Long flights, time zones, new beds—travel is great for the soul, but not always for your sleep. Jet lag is real, and if you’ve ever landed in a new city feeling like a zombie, you know exactly what we mean.
But don’t worry, fixing your travel sleep game doesn’t need to be complicated. With a few smart moves (and a good sleep aid like Morning Fresh Sleep), you can wake up refreshed, wherever you are.
😴 First things first: What is jet lag?
Jet lag happens when your body’s internal clock (aka your circadian rhythm) is out of sync with the local time zone. You might be wide awake at 3 AM or falling asleep at lunch—classic jet lag symptoms. It can mess with your energy, digestion, and, of course, your ability to sleep.
🧳 How to sleep better while travelling:
1. Adjust before you fly
Try shifting your sleep schedule by an hour or two towards your destination’s time zone a few days before you travel. It’s a simple trick, but it helps your body transition more easily.
2. Use sunlight to your advantage
Natural light helps reset your internal clock. Try to get outside in the morning if you’ve flown east, or in the late afternoon if you’ve flown west. Bonus: sunshine = serotonin = better mood.
3. Pack a sleep kit
Airplane noise? Hotel curtains that don’t shut? No problem. Pack an eye mask, noise-cancelling earbuds, and a travel-sized sleep aid like Morning Fresh Sleep. It’s made with melatonin, chamomile, and calming herbs, so you can snooze naturally—no sugar, no grogginess, no dependency.
4. Stay hydrated (and skip the plain wine)
Dehydration worsens jet lag. Drink lots of water or sip on something with electrolytes, like coconut water. And as tempting as it is, alcohol can disrupt deep sleep, so it’s best to skip the mini bottles.
5. Create a bedtime ritual
Even on the go, routine matters. Warm shower, dim lights, zero screens. Add a Morning Fresh melatonin sachets into your routine to help signal it’s time to wind down.
6. Don’t stress if your sleep is off
You don’t have to “fix” your jet lag in one night. It can take a day per time zone to adjust. Be kind to your body, nap smart (20–30 mins max), and get back into rhythm slowly.
Whether you're chasing sunsets in Goa or heading out for a work trip in Dubai, jet lag doesn’t have to ruin your sleep. With a little prep and the right support (hello, Morning Fresh Sleep), you can travel smarter, sleep deeper, and enjoy every moment—bright-eyed and jet lag-free.
