Working a night shift is definitely a challenge. Aside from getting to bed by 10 PM, I think everything else in the article still applies, especially sleeping in complete darkness and maintaining a consistent sleep schedule.

Since you may be sleeping a lot during the day, it’s important to block the daylight from entering your room. Likewise, to help you stay awake during the night, using full spectrum light bulbs might be beneficial.

While it may not be practical to maintain your workday schedule on a day off, the more frequently your routine varies, the more difficult it will probably be to sleep in general. The more consistent you can keep your schedule, the better.

This is probably advice you’ve already heard, but unfortunately, I don’t have any better ideas to offer. It’s very likely that the body can detect the difference between day and night, possibly through changes in the earth’s natural electromagnetic field as well as the obvious variations in sunlight. Going against the body’s natural preference to sleep during the night is not an easy disruption to overcome. If possible, perhaps it would be better to find a way to return to a normal schedule.
