As a global entrepreneur constantly on the move, I understand the impact that frequent travel can have on both the body and mind. Jet lag, an unwelcome companion for many, often disrupts our ability to perform at our best.
Jet lag is a common challenge for entrepreneurs dealing with international business commitments. The abrupt change in time zones can lead to fatigue, sleep disturbances, and an overall sense of disorientation.
Recognising the impact of jet lag is the first step in mitigating its effects. Over the years, I’ve developed personal strategies to help minimise the effects of jet lag. These include hydration, strategic sleep planning, and adapting to the destination’s time zone during the flight.
Staying hydrated is crucial during the flight to combat dehydration caused by the cabin environment. Adapting to the local time even before reaching the destination allows you to gradually adjust your sleep routine. Exposure to natural light at the destination can also help synchronise your biological clock with the new time zone.
Each person responds differently to jet lag, which is why having a customised kit is valuable. Consider including eye masks and earplugs to create a serene environment during the flight, healthy snacks to stay nourished throughout the journey, and favourite items to help establish a relaxing routine, such as lavender oil.
While there’s no one-size-fits-all solution for jet lag, adjusting your travel practices can make a significant difference. Test different approaches and discover what works best for you. By consistently applying these strategies, you’ll be better prepared to face the challenges of frequent travel.
