It is necessary to adjust the sleeping time and waking time as usual, avoid late-night snacks, and stabilize the sleeping environment. It is also helpful to get some time in the sun in the morning. It is also beneficial to maintain daily sleep and eating habits on the last day of the holiday. In addition, it is important to increase physical activity through light exercise or walking, and to restore the balance of the body through sufficient water intake and nutritional supplementation.
Professor Cho Cheol-hyun said, `There are people who try to sleep too much to relieve their fatigue after the holidays, but this can have a greater adverse effect"If possible during the holidays, maintaining a regular sleep-arousal pattern is important to prevent and overcome holiday syndrome " he stressed.
