I have to be up early in order to get my day going. Therefore I need to train myself to get to bed earlier. Get a good sleep and wake up on time.
Well, oatmeal can be made in under a minute (if you use oatmeal packets) and then you can toobjt with fruit.Yogurt and granola is also superbfatd and easy.
If you want to change your sleep routine you have to start slow. Let’s say you get up right now at 9am every morning but you want to be up by 5am. Start by going to bed 20-30 min earlier than you normally would and set your alarm for 20-30 min earlier in the morning too (8:40-8:30). Then every time you are able to easily get up at that time set it another 20-30 min earlier, until you reach the time you want. Another thing that may help is to have your breakfast meal planned the night before. Know what you want to have and maybe even have the ingredients out and ready to start quickly (depending on what it is). Also making a morning routine besides breakfast will help you. Mine involves waking up at 6am. I drink a glass of water, get up to stretch and meditate, eat breakfast, brush teeth, read a little, then make sure my room is tidy. Having a routine to stick to gives more reasons to get up at that time.
It’s hard to change habits but not impossible. Try going to bed earlier. Start small my aiming 30 mins earlier then your usual time. Try to avoid exercising too late in the evening or caffeine after 4 pm cause they can give you a burst of energy later on. Good luck!
I would suggest trying to get to sleep earlier to start with, if your schedule allows it. Try some relaxation techniques if you feel restless. Get in bed and read a book or drink some tea! Don’t associate your bed with anything else other than sleep. For example, if you lay in your bed to do homework or watch tv, try to do those activities elsewhere. Then your brain won’t associate your bed with anything other than sleep. Secondly, try to wake up at the same time everyday, even on your days off. Your body will build up an internal alarm clock and eventually, it won’t be hard to get up at your desired time anymore. Another thing you can do is give yourself something to look forward to in the morning. For some, it’s having coffee, or setting aside some time to meditate. Personally, I like getting out of bed and heading to the shower first thing in the morning because it’s refreshing and helps to wake me up just a little bit more. Hope this helps!
Same here, but all you have to do is start to wake 2 or 3 hours earlier than you’re usually waking up. That will make you early riser and throughout the exhausted day you’ll be tired anyway, so, you’ll fall asleep earlier than usual. But, then again block the distractions and create a nice and cozy sleeping environment and go to bed 2 to 3 hours earlier than usual. And strongly stick with it. If it helps you, I’ll be thankful. Take care.
I found that it helps forcing myself to get up early a few times like I would if I have an early meeting and then really listen to my body in the evening and going to sleep as soon as I’m tired. Or prep a healthy breakfast to go the night before.
I know I was like that too, if you really think you are more active at night may be you can keep more activities at night and keep your morning routine shorter. However scientically it’s proven that morning routine and early rise is the best. So if you really want to become a morning person from being a night owl like I did first stop telling your self that you are more active at night than in morning. When ever you say it to you it will be difficult to change your habbit. Then first 3 days sleep 15 mins earlier and wake up 15 earlier, eventually you can increase the time of early sleep and wake up. If it’s hard to sleep 15 mins early try 10 or 5 mins first. If sleeping is hard you can try breathing exercises before you go to bed to relax your mind. Then try to drink water when you wake up. Thirdly, try switching off the mobile phone one hour before your sleep with small step by step process, e.g first day try to stitch it off 15 mins before sleep. Then follow the same with morning not checking your phone in the first hour of the day. These steps helped me, hope it will help you too
The same with me i used to sleep late and wake up late and feel more energy at night, what you should do is try to finish everything you have for today early, try to drink chamomile tae and get ready for bed early too and turn off you phone and sleep early, set your alarm👍🏼👍🏼 You can do this✨. Rubamd7@gmail.com this is my email if you want to contact me, because My day is just like what you said exactly like you said,
Your question needs more context on what commitments you have e.g. work/school start times. The short answer is to pick a reasonable time for you to wake up and keep it consistent every day e.g if you wake up at 11am every day then do your morning routine at 11am everyday it’s fine just Make sure you wake up at the same time everyday
