April 20, 2021 Lisa Czachowski

Sleep is an important function in everyone’s life and while it might be tempting to cram as many activities as possible on vacation, you should take time to relax. When planning your vacation, focus on going to a coupe must-see locations a day and giving yourself time to breathe for the additional free time you have. When you don’t have to run around from 6am-11pm you’ll find vacations much more enjoyable.

Like you would at home, follow a sleep schedule so you’re not exhausted the entire vacation. In fact, vacations are a perfect time to adjust your regular sleep schedule as there are no distractions or pressing deadlines you need to worry about. Focus on readjusting your internal clock and use the vacation to figure out how much sleep you need and your perfect bedtime. From there, just sit back and relax!

Ultimately, the best time to sleep and wake up depends on you. If your work starts at 9 am and you need two hours to eat, get ready, and travel to work, then you’ll need to wake up at 7 am. From there, you can figure out what time you should go to bed based on your needs. Maybe you’re okay with less than 7 hours of sleep or maybe you need more. Everything is customizable based on your requirements. The hardest part is sticking to a consistent schedule and not straying from it. That means no more staying up until 2 am and sleeping in on the weekends.

While everyone’s sleep schedule will vary, if you are struggling to fall or stay asleep throughout the night, you should see your doctor. There may be an underlying cause such as sleep apnea or other health issues. If you are taking medication, you should check to see if the side effects include trouble sleeping and then ask your doctor if there’s another option.
