A study found that people who spend a weekend on camping trips usually fall asleep for about two and a half hours earlier than the normal sleep cycle they have at home. The answer to this really weird phenomenon is actually simple! And that is because of technology, which we eliminate when camping out in nature under the starry night sky. 

"Our modern environment has really changed the timing of our internal clocks, but also the timing of when we sleep relative to our clock" —Kenneth Wright

But if you're not an outdoorsy person who shouldn't be bothered for a hike, Wright told The Guardian that there are also solutions that we could do in our daily lives that don't need a long trip out of the city. And that is to always sleep at a reasonable time, get more natural sunlight by walking outside or letting more sunlight in your homes, and to dim the lights at night.  (via refinery29.com)
