The following are a couple of suggestions which can make one a morning person:
Slow Shift: Start 15-30 minutes early every day to go towards the target wake-up time. A slow shift reduces body adjustment complexity.
Regular Sleeping Timings: Retire to bed and get up at the same time every single day, even on weekends. It allows one to calibrate his inner bodily clock.
Establish a Bedtime Routine: Establish a relaxing pre-bedtime routine to signal your body that it is time to sleep. This could include reading, meditation, or a warm bath.
Limit Screen Time: Minimize screen usage (phones, television, computer) at least one hour before going to sleep to improve quality of sleep.
Morning Light Exposure: Get outside or open your window the moment you wake up. Natural light lets your body know it’s time to wake up.
Stay Active: Incorporate some physical activity into your day, especially in the morning. Exercise can energize you and help you feel more alert.
Healthy Breakfast: Start your day with a healthy breakfast to fuel your body and kick-start your metabolism.
Plan Morning Goals: Plan enjoyable activities to do during the morning, e.g., reading, journal writing, or sipping coffee, so you are looking forward to something.
Limit Caffeine Intake: If you‘re caffeine-reliant for awakening, try limiting your intake during the evening and afternoon in a bid to increase sleep quality.
Stay Hydrated: Drink one glass of water when you wake up in order to wake yourself up and rehydrate your body.
With these tips, you can gradually become accustomed to waking up early and enjoying the morning!
