How to organize the day in according their biorhythms?
Each person lives according to biorhythms, and they differ depending on who we are - "larks", "owls" or "pigeons". The question naturally arises as to whether it is possible to organize a diet and sleep in according their biorhythms?
Typical "larks" are not extreme people with an early rise (at 4-5 o'clock in the morning), and going to bed around 9 o'clock in the evening. These are people who experience the greatest natural burst of energy in the early morning, maintain moderate performance during the day, and get tired in the afternoon - late in the evening. "Larks" don't have much need for energy drinks in the early morning (this is their natural wake-up time), but they do need an extra boost of energy in the evening to keep them up and running. According to their biorhythms, "larks" have early breakfast, early lunch and can do without dinner, as they like to go to bed early.
It is the "larks" who are shown evening jogging and evening sports, as they prolong wakefulness due to a surge of energy after physical exertion. But parties with dense feasts for "larks" are unacceptable, since too short a time between meals and going to bed is not conducive to maintaining a healthy body weight.
Typical "pigeons" are people with a moderate daily routine. They easily get up at 6-8 o'clock in the morning, during the day they experience some decline in strength, and in the afternoon they open a "second wind" - they are full of energy and efficiency again. "Pigeons" have a more regular daily routine associated with eating, and go to bed before midnight, which allows them to have a late dinner. "Pigeons" do not particularly need energy drinks during the day, only at noon they need an additional way to tone up the body, which can be very successfully combined with sports physical activity - for example, go to the gym at lunchtime if you need to keep the body active. Or you can naturally use a midday nap break, which is very good for your overall health.
Typical "owls" - have all the possibilities for evening and night performance. Waking up late and going to bed late allows the owls to work during those hours when other people are “falling down” from fatigue. And the natural habit of the body to stay awake well after midnight allows the "owls" to take night shifts without consequences for the health of the body. Despite the fact that “owls” can hardly endure the early rises typical of the generally accepted daily routines, they are the easiest to rebuild and adapt to the light regimes of the day, to changes in work schedules of the working day, to emergency calls to workplaces at any time of the day.
"Owls" get up early with the support of tonic drinks, they like to spend the morning and the first half of the day with coffee, but the second half of the day and night feel vigorous and highly active. A morning run is just a stimulating moment to start the day for "owls". Most often "owls" ignore breakfasts, but the emphasis in nutrition is on lunches and late dinners, on nightly snacks.
What can a person himself do to change their biorhythms?
- Getting up at dawn is a natural ability of the body, so you should not have thick curtains in the bedroom that do not let in sunlight.
- Human vision is adapted to viewing stationary objects, while the flickering screens of televisions, computers, smartphones, e-books and luminous signs tire the eyes, causing instinctive drowsiness. This significantly reduces activity, which should be considered when planning the daily routine.
- Fatigue is caused not only by excessive physical activity, but also by dehydration, lack of oxygen, excessive consumption of sugars, including alcohol (carbohydrates cause a sharp rise and then a sharp decline in energy). It is necessary to monitor your water balance, to be in the fresh air more often, to be less fond of foods and drinks with a high content of carbohydrates.
- Physical exercise is an energy stimulant, despite the feeling of fatigue after sports activities. Physical activity stimulates appetite, oxygen metabolism and the metabolism of any other substances in the body. For this reason, physical activity can be used in a dosed and planned manner to relieve drowsiness and change your own biorhythm in general.
- If you regularly get up on an alarm clock, you can change your biorhythm, set by nature. The daily shift of the usual modes of getting up and going to bed will teach the body to live according to the biorhythm set by the person himself.
