Most people's sleep issues can be solved by simply prioritizing sleep and making a few changes. Turn off the phone at night, pick a bedtime and stick to it, get more light during the day, eat dinner early (or not at all), stay physically active, don't let the day's anxieties and tasks build up and accumulate and weigh on your mind. Basic stuff. Not easy for everyone to follow, but it's a standard roadmap you know will work if you follow it.  What if your sleep issues are out of your control? What if you're a night shift worker who has to stay awake when you're supposed to sleep and sleep when you're supposed to be awake? You can't just switch jobs—you and your family need food, shelter, and money. There's no easy way to say it: night shift work has no easy solution.  We evolved with a circadian rhythm that hews to the day-night cycle, and staying up at night and maintaining cognitive alertness when we're supposed to be sleeping has longterm ramifications to our health and happiness. That's just a fact. Night shift work has been linked to a number of health issues: Heart disease Diabetes Asthma Breast cancer Obesity It's a tough situation, balancing the physiological demands of a diurnal mammal (you) with the demands of a job in direct opposition to the former. What can a shift worker do, save finding a new career path? Embrace Your Situation For all intents and purposes, this is your life. It may change down the road, but you are a shift worker for now. Accept it. It's not ideal, but it will be a lot worse if you go about your days (er, nights) lamenting your situation. Even just looking in the mirror every day and verbally reminding yourself that "I am a shift worker and I'm going to get through this" will help. Fighting or avoiding the reality of a situation, instead of accepting and working with it, will only heap more stress and cortisol on your shoulders (and more fat on your belly). Much of the link between shift work and obesity can be explained by stress. One study found that among Brazilian shift workers, work-related stress was responsible for the majority of shift work-related obesity. Minimize stressing out about your predicament and you'll mitigate the issue. Be Strict About Your Diet Hew as closely as you can to the Primal eating plan. Don't give in to vending machine wares and stale day-old donuts lurking in greasy pink boxes leftover from the dayshift. Get even more serious about putting quality fuel in your body than ever before. If that means cooking your own food exclusively to avoid gluten and seed oils, so be it. In your circadian misaligned state, your sensitivity to bad food will be heightened. Adhere to a Healthy Lifestyle Eating right and exercising regularly become absolute non-negotiable when you're doing shift work. Studies show that many of the health conditions linked to night shift … Continue reading "How to Manage Shift Work"
