Train Yourself To Wake Up On Time In Morning

Some morning people open their eyes after a restful night’s sleep ready to start their day. However, many individuals struggle to feel alert in the morning and, as a result, find it challenging to prepare for work, school, or other responsibilities.

Chances are you’re not getting enough sleep and need to tweak your bedtime routine. If a sleep disorder or other underlying condition is to blame for your morning sleepiness, there are treatments available.

We’ll cover all of that and more here so you can become one of those perky morning people.

Get on a sleep schedule

Going to bed and waking up at the same time every day is a must if you want to get on a good sleep schedule and train yourself to wake up early.

Figure out how much sleep you need — seven to nine hours per night is recommended — and aim to get to bed early enough so you wake up feeling refreshed.

Stick to your sleep schedule every day, including your days off, and your body will eventually begin waking up naturally.

Improve your bedtime routine

You may be sabotaging your efforts to get up early without even realizing it. Drinking caffeine in the later part of the day and using devices that emit blue light before bed can prevent you from falling asleep.

Move your alarm to avoid hitting snooze

Tempting as that snooze button and getting “just a few more minutes” may be, falling back asleep after waking is sleep fragmentation.

According to research, sleep fragmentation increases daytime sleepiness and grogginess, decreases performance, and makes you feel run-down.

If you’re accustomed to hitting snooze, try moving your alarm away from your bed so you have to get up to turn it off.

Eat better

Eating a healthy diet increases your energy and helps you sleep better. On the flip side, foods that are generally considered unhealthy can make you feel sluggish and zap your energy.

Aim for a well-balanced diet full of foods that increase your energy, like fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and foods high in omega-3 fatty acids.

Enjoy the daylight

Daylight helps regulate your circadian rhythms and improve your sleep.

If you get some sun first thing in the morning, it can help boost your mood and energy levels for the rest of the day. Try opening your blinds as soon as you get up, having your coffee outside, or going for a short walk.

You could also try sleeping with your blinds open so you wake up to sunshine — that is, as long as it’s not too bright outside your bedroom window at night.
