Sometimes I drift from typical wake patterns. Unfortunately, my sleep only seems to move clockwise, otherwise I get headaches and malaise if I try to adjust back. As an extreme but oddly satisfying antidote, I sometimes take a home-based "circadian journey" along the lines of xkcd's comic about Taipei and Honolulu timezone-based housemates, scheduling or dodging meetings accordingly, advancing 1.25 hrs each day or so for a while.
The "journey" allows me to arrange to wake at dawn for a while when daylight is scarce.
I made a little tool. Tell it your last wake time. CJ generates a fresh iCal calendar journey with a sampling of xkcd-esque national time zone flags along the way. You re-add the .ical as a new calendar and erase the calendar or events until it starts to match your real sleep. https://observablehq.com/@thadk/circadian https://observablehq.com/@thadk/circadian
