We're falling back soon! Is your body ready for the time change?

Daylight Saving Time ends on Sunday, November 1st, and while gaining an extra hour of sleep sounds great, the time change can still throw off your body's internal clock, affecting your sleep, energy and daily routine.

Here are a few simple tips to help you adjust:

🌙 Create a relaxing bedtime routine: Give yourself time to unwind so your body knows it's time to rest.

📱 Limit screen time before bed: Put away electronic devices at least 30 minutes before bedtime to help your body wind down.

😴 Stick to your sleep schedule: Try to keep your bedtime and wake-up time consistent, even on weekends.

Don't wait until the clocks change to start preparing! Small adjustments now can help make the transition a little smoother.

💚Save these tips for later and share this post with someone who could use a little help adjusting to the time change!

A reunion 17 years in the making

This week, an already monumental event turned into an even more extraordinary full-circle moment.

Medal of Honor recipient and U.S. Army veteran Ty Carter reunited with one of our Medical Assistant's and fellow military veteran for the first time in 17 years.

Their connection goes far beyond this photo; our team member was part of the evacuation team that helped Ty and his fellow soldiers following the Battle of Kamdesh at Combat Outpost Keating in Afghanistan.

The battle would later become the subject of the 2020 film The Outpost (an adaptation of the 2012 nonfiction book The Outpost: An Untold Story of American Valor by CNN journalist Jake Tapper), where Ty’s story and extraordinary acts of courage were portrayed on screen.

Now, 17 years later, their paths crossed again—this time in the IEP Medical Suite during the Congressional Medal of Honor Convention in Detroit.

For these two veterans, it was a reunion nearly two decades in the making. For those of us fortunate enough to witness it, it was a powerful reminder of the bonds formed through service, sacrifice and experiences that are never forgotten.

17 years later. Two veterans. One unforgettable reunion.
