This Sunday, the clocks go forward in the UK. When the clocks spring forward by an hour at 1am, we’ll be in British Summer Time (BST), meaning we’ll get lighter evenings and (what feels like) longer days. However, this upcoming clock change also means we’ll lose an hour of sleep.
You might not think losing an hour of sleep will make that much difference, but it can leave you feeling lethargic, irritable and exhausted for up to a few days after the clocks change. Aside from going to sleep an hour earlier and avoiding caffeine too close to bed, I’ve also been looking for ways to use my best smart speaker to help adapt to the new time.
