Are you a Bear, Lion or Wolf?

  • A chronotype is your genetically determined internal clock, which governs when you need to sleep. It’s determined by your PER3 gene and cannot be altered.
  • Your unique chronotype allows you to know your peaks and troughs in your energy levels each day.
  • You unconsciously abide by this “hidden pattern” of daily life, and this plays a huge role in your focus, mood, and performance at work.
