I won't gatekeep, Hurkle-Durkle is the sleep hack I'm adopting as mornings get darker – 'it's a great mood booster', say experts

A bedroom with a double bed and side table.

Autumn is rolling in fast, and, if, like me, you're not a fan of the return to darker mornings and cold, wintry nights, then hurkle-durkle is the sleep hack you'll definitely want on your radar.

Why? Because hurkle-durkle isn't just a fun phrase to say out loud. Sleep experts say that this old Scottish term can be a great mood-booster in the gloomier months of the year, potentially making it easier to get out of bed on dark mornings and having a positive impact if you're looking for ways to sleep better.
