Daylight savings has kicked my butt. And I am letting her! It’s not just I’m an hour off… for some reason I am experiencing insomnia and I am waking up even later than usual which is amplified by the time change. It’s hard to complain when it was so nice walking into kickboxing yesterday at 7:00 and it not being pitch black out. But I will complain anyway. I can’t sleep and then I can’t wake up! And tomorrow is my early day in which I wake up at 5:30 and I have no idea how that is going to happen. But maybe it’s a good thing. I haven’t been able to will myself out of bed earlier because I have nothing pressing going on. Tomorrow I must wake up! And maybe that will snap me back into a healthy cycle. My fingers are crossed!!!

I’ve always found the way to establish a sleep cycle is to bite the bullet and get up even if you haven’t had enough sleep. I seem to then be tired at bed time as a result. Try a sleep mask, they’re great! I’ve found my body tends to que based on light. Ear plugs can help too. (I just use a down pillow over my eyes and ears.) I always take a sleep mask when I travel. Might be worth a try.
I’m having the same issue. Can’t get to sleep at night, and don’t want to get up in the morning. I slept til almost 10 today.
