Detailed Answer:

Hi,

To adjust your sleep schedule to a more normal timing, try gradually shifting your bedtime and wake-up time earlier by about 15-30 minutes each day. This will help your body adjust more smoothly. Also, create a relaxing bedtime routine, avoid mobile / TV before bed, and ensure your sleeping environment is comfortable and dark. Consistency is key to resetting your internal clock.

Also, you can use medicine Melatonin, at bed time to help this process faster, to set your sleep cycle.

I hope your query is clear now. Thank you.

Regards
