-Wake Schedule
Try to go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, even on weekends. This helps “retrain” your biological clock, helping your body gradually get used to the new rhythm.
3. Healthy Diet
Did you know that eating also affects the biological clock? Eat in moderation and avoid eating too much in the evening. Limit the use of stimulants such as coffee, alcohol, and beer, especially in the evening.
4. Exercise Regularly
Exercise is not only good for your health but also helps regulate the biological clock. However, avoid overtraining, especially in the evening.
Choosing a career that suits your personality can also help you have a reasonable work-rest schedule, thereby maintaining a stable biological clock. You can learn more about choosing a career based on personality.
Spirituality and the Biological Clock
Our ancestors had a saying “Sleep at night, sit during the day,” implying that nighttime is for rest, and daytime is for work. This concept is completely consistent with the body’s natural rhythms and the biological clock. Staying up late regularly is considered to go against the laws of nature, and over time, it will affect your health.
