Social jet lag is the mismatch between your weekday rhythm and your weekend rhythm.
Your body treats it like a mini time zone shift.

Social sleep apnoea’ might sound like influencer nonsense—but it’s real.
Research shows sleep apnoea often gets worse at the weekend. A few extra drinks, later nights, even a cigarette you wouldn’t normally have…all relax the airway and trigger more breathing pauses. #sleep #alcohol #apnoea #social

When we look at body clocks, we find something really interesting!
Our bodies don’t run to schedule…they run a little bit too long (on average). An extra 10 minutes, if anyone’s counting?
So why aren’t we just sleeping later and later and later?

Did you know that almost every cell in your body has its own clock? But they bow to one…

Have we been pointed to the wrong villain in sleep? Is Blue Light really the main culprit? Or is it something else?
Some great work from Dr Michael Gradisar on this.

It’s easy to think of sleep as being “off” and completely passive. However, we know sleep to be far more DYNAMIC than that. Are we doing more asleep than when awake?
