How to Wake Up Feeling Amazing

Wouldnt it be great to wake up and not dread the day?

Its possible, with a little planning.

Heres how to have the perfect morning.

So what if this lets you meditate for 20 minutes?

On the other hand, setting the alarm too late means you have to rush out of bed.

So, be realistic and work backward to find what time youmustbe out of bed.

This time should account generously for the mornings necessary activities, but no more.

And then add on the amount of time youll need for the things youwantto do.

Decide how you feel about those things.

Are they worth the extra hour?

Decide which of the two times is best.

If youd like the option to choose every morning, set alarms for both times.

Turning off the early alarm will be like a snooze button, but perhaps even more satisfying.

Set the Mood

Think about what influences your mood when you first wake up.

Set your thermostat to warm up your home about half an hour before you plan to wake up.

But as long as your plan is reasonable, it should help you relax.

Without a defined timeframe, the stress tends to bleed into all hours of the day.

If youre exhausted all morning, wake-up activities cant really fix that.

you should probably get more sleep, and everything else will go easier.

Both can interfere with sleep.

Try going without and see if you sleep better.

You might have sleep apnea or another medical condition that interferes with your ability to get restful sleep.

Get that checked out.
