Finally, after watching the blood moon, striking in its appearance over a dark farmer’s field nearby, I took another melatonin and went to bed at 10:45 PM, Zurich Time. And now, while it’s still Friday at 8:00 PM in San Francisco, I write this in the deep dark of a warm, dry pre-dawn Saturday morning in Zurich. Gardner MJ, Hubbard KE, Hotta CT, Dodd AN, Webb AA (July 2006). "How plants tell the time". The Biochemical Journal. 397 (1): 15–24. doi: 10.1042/BJ20060484. PMC 1479754. PMID 16761955. It tends to take 12 weeks to really embed a new habit due to the time it takes to change our patterning of our DNA, know as our “epigenetic code” and neural pathways in our brain. If we can sustain changes for this period, and weather the difficult periods (usually around 6-10 week) we stand a much better chance of persisting with changes in the long term. The suggestions described here are viewed as long term lifestyle changes and the hope is you will incorporate them in to your life in the same way people tend to wash their teeth – where these changes become just part of your daily routine. After breakfast, the brain is primed for learning and problem solving in the first half of the day. In the afternoon, we feel healthy if we have accomplished enough work to feel satisfied with our efforts. Without a good night’s sleep, you have an overwhelming feeling that you are wasting the day. As time passes, muscle tone peaks. And as evening comes, body temperature drops, and the production of melatonin (sleep hormone) rises – and the body prepares for sleep. A 2006 study in northern Alaska found that day-living ground squirrels and nocturnal porcupines strictly maintain their circadian rhythms through 82 days and nights of sunshine. The researchers speculate that these two rodents notice that the apparent distance between the sun and the horizon is shortest once a day, and thus have a sufficient signal to entrain (adjust) by.

Studies in fruit flies suggest that these proteins help activate feelings of wakefulness, alertness, and sleepiness. However, signals from the environment also affect circadian rhythms.

As we get older, we naturally revert to waking up early. Post-puberty, females tend to wake up earlier than males, but with time, as the effect of hormones wear off, there is no longer a difference.In 1954, an important experiment reported by Colin Pittendrigh demonstrated that eclosion (the process of pupa turning into adult) in Drosophila pseudoobscura was a circadian behaviour. He demonstrated that while temperature played a vital role in eclosion rhythm, the period of eclosion was delayed but not stopped when temperature was decreased.

PMID 8522148. The light sensors in our eyes have high threshold in morning, meaning they need lots of light to trigger and let the body know it is time to switch on for the day. Therefore exposure to a lot of light is an important activity first things in the morning – with natural light being the easiest way to do this. We however have a lower threshold for light after the sun sets and night falls, meaning we need very little artificial light in the evening to trigger disruption and confusion within our circadian system. It is the blue light contained within artificial light that is the most disruptive and is most commonly found in devices such as mobile phones, computer and TV screens etc as well as in our light bulbs round the house.

My journey here began yesterday, Thursday, on a 2:10 PM flight from San Francisco to Zurich, arriving here at 10:30 AM on Friday, according to Zurich, but not my body. To my body the time was 1:30 AM, and I was tired.
