Clocks go back<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

I dread this weekend all year: the weekend the clocks go back to Greenwich Mean Time. In case you\u2019ve forgotten, time will move back by one hour at 2am on Sunday 27th<\/sup> October. In this way, we \u201crob\u201d an hour of daylight from the morning and add it to the end of the day. The concept has been around since the late 1700s, but it was only introduced in the First World War as a way of saving the nation\u2019s energy.<\/p>\n

It’s been with us ever since and yes – it\u2019s nice to get an extra hour on Sunday, but that\u2019s little consolation for the now rapid descent into winter.<\/p>\n

If, like me, you already struggle with the long hours and weeks of darkness, it\u2019s worth noting the wealth of research that suggests that changing the clocks can have a serious effect on our health. It can knock out the alignment of your body\u2019s natural rhythms and leave you more accident-prone, more vulnerable to lower cognitive performance, mood disruption and other debilitating effects.<\/p>\n

Perhaps the biggest problem is a potential disruption to your sleep pattern. Well-managed sleep hygiene is crucial to general good health and well-being, and The Sleep Charity has published a guide to minimising the disruption:<\/p>\n

How To Minimise Sleep Disruption When Clocks Go Forward – The Sleep Charity<\/a><\/p>\n

Along with your physical health, it\u2019s important that you take special care of your mental wellbeing in winter.\u00a0 Look out for signs of SAD \u2013 seasonal affective disorder.<\/p>\n
