MORNING PERSON IN 30 DAYS ☀️ How Anyone Can Learn to Wake Up Earlier

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

IMPORTANT NOTE (PLEASE READ): I want to note that this is a process I have used multiple times in my life to reset my sleep/wake clock to be an earlier riser. For example, after I had each of my babies, I had to reset my clock to wake earlier once they were sleeping through the night. IT IS a little strict. I know it's not for everyone. If it's not for you, that's fine! Or, maybe you're not in a stage of life where this would work. Also, totally fine! I just get asked about my early wake-up A LOT, and so I wanted to share the tried and true method I have used, backed by some interesting research, to make it so I can wake up earlier in the morning.
I'm breaking down the method I have used to learn to be an earlier riser. And a method I believe almost anyone can use to do the same. Just like most things, it requires some discipline and consistency.

    If you have a shorter circadian rhythm, you’re a morning lark; a longer circadian rhythm and you’re a night owl. Neither is morally superior over the other. You may think, as a morning lark, that you’re getting your stuff accomplished before night owls. But turn that thinking on its head-maybe the night owls did your morning stuff the night before.

    Yeees!! Exactly!!. My "get it all done" and "zipping around efficiently" turns on in the evening and really gets going at 1030pm. Now I have little kids and I try to go to bed early and wake up early before them and I'm always fighting waking up and I'm 10x slower in mornings. Way more productive at night but I have to adjust to the circumstances I'm in.

A few times a year I get to sleep until 9am and I feel SO much better. It’s not BS that people have different internal clocks… it has to do with bodily hormones such as cortisol, adrenaline and histamine.

    I love this! Changing my schedule was SO HARD and it took a few months, but I feel better on my current schedule than I ever have. I used to be a night owl and stay up till 12 or 1am, and get up about 7 hours later. I read the research about going to bed/sleep before 10 pm, because our body releases stress hormones after about 10 pm that make us more alert and on "night watch" making it more difficult to fall asleep. No matter how tired or awake I was, I started getting into bed by 9:30 every single night. At first I wasn't falling asleep till a couple hours later, but I could read, journal, pray, etc till I slept. Now I'm usually in bed by 9:30 and sleep by 10. Establishing a consistent bedtime was more important for me than a consistent wake time. My wake time sweet spot is 6:30-7 am. If I wake up later, or go to bed late, I just don't function as well. This saved me at 29 years old. Cured insomnia, depression, helped anxiety, etc. Lots of people say they don't study everyone and that's true, but what the studies find is also true. You do you!

The way I spot the difference is if you really listen to a true nightshifter- they NEVER sleep! They say they do, but they don’t. That’s not me, I can’t function without sleep. There really are just different types of needs for sleep.

But overtime and with the correct routin in place for you, its absolutely good for everyone. I think the main problem is people don't know how to keep a solid routine and stay organised. Maybe learning discipline is the hardest part. But if you've been discouraged, don't give up! Keep at it!

So, when my alarm goes off, I'm going to turn on my salt lamp, which I have next to my bed, instead of the snooze button. It's less jarring. Then I'll start with bed stretching, which I already do (when I eventually get my butt up🤭). And I'll drink up the water I have next to the bed to get me up.

    I actually have a neurological issue similar to narcolepsy that makes it difficult to wake up at ANY time but the research is correct and, even though I feel 💩y after any amount of sleep, I STILL feel slightly less 💩y after 7 hours of sleep. Also, my condition makes me sleepy All. Day. Long. So fun! But, if I wake up earlier I still get more done than if I wake up later, though I struggle GREATLY to wake up (at all. At any time. Even with 12 hours of sleep.). So, challenge accepted. I’m happy to try because even if it was a small improvement, it will still be an improvement. 😊❤

    ​@@alynawatersmusic I can imagine that would make your life a lot more challenging, at best. I hope this helps and that at some point they find something to make life easier for you. I can imagine the research and studies would be really interesting. I have a friend who has a different sleep disorder. They go to sleep and wake up pretty normally but fall asleep as soon as they are in a moving vehicle. It means that they are not able to drive which is quite limiting. They have also been studied with no solutions found. Within 5 to 10 minutes of starting the engine they would be out cold on any trip and even fell asleep when driving a motorbike as a younger person, they had hoped the noise and air and having to balance would be sufficient to keep them awake but unfortunately not.

    @@-_-950 interesting! I think a lot of these issues are related but different. Like, some narcoleptics are put into a 1 or 2 category and some people with hypersomnia see narcolepsy and/or hypersomnia in their family tree. I can imagine how frustrating and limiting that must be. 😰 There was a covered bike I was very interested in, I wonder if pedaling would be enough activity? Wakix is the newest drug and I was in that study but it kept me awake at night and I still felt like a zombie during the day. Interestingly, it’s not a stimulant. I’m impressed it did anything, honestly, but disappointed it didn’t help me. Even prescription stimulants never kept me awake.

Once I'm all the way out and on my feet, it's easier to stay out and get my day started. 🙂

    Okay so what about people with circadian rhythm disorders? My brain and body, my genes if you like, think bedtime is 5am. And yes I can shift my schedule, for awhile, but it always snaps back eventually because I don't get Quality sleep and end up so exhausted I can't be woken up for anything. Also, sorry but a lot of these studies are conflating correlation and causation. People who sleep in sync with the societal clock naturally are of course going to be better off because they aren't fighting their brains and bodies and forcing themselves to be up and functioning at a certain time. Those health benefits are far more related to the ability to get restorative sleep than anything else. I know because I've experienced it and seen so many people with my condition go through it And I've read the studies that asked the question what matters more, timing or quality. I'd bet anything that if you tried to sleep on my schedule you'd quickly begin to feel exhausted and have other health problems. Actually that'd be a fantastic challenge to see you try: sleep on the opposite of your schedule and see how long until your body snaps back. I'd bet you can't make it a week going to bed at 5am and getting up at noon. Heck I'll put money on it even. I'll buy your whole family dinner out if you try it.

    For years I went to bed at midnight and got up at 5:30 am feeling fully rested. If I moved my bed time to 10:00 pm try to get closer to the recommended amount of sleep I found myself waking at 3:30 am after a few nights. 5.5 hours was what worked for me. That worked well until I caught covid last fall. For 4 weeks after that I didn't have enough energy to work more than 2-3 hours a day. Now I can put in a normal workday but I need 7.5 hours of sleep every night. Before covid I would fall asleep quickly and rarely wake up during the night which is probably why 5.5 hours was enough. Now I wake up several times during the night so my sleep isn't as restful as it used to be. I'm hoping that the longer days and warmer weather of spring and summer will reset my circadian rhythm back to what it was. I miss that two hours of awake time.

    Sorry to hear about the complications of covid, it really sucks to hear that you lost your mornings. I know my boyfriend had the flu back in 2018 (before we met) and it left him with lifelong complications. Lung and throat issues, chronic fatigue but trouble sleeping, aches and pains in places that don't make sense. Poor guy, wish I knew how to help him out. I know he's constantly coughing and carrying around tissues and takes decongestants usually prescribed for asthma (and those have stimulating ingredients, I can't imagine how tired he'd be without them), every evening he does that old people think of dozing off in his easy chair. I used to tease him about falling asleep in the evenings when we were hanging out together because he's 11 years older than me (I'm 27, he's 38), then I found out why and I felt like a real witch. He assured me I did nothing wrong, but I still feel awful. He's a night owl and I'm more of an early riser (I get up at 6 AM every morning), so that alone provides a difference in schedule. I just always feel so bad that I can't help.

    When I was working I was up at 4:45 and out the door between 6:15 and 6:30. I showered and applied makeup and got dressed. Then I prepped my lunch, cooked breakfast for my hubby and me, looked at the newspaper headlines before I left. I had a 30 - 50 minute drive depending on the traffic. Getting to school a bit earlier than required allowed me to make a cup of tea and review my plans for the day. But now that I’m retired, that’s another story! I’m also at that age when I get up 2-3 times per night to pee, and I have a hard time going back to sleep.I would love to get more than 3 hours sleep at a time! Yes, I’ve talked to my doctor. She recommended Benadryl or melatonin.
