Track Your Wake Time to Estimate Temperature Minimum
Estimate your circadian temperature minimum by using your average natural wake time as the anchor and subtracting about 90 minutes to 2 hours. A practical way to do this is to track wake times for several days, average them, and then use that estimated temperature minimum as a reference point for timing circadian shifts and other light-based interventions.

“The first thing I do after I wake up is I take the pen that's on my nightstand and the pad of paper on my nightstand and I write down the time in which I woke up. The reason for writing down what time I wake up is because I want to know what's called my temperature minimum.”
