Jet Lag Is a Mindset: Rewriting Travel Routine Rules
Jet lag isn’t just physical—it’s psychological. High performers rewire the way they think about movement. Your body follows the rhythm you set. Here’s how to land energized every time.
1. Hydrate Before You Fly
Skip the pre-flight cocktail. Double your water intake the day before flying. Electrolytes over espresso.
2. Use Light as Your Anchor
Adjust to your destination’s time zone by syncing with natural light. Step outside as soon as you land.
3. Stretch, Don’t Sit
Even a 5-minute mobility circuit on layovers resets your spine and circulation. Airports are gyms with bad lighting.
4. Routines Are Rituals
Wake, move, reflect. Even on the go, morning routines ground you. Don’t underestimate the power of repetition—even in new cities.
