Skin Repair and Circadian Rhythms

The changing of seasons displays how brilliantly nature creates periods of rest and restoration to manage its energy resources. These innate cycles called circadian rhythms are natural processes that respond primarily to light and dark and affect most living things, including humans, animals, plants, and even microbes. One example of a light-related circadian rhythm is sleeping at night and being awake during the day. I can’t help but wonder how we might be able to sync our daily habits and rituals to maximize our own cycles.
