As summer approaches, the shift to daylight saving time can disrupt routines and well-being, especially for caregivers and those they care for. Here are key tips to smoothly transition into summer hours:

Gradual Adjustment: Shift daily routines gradually before the time change to ease into the new schedule.

Embrace Natural Light: Maximize exposure to daylight, especially in the morning, to regulate internal clocks.

Maintain Consistent Routines: Stick to regular activities like meals and exercise to anchor the day.

Promote Good Sleep Hygiene: Create a conducive sleep environment and encourage relaxation before bedtime.

Stay Hydrated and Eat Well: Adapt hydration and nutrition habits to match increased activity levels.

Plan for More Outdoor Activities: Take advantage of longer days for outdoor time, which boosts mood and activity levels.

Monitor and Adjust: Keep an eye on adaptation signs and be ready to tweak routines as needed.

Take Care of Yourself: Prioritize self-care to manage the challenges of transitioning to summer hours.

With preparation and flexibility, caregivers can ensure a smooth adjustment for themselves and those they care for, maintaining well-being throughout the summer months.
