On November 6th many folks will be shutting off their alarm clocks and rolling over under the covers for an extra hour of shut eye.

At 2 AM on Sunday marks the end of Daylight Saving Time and like most people you'll probably enjoy the extra sleep in time.

Doctor Amy Bender, PhD and Sleep Scientist with the Centre for Sleep and Human Performance, says sleeping in the extra hour may help you in the short term but in order to really benefit you need to get enough sleep consistently every night.

“It'll make you feel better for a few days but you really need to maintain good sleep quantity and quality through out the week and the years.”

It may only take a day or so for a healthy adult to adjust to the change in hours but Bender Says if you have a little one it could longer.

“What we find in children is that it takes them about a week to adjust to this type of change.”

In order to get a good nights rest Bender recommends not drinking caffenated beverages past noon, limiting alcohol consumption and avoiding the use of electronics one hour before bed.
