Disrupting BioRhythms: Jet lag: Direction of travel why?
Could be because west is phase delay, day length is extended which may be easier to adjust to going to bed late rather than going to sleep earlier

Disrupting BioRhythms: Jet lag: Direction of travel Phase delay?
Phase delay may be easier to adjust to because our circ rhythm is 24 ½ shown by Shiffre so easier to lengthen rather than shorten
