Sleep specialists say that snooze alarms are not a good idea. The truth is that every time you hit snooze and fall back asleep, you enter a sleep cycle you won’t be able to finish. So when you wake up, you’ll feel very tired and lazy.
When you wake up, stretch your legs and arms while you are still lying in bed. The more you stretch, the more confident and happy you will be during the day. Those who wake up curled like a cat tend to be much more stressed and sleepy.
Checking e-mails as soon as you get up distracts you from the important tasks you need to do. Focus on productive actions instead of mindlessly scrolling through your inbox.

If you are one of those people who drinks a cup of coffee in the morning to wake up, it’s time to reconsider this habit of yours.

Our body’s internal clock is sensitive to light and darkness. If you wake up in low light, your brain could be confused and make you feel sleepy. Open the curtains, and, if it is still dark outside when you wake up, just turn on a strong light.
