Early Sunday morning, at 2 a.m., to be exact, the time changes. It is the end of Daylight Saving Time, so we "fall back" an hour; before you hit the hay, move that hour-hand backward. And although sleep experts believe "falling back" and gaining an hour in autumn is easier than losing an hour in Spring, it will still take your body a few days to acclimate to the time change. Here are a few tips Read more
I don't know about you, but these dark Fall mornings are making it tough for me to climb out of bed.

With daylight saving ending this weekend things should get a bit easier, but I know I've still got a battle ahead of me. I'm pulling out all the stops with these tips and Read more
Working out in the morning is always difficult for me, and even more so with the sun rising an hour later thanks to daylight saving. Due to my mom duties, I cannot take advantage of the extra evening light, so mornings it is.

The hour time shift of daylight saving is regularly touted as an energy saver. For me personally, it feels more like an energy suck. Waking up in the dark this week has been particularly difficult, and trying to get my girls to bed when the sun is still out hasn't been a walk in the park either. I have been relying on a second cup of coffee and admit I have skipped a few morning workouts, but Read more
It's daylight saving time this Sunday, March 8, which means we'll lose an hour that day when we "spring forward." The best way to deal with it is to sleep in on Sunday so you don't disrupt your sleep patterns, then go to bed at your normal bedtime on Sunday night. When you wake up in the morning that Monday, you'll notice it's a lot darker out. So you may want to skip the morning workout and Read more
I don't know about you, but I've been looking forward to changing the clocks for months now, and the time has almost come — this Sunday at 2 a.m. to be exact! Though it's not Summer just yet, the extra hour of light in the evening definitely energizes me and gets me moving after work. Since we've all been cooped up this Winter, I thought you might benefit from these five suggestions on what to Read more
We'll all be losing an hour today because of Daylight Savings when we move our clocks forward an hour. It's always a bonus when we get an extra hour of light, but a downer that we lose one hour of sleep. How do you feel about daylight savings, and are you going to bed earlier tonight? Read more
I've always had a complicated relationship with daylight savings time — especially the springing forward part. While I love that it gives me extra daylight time to spend outdoors at the end of my workday, I absolutely hate how dark and dreary my home is in the morning during those first few weeks after we change the clocks. What about you? Are you unaffected by waking up to a dark house? Or are Read more
Time to change those clocks again — this morning, at 2:00 a.m., daylight saving time began. If you're in the US (with the exception of Hawaii and Arizona), that means you'll move your clocks ahead one hour. And while losing an hour of sleep is never fun, gaining an extra hour of light at the end of the day is a welcome change. Here, five ways to help your kids adjust to daylight saving tTime Read more
