我们都想要健康，在应付各种严峻挑战时想要自己处于最佳状态。健康方面的好建议并不少。例如：均衡饮食、睡眠充足以及每周安排一些时间做运动。一门新学科—时间生物学—为我们提供了一个能取得最佳效率的新方法。这个方法就是协调我们的日常活动与自身身体能力。我们将一天中每隔四小时所测得的六个体温读数标记在坐标纸上，让自己熟悉以下信息：我的体温何时开始上升，何时体温升到最高，何时降到最低。然后，我们遵照时间生物学权威人士的指示来规划我们的日常活动。例如，体力要求最高的工作要在我们体温最高时去做。而与之不同的是，像读书和思考这样的脑力脑力劳动就要在体温下降时去做。这样，
我们实际做的事就与我们身体的自然节奏相吻合，我们就能如预期一样表现出最佳状态。
We all want to be healthy, to be at our best when handling tough challenges. There has never been a lack of good advice on health. For example, eat a balanced diet, get enough sleep, and set aside some time every week for exercise. Chronobiology, a new science, has provided us with a new approach to achieving peak efficiency. It is to coordinate our daily activities with our biological capacities. We plot on graph paper six readings of our temperature taken at fourhour intervals throughout a day, and familiarize ourselves with such information as when our body temperature begins to rise, when it reaches its peak/the highest point, and when the bottom/the lowest point appears. Then, we plan our daily activities by following the instructions given by chronobiology authorities. For instance, we tackle the most demanding physical work when our temperature is the highest. By contrast, we pursue mental activities like reading and reflection when our temperature is falling. In this way, what we actually do coincides with our body’s natural rhythms and we achieve our best as predicted.
