Chronotype
Chronotype refers to an individual's natural preference for specific times of day for sleep and activity. It is influenced by biological and environmental factors, leading some people to feel more alert and productive in the morning (morning types), while others peak in the evening (evening types). This internal clock affects daily routines, work performance, and overall well-being. Understanding one's chronotype can help optimize schedules for better sleep and productivity, aligning activities with natural body rhythms.
