<\/span><\/h2>\nThe most natural way to retrain your body, though, is to bathe it in sunlight.<\/p>\n
This is good news if you\u2019ve traveled somewhere hot for a relaxing holiday, but not so good if your journey eastwards has deposited you back in your gloomy hometown with a day in the office ahead of you.<\/p>\n
Still, you can think about switching out those light bulbs for daylight LEDS, or \u2013 if this kind of travel is frequent for you \u2013 trick your body\u2019s light receptors at source by investing in a pair of Re-Timer glasses whose soft green light has been academically proven to help regulate sleep patterns.<\/p>\n
Once you\u2019re actually in bed (after dark, of course) you can use traditional methods to try and get as close to that solid eight hours as possible \u2013 use an eye mask and earplugs to block out potential disturbances, and also consider packing an unwashed pillow case from home.<\/p>\n
Used on a hotel pillow, the scent of home can subconsciously influence your body\u2019s defensive mechanisms into feeling safer, and thus achieving a deeper sleep.<\/p>\n
These solutions can give you a good, balanced start in your fight back against the tyranny of jet lag.<\/p>\n
Of course, you can try to pump yourself up with pharmaceuticals and coffee, but it\u2019s not going to be kind to your system in the long run.<\/p>\n
Researchers even discovered that hamsters who were administered after long flights had their jet lag reduced, although with predictable side-effects (it is not noted whether the rodents took advantage of the improved circulation to their nether regions once they checked into the their tiny hamster hotels).<\/p>\n
But while that may be an appealing remedy for randy pets, you can be a lot kinder to your system in the long run by aligning your behavior with the broader machinations of the natural world.<\/p>\n
