What is the best way to wake up early without feeling tired in the morning.?
Get into a routine of the time you go to bed and the time you wake up. These should be consistent, even on weekends. Make sure you’re getting between 7-8 hours of sleep! In addition, I bought this great alarm clock that turns a light on low and gradually increases brightness 30 minutes before I wake. At 15 minutes before the alarm goes off soft nature sounds begin to play (I usually choose the ocean sound or the rain). It wakes me up gently and I’m usually awake and ready to get get up before the alarm goes off! In addition to this, sometimes before I actually get up, I’ll stretch my arms out, or pull my legs up to stretch my back or hamstrings – very gentle stretching just to get the blood moving, not to try for flexibility. I also don’t eat or drink alcohol after 7:00 pm as this can disrupt sleep. And I’m careful about caffeine intake in the afternoon/evening hours. Disrupted sleep can leave you feeling tired the next morning now matter how much time you have to sleep in bed!
