\"\"<\/p>\n

As an event business owner, we know what it means to adapt to different time zones.<\/p>\n

Over the past 20 years<\/a>, I have traveled to over 50 countries!<\/p>\n

Sometimes I am in the air more than I am on the ground, like the one time The Industry was releasing the first Economic Impact Study at the Press Club in Washington: I flew from Brussels, landed in Washington in the late afternoon, went straight into a dinner meeting, attended the Press Conference in the morning and finally flew back to Europe.<\/p>\n

I often chuckle when I talk to others who are not business travelers. They get excited when I talk about all of the different countries I have traveled to!<\/p>\n

THEM: \u201cOh, you have been to Lausanne? I looove that city!\u201d<\/p>\n

ME: \u201cYes, it is indeed a beautiful city, the view on the Lake, the mountains in the background, and the skiing close by.\u201d Of course, I don\u2019t mention to them the journey Miami-Frankfurt-Geneva-Lausanne-Meetings-Geneva-Frankfurt-Miami \u2026 all in four days.<\/p>\n

As an independent meeting planner, I am sure you get this a lot too!<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t get me wrong, I do love to travel, but it can have a severe impact on our health and on our productivity.<\/p>\n

Throughout my travels, I am often asked how do I deal with jet lag and what are my secrets!<\/p>\n

Here are my 3 top tips on how I deal with jet lag:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. I consume only water (or Coke Zero!) when airborne. I do not drink juices or alcoholic beverages when flying as I realized over the years that it was impacting my recovery time.<\/li>\n
  2. I use Melatonin if I have at least three time zone differences (I am not a doctor, so please make sure to check with your physician first before taking Melatonin).<\/li>\n
  3. I will take one each night before going to sleep for three nights in a row.<\/span>\n
      \n
    1. If I fly overseas to the East, I take the first one when the flight takes off in the evening and sleep throughout the night.<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. If I return to the US, I try to stay awake as late as possible and take the first one before going to sleep<\/span><\/li>\n
    3. I exercise as soon as possible and start by walking outside in the daylight. I (try to) go to the gym and immediately start my morning routine.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      I have found over the years that the busier I am on my trips, the less time I have to sleep, so I just keep going!<\/span><\/p>\n

      It regularly happens that, as soon as I arrive at the destination, I go straight into meetings. As tiring as it may sound, it is actually the most efficient way to adapt and keep going \u2026 as long as the conversations are not boring!<\/p>\n

      And you, how are you coping with Jet Lag?<\/p>\n

      How do you plan your calendar and activities accordingly?<\/p>\n

      I\u2019m very curious to know and look forward to hearing about your jet lag experiences. I\u2019m always looking for new ideas on how to improve.<\/p>\n
