How to survive the sleep deprivation caused by Daylight Saving Time

The upcoming change to daylight saving time (DST) will make people feel like they’ve lost an hour of sleep.

At 2am this coming Sunday morning, March 12, we are expected to “spring” our clocks one hour “forward.” This synchs our shared schedules to an artificial time reset.
