Do you feel Groggy In The Morning? Here are Tips On How To Be A Morning Person

So many people always say they are not a "Morning Person", some even say they hate Mornings most especially Monday morning. would it not be better not no hate the start of each day? Here are tips on how you can be a morning person and love every morning like you love food or ice-cream. 

• Each sleep cycle lasts 90 minutes. Set your alarm clock to go off after a multiple of an hour and a half, and it will be easier to wake up.
• Use bright, full-spectrum lighting in your bedroom; turn the light on as soon as you get up.
• Exercising will help you stay comfortable.
• Novelty alarm clocks which move around on wheels or fly around the room, making it harder to shut them off, are a good choice for the ultra-sleepy. They're more expensive but they're worth it if you compulsively hit the snooze-button.
• Avoid drinking caffeinated beverages or energy drinks after 4 pm.
• Use an inexpensive electronic light timer to switch on a radio or bright/broad-spectrum lamp at the bedside.
• Avoid bright lights during the evening hours; these will confuse your body. Dim lights several hours before sleep.
• A pet can be a delightful source of early waking (depending on how you choose to perceive this) – give in to your hungry dog or cat and you'll have a reliable early morning alarm for the rest of its life!
• Avoid listening to fast-paced or stimulating music 2-3 hours before intended bedtime.
• Don't turn off alarm and go back to sleep, just think of something exciting to motivate you to get up.

     Warnings:

• Avoid putting your alarm clock by your bed if all you will do is shut it off and go back to sleep again. Shift it to somewhere that requires you to get out of bed to turn it off.
• Sleep researchers believe that many people shift from being temporary night owls in their teens to early 20s (due to hormonal surges) to being morning persons in their 30s onward. However, some people remain night owls for life (being born that way), and if you're a dyed-in-the-wool night owl, it's likely you'll find it hard ever changing over to being a permanent morning person.
