Course Overview
Have you ever felt sleepy or sluggish after lunch? Do you feel most alert and productive at a certain time every day? Everyone has natural rhythms that impact how much energy they have throughout each 24-hour period. You may have heard of your circadian rhythm as it relates to sleep, but this rhythm is present throughout your entire day — even when you are awake! This course will help you understand what energy cycles are, how they can work for you, and how to schedule your time in ways that will work with your body’s natural ebb and flow.
