Jet lag is often seen as a sleep problem. But hydration and electrolyte balance play a fundamental role in circadian alignment, recovery, and adaptation to new time zones. This article explores the science and shares practical hydration protocols for travel.

In-room workouts may look like a convenient wellness solution, but science shows they fail both recovery and performance. Hotel rooms are designed for rest, not training, and this mismatch exposes a much bigger opportunity for hospitality.

Sleep isn’t just about duration. Emerging research shows that earlier, consistent sleep timing is critical for next-day energy, movement, and focus. In this article, Phil Learney explores the science of circadian alignment, its impact on performance, and what it means for athletes, professionals, and everyday health.

Sleep tourism is transforming how we travel. No longer about indulgence or adventure alone, the new luxury is restoration. This article explores the science, industry shifts, and practical applications behind the rise of sleep-focused travel, and what it means for performance, hospitality, and everyday wellbeing.

Social jet lag is the hidden disruptor of modern life. Mimicking the effects of travel across time zones, it erodes energy, focus, and recovery week after week. This post explains the science behind social jet lag, why it matters for health and performance, and how simple circadian strategies can help realign your body clock.

Alcohol is often seen as a sleep aid, but the science tells a different story. Even small amounts disrupt sleep cycles, impair recovery, and create a caffeine–alcohol cycle that erodes energy and wellbeing. This article explores the sedative illusion, the quantifiable decline in sleep quality, and how hospitality and wellness are redefining rituals of relaxation.

Hospitality has always been anchored by tradition, with coffee and alcohol at its core. But shifting generational demands are reshaping the landscape. Wellness-conscious consumers now seek balance, quality, and alternatives. The future belongs to operators who protect heritage while embracing innovation.

Poor office lighting is more than an inconvenience, it disrupts circadian rhythms, drives fatigue, and fuels reliance on caffeine and alcohol. This article explores the science behind lighting, mood, and performance, and how circadian-aligned design can restore balance in the workplace.

Optimising dopaminergic tone without succumbing to burnout is one of the pivotal challenges in contemporary performance and wellness. In today’s culture of quick fixes, excessive caffeine consumption, overstimulating activities, and “always on” behaviours often dominate strategies for focus and motivation.

Discover the science behind sleep temperature and mattress selection. Learn how airflow, materials, and new technologies influence thermoregulation, deep sleep, and recovery.

Most people think poor sleep comes from the glass of wine they had before bed.

But the truth is, that glass is usually just the final act in a much longer story, one that started the moment your alarm went off.

Modern neuroscience confirms what ancient traditions have practised for millennia: the first few minutes after you wake up are biologically powerful.

Your brain doesn’t flick on like a light switch. It transitions, slowly and delicately, through a cascade of brainwave states.
