Why This Plan Works

Direction Matters: Westward travel is easier because you're trying to stay awake longer, which aligns better with natural tendencies. Recovery is typically faster.

Light is Key: Properly timed light exposure is the most powerful tool for resetting your circadian rhythm. Morning light advances your clock, while evening light delays it.

Recovery Timeline: With a 12-hour time difference, expect approximately 7 days to fully adjust to the new timezone if you follow the recommended light exposure and sleep schedule.
