Kungenzeka ukuba eyona ndlela yokulwa ne-jet lag yeyokuqala: thatha ipilisi yokulala, wolule kwisitulo esine-flat-class-class seat, kwaye ulale ngaphambi kokuba inqwelomoya ifike phezulu. Andizange ndikwazi ukwenza nayiphi na kwezo zinto. Endaweni yoko, ndiye ndisebenzise ngokungakhathali nayiphi na iwayini okanye utywala endibufumanayo, ndibambe iyure enye okanye ezimbini zokulala, kunye nokulala okungagungqiyo, ndize ndihamba-hambe ngemini elandelayo ndide ndife. Ayimangalisi ke into yokuba ndingumntu onamava ngejet lag. Ndiyifumana kakhulu.

Ngethamsanqa, kukho izinto ezininzi ezithengiswa ekhawuntarini ezibanga ukuba, P.T.Barnum- isitayile, ukunciphisa iziphumo zejet lag, ukuba ayinyangeki kwaphela-ezinye zazo zipapashwa ngokufanelekileyo epokothweni SkyMall ikhathalogu. Ndiqokelele amayeza kunye nezixhobo ezisibhozo-ukusukela kwioyile yamayeza ukuya kwiipaneli zokukhanya zonyango - kwaye ndabhabha ukusuka eNew York ukuya eTokyo ndabuya kwakhona ukuzovavanya.

Ukucaca, olu vavanyo lwalungeyonzululwazi. Yayingengomfama-mbini, okanye kwa-phakathi ngokungqongqo. Nangona kunjalo, ndenze konke okusemandleni am ukuyila indlela ehambelanayo. Ndiza kuvavanya amayeza e-homeopathic kunye nokuphumla okujolise kumlenze omnye wohambo kunye nokunyanga ngakumbi kwezobuchwephesha kwelinye icala, kwaye ndiqiniseke ukuba ndihlala ndonwabile kwaye ndinamanzi kangangoko zombini iindlela. Ukuze ndilinganise ukuba ngaba iimveliso ziyasebenza na, ndiza kugcina umkhondo xa ndivuka yonke imihla, xa ndiqala ukuziva ndidiniwe, ndilele ixesha elingakanani, ixesha losuku ndiqale ngalo ukuziva ndingenanto, njalo njalo.

I-jet lag yenzeka xa iwotshi yakho yangaphakathi ejikelezayo-icandelo lobuchopho bakho elilawula imijikelo yakho yokulala-iphazanyiswa kukuhamba. Imvakalelo inokunyuka ngoxinzelelo kunye nokungazinzi. Iimveliso ezininzi zibanga ukuba ziyakuphumla, ke oko kukhuthaza ukulala noxolo, kwaye ndizivavanyile ngeli xesha ndijikeleza indlela eya kuMantla ePole ndisiya eTokyo.

Iipilisi ze-No-Jet-Lag, iyeza lasekhaya kubantu abafanayo abakulethele i-No-Shift-Lag (yabasebenzi abasebenza ebusuku) kunye ne-Drink Ease (ngezo zihlandlo apho umbhiyozo ungakhokelela kwisiphumo esibuhlungu emva kwemiphumo), kufanelekile ukunceda umzimba ukuba uphinde uchache kubunzima bohambo olude. Abasebenzisi bahlafuna amacwecwe amancinci angenancasa enziwe ngengwe yengwe kunye nezinye izicatshulwa zezityalo ekundulukeni nasekufikeni, kunye neeyure ezimbini xa babhabha. Ndiyenzile ngokunyaniseka lonke ixesha lohambo, ngaphandle kwesiphumo.

Kwicala lokuhamba ngenqwelomoya, ndathambisa iitempile kunye nentamo yam kwiBadger Salm Balm, imveliso engamakhambi, efana neVaselina ethi ikhuthaza ukozela. (Yisebenzise rhoqo kwaye ulindele iziphumo, i-tin ithembisa.) Ukunuka njengekomityi yomntu yeti yelemon verbena, emva koko ndanxiba imaski yeGlo eSokulala, ekhupha ukukhanya okuluhlaza okuluhlaza xa kuvuliwe. Ngokwethiyori, ezi zibane ziluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka zimele ukuba neziphumo zokuthomalalisa. Ngokwenyani, kwakungathi ndijonge ngaphakathi kumatshini we-MRI.

Nangona ndingakhange ndiyifumane i-Glo to Sleep mask ingakumbi yokuphumla, ndiye ndaya eTokyo phakathi emva kwemini, ndiziva ngathi ndintsha njengokuziva kunyamezele ukungalali iiyure ezili-14, kwaye ndinethemba lokuba izithintelo uhlobo oluthile lwesiphumo. Okwangoku, emva kweeyure ezine, ndazibona ndibhadula evenkileni kangangemizuzu engama-45, ndothukile kwaye ndingadibani, ndisoyika ukungazazi iitshokholethi ezingaqhelekanga. Ndavuka ngosuku olulandelayo ngo-4: 30 kusasa kwaye ndarekhoda ukuqala kwe-jet lag nge-1.

Le mvakalelo ye-asynchronous idiocy yaqhubeka kulo lonke ixesha lokuhlala kwam kweentsuku ezine, ngaphandle kwemizamo yam yokubuyela kwimeko yesiqhelo. Ndithambise ngokufanelekileyo ibhalsam yokulala busuku ngabunye ndaza ndalala kunye neGlo ukulala phezu kwamehlo am kunye nomatshini weSandi Oasis ngasemva, iwotshi ephathekayo yewotshi / isixhobo esimhlophe esinengxolo ekhethekileyo yokubeka i-jet-eyile, ngokokwazi kwam, umxube wazo zonke ezinye izandi ezikwibhanki yememori yomatshini. (Kwavakala into enje ngehlokondiba elinomsindo, elikude, kodwa liphethe ii-chimes zomoya endaweni yeetotshi.)

Nangona kunjalo ukulala / ukuvuka kwamjikelezo kuthatha ixesha elide ukulungelelanisa njengoko kungenjalo. Kwakukubusuku bam besine kuphela eTokyo endazifumanayo ndikwazi ukuhlala ndiphaphile ngentsimbi yesi-9. Akufanele ndimangaliswe kukuba iimveliso ze-homeopathic-ezinkulu kwizithembiso kodwa zifutshane kwisayensi-zazingasebenzi. NgokukaGqirha Jamie Zeitzer, unjingalwazi oncedisayo kwizifundo zengqondo kunye nokuziphatha kwiDyunivesithi yaseStanford kunye nengcali ngokulala, ngelixa zisenokubakho zonke iintlobo zonyango iimpawu I-jet lag, ukubonakaliswa kukukhanya kuphela kwento echaphazela ukungangqinelani.

Xa useluhambeni, iwotshi yakho ejikeleza usete ngokuthe ngcembe, kwisithuba seentsuku, emva kokuvezwa ixesha elide kukukhanya kwendalo. Kukho iimveliso ezininzi ezithi zikhawuleze inkqubo yokuseta kwakhona, kwaye ndizivavanye kumlenze wokubuya wohambo lwam. Umzekelo, iValkee Bright Light Headset, yinto encinci, enomtsalane eFinland eyenza ukukhanya okuqaqambileyo kwingqondo yakho ngokusebenzisa iibhalbhu ezincinci ezifakwe kwibala leendlebe. Nangona inzululwazi engemva kweValkee ingacacanga-inye, akucaci nokuba izilwanyana zinokukuqonda na ukukhanya ngendlebe-le nkampani ibanga impumelelo ekunyangeni ukungahambi kakuhle kwamaxesha eFinland.

Ngokukhawuleza nje ukuba ndiyazi ukuba kuyasa eNew York, ndadubula iValkee ukuze ndiqhushumbise ii-neurons zam ngokukhanya okunesondlo. Unyango luthatha imizuzu eyi-12; Ngelixa kuqhubeka, imijelo yakho yendlebe iziva ixhunyiwe, kwaye ishushu kancinci, kodwa kuphelele apho. Ndiqhubekile ndayisebenzisa ukufika emhlabeni eNew York, ndaphinda ndaphindaphinda kabini kunyango olukhanyayo kunye nephaneli yezibane zasemantla, ibhodi yokukhanya yesayizi yelaptop ehlamba amehlo omsebenzisi ngokuqaqamba okungapheliyo, kwaye yenzelwe ukuba isetyenziselwe Imizuzu engama-30 ukuya kwiyure ngexesha. Ndibeke ibhodi unyawo olusuka entlokweni yam ndayijonga ngokuthembekileyo ngeentsasa ezintathu zilandelelana emva kokubuya kwam. Oku kunokuba yinto engaphaya kwamandla: nangona kundithathe iintsuku ezine ukuphola kwi-jet lag eTokyo, xa ndibuyela eNew York ndibuyile kwesiqhelo kwiiyure ezingama-36.

Ngaba le mpumelelo ibangelwe lonyango lwepaneli ekhanyayo, okanye iValkee? Okanye ngaba kungenxa yokuba i-jet lag kufanele ukuba ibe nzima kakhulu xa usiya empuma uye entshona; okanye ngenxa yempembelelo ye-placebo? Iziphumo zophononongo lwam lomntu omnye bezingacacanga, kodwa zandishiya nomgaqo omtsha wokulwa ne-jet-lag olandelwayo: hlala uhlaziyekile kwaye ukhululeke kubhabho; thintela utywala benqwelomoya, nokuba busimahla; fumana ubuthongo obuhle ebusuku ngaphambi kokuhamba; kwaye uchithe ixesha elininzi kangangoko kunokwenzeka kwilanga lasekuseni (okanye, mhlawumbi, ngepaneli yezibane zasemaNtla) xa ufika.

Ndizama ukutya ukukhanya xa ndihamba, kwaye xa ndifika kwindawo endiya kuyo, nokuba yeyiphi na iyure, ndiyasebenza kwaye ndiyabila. Ndifumanisa ukuba umthambo unika inkqubo yam ioksijini yomoya. Ngengcebiso yomyeni wam, ugqirha wentliziyo, ndikwanxiba iisokisi zokucinezelwa kwiinqwelomoya ezinde. Iphucula ukujikeleza, kwaye xa ndifika emhlabeni, ndikulungele ukubetha umhlaba.

Ndihamba malunga nesiqingatha sonyaka kwaye ndiyakwazi ukuziva ndiphilile. Amanzi okusela ngundoqo. Khetha inqwelomoya ngenqwelomoya. Inkqubo yokukhanyisa yenqwelomoya inokunceda ukunciphisa i-jet lag ngokutshintsha isibane sekhabhathi esekwe kukukhanya kwangaphandle, kwaye ngokuthe ngcembe ikuvuse kwiinqwelomoya ezinamehlo abomvu.

Ukukhanya kokukhanya kuseta iwotshi: xa ukwindawo oya kuyo, zibonakalise ekukhanyeni kwendalo kangangoko ngexesha lasemini. Kwelinye icala, ukuba uvuka ezinzulwini zobusuku, gcina kumnyama ngangoko kunokwenzeka.

Ndikholelwa kakhulu engqondweni malunga nomcimbi; nje ukuba ndifike kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya, ndilungelelanisa iwotshi yam nexesha lendawo endiya kuyo. Ndisebenzisa indiza ukuzama ukufumana umzimba wam kweso shedyuli.

Ijogu yindlela entle yokubetha i-jet lag kunye nendlela entle yokubona isixeko ofike kuso. Ndihlala ndiziva ndipompiwe kwaye ndikulungele ukuya kuyo emva koko.
