How to timeshift
The timing of light exposure and light avoidance is key
Light is the most important time cue for shifting your circadian clock, so try your best to follow the light exposure and light avoidance advice.
1
You can avoid light anywhere
When Timeshifter suggests avoiding light but you’re outside in the sun or in a brightly lit space, simply wear dark sunglasses.
2
You can get exposed to light anywhere
When Timeshifter suggests you see light when you’re in a dark space, simply turn on any available lights and maximize the brightness on any screen you’re using.
3
If you can’t sleep, just stay in the dark
When Timeshifter suggests going to sleep, try to sleep for the full duration. If you are not asleep for the whole time, simply wear a sleep mask or dark sunglasses to stay in the dark.
4
Follow the advice as much as possible
You don’t have to follow every advice perfectly, but the closer you stick to the plan, the greater the benefits.
