latelt ive been trying to maximize on my energy levels and this app tells you exactly when you are at peak energy and when you have your afternoon slump (based off your sleep for the week/movement of your phone which is surprisingly accurate). I put blocks on my messages during peak energy to improve focus and then try to exercise or do the stuff I need less brain power for during my slump. It also tells you when your melatonin window is/when your body naturally produces the most melatonin since that is the ideal time to try to sleep… I’m learning that you really just need to plan your day around your energy levels. Starting to accumulate less sleep debt on the daily because of it. Highly recommend
The bright light in your eyes before you go to sleep really fucks with your circadian rhythm.
Also a “bedtime” and wake up time being consistent helps.
The first week of this doesn’t feel like it helps, but keeping to a regular schedule along with the other tips in this thread could make a huge change in your energy levels
ive been using this sleep cycle tracker to wake up earlier and its been working great!!! it makes sure that you dont wake up in the middle of a rem cycle so youre refreshed in the morning. yay!
