Wake up at the same time every day, including weekends
The single strongest anchor for the body's sleep clock.
Why it works
The body's circadian clock resets primarily off wake time and morning light exposure, not bedtime. Sleeping in on weekends shifts that anchor by hours, which is functionally the same as jet lag and makes the following Monday harder — a consistent wake time holds the clock steady even if bedtime varies a little.
