Jet lag.

You're exhausted at the wrong times of day, your sleep is fragmented, and your body feels out of sync with the clock around you. It happens when rapid travel across time zones disrupts your circadian rhythm, the internal clock that regulates sleep, hunger, and alertness.

An advisory note

Remedae is a library, not a clinic. Speak with a credentialed practitioner.

If something hurts, lingers, or changes, please reach a trained practitioner in the tradition of your choice. Nothing here is a diagnosis. We'll connect you with one inside Remedae soon.
