8 mistakes that prevent you from getting out of bed in the morning in the cold

We probably inherited something from bears. Otherwise, how could we explain this irrepressible desire to hibernate as soon as the cold, dark winter arrives? It’s quite simple: we woke up bad! In this post you will find the most common mistakes that, once corrected, will allow you to feel full of vigor even on the coldest morning.

At the awesome.club We have already worked to combat these errors. And know one thing… they work!

We all agree: abandoning the “warm” blanket in the morning is a real feat. But what happens if you next find some “cozy” slippers and a warm, soft bathrobe draped over the back of a chair? We enter the heat more quickly, and thus we will forever forget what it means to be cold in the morning. So get ready before the night comes.

To really wake up in the morning, when everything is still dark, move your alarm clock to another room (you just need to make sure you hear it from your bed). In this way, you will certainly have to let go of the pillow to go and turn it off. And since you’re up…

Another very important point: if you set the alarm for 7, then get up at exactly 7, it is not worth delaying until 7:15 and then 7:30. Set the alarm, right from the start, for the moment when, yes or yes, you need to wake up. And leave no time for indulgences.

Turning on the lights immediately in the bedroom is an option for those lucky enough not to wake up with the rest of the family. But if this is not the case for you, make sure that at least daylight enters the kitchen.

A bright light reduces the production of the hormone melatonin, responsible for drowsiness, so that your body wakes up faster.

The sleeping mask is good in summer, as when dawn breaks you cannot get enough sleep due to a sunny morning. But in winter, the exact opposite happens.

If you have to get up not too early, but at the same time you don’t want to feel sleepy, let natural light wake you up. The same melatonin hormone will be produced in lesser quantity and the dream will “go away” from your mind more quickly.

Analyze your sleep schedule in general. It is not worth trusting that after five hours of sleep you will happily jump out of bed on a dark winter morning.

Try to go to bed early (and since it also gets dark earlier at this time, this task is much easier). A healthy adult needs 7 to 9 hours of sleep. Try to sleep that many hours.

If you wake up each morning with an exhausting thought such as “Once again I have
to get up and I don’t feel like it”, it should not be surprising that, instead of joy and lightness, he gets tired and prefers dreams.

Try to find some kind of morning stimulus for yourself: a ritual that gives you pleasure. Whether it’s a cup of cinnamon coffee or your favorite song. Most importantly: a charge of good energy will be guaranteed upon awakening.

The smell of citrus fruits will help you get out of bed in the morning. An oil fragrance lamp or just a peeled orange can help you in this, which you can enjoy without leaving the blanket. But, judging by the winter trend, tangerine will be even better. The main thing is to notice its invigorating aroma.

By the way, if coffee wakes you up, you can program the machine for the moment you wake up or ask someone in your family to put a cup of coffee on the nightstand.

You already sleep the required amount of hours and you have bright light everywhere, while the alarm is already in another room, but nothing helps you and you feel squeezed like a lemon? Seek help from a doctor.

Constant drowsiness can be a consequence of a lack of magnesium (or other trace elements), but do not try to self-medicate. It is better to take a blood test and let the doctor prescribe a treatment.
