As owls no problems getting up in the morning

How easy to wake up in the morning - a burning topic for many. Here Maria Ovseyets, the author of this article, and decided to share with readers their experiences of transformation from an owl in a lark.

How many people who justify their nocturnal some mythical properties of the organism. I say, an owl, and my body is such that I can not get up early, but at night I am very energetic. Ever wonder why, for example, the army no owls or larks? Yes, because the regime there! And with him all the people - the people, and not the bird.

Waking early in the morning or in the afternoon - it's just a force of habit. It was this lady makes us accept its guidance for the personal desires. I first felt it when she refused from adding sugar to tea. Once the favorite sweet drink suddenly became completely tasteless. Within a month after the start of his experiment, I decided to add sugar to tea and was surprised to find that such a drink is no longer seemed to me delicious.

If you lay down late, about the early rise is not out of the question. Vicious circle.

Similarly, things and with sleep. At first, I got up at 8:00 in the morning. When my time became dependent on me, I was happy. I could sleep up to 10. Then, imperceptibly, my working day began at 11, then at 12 o'clock. And so I started to get up at 3:00. The later I got up, the harder it was to fall asleep early, so the departure time to sleep each time shifted. And if you lie down late, about the early rise is not out of the question. Vicious circle. That is how people commute to owls.

There came a moment when I was offered to lead morning show. This meant that I have to get up at 4:30 in the morning. Refuse such a tempting offer, I certainly could not. I've had two months to ensure that change your mode. Every day I tried to get up a little earlier than in the previous one. At first it was difficult - every morning I was ready to abandon the idea. But the motivation was very high.

As I was able to learn to get up early and be cheerful in the morning?

The first rule: to get up early, you need to go to bed early.

Oh, what a difficult task! Previously lie is even more difficult than it used to stand. Do not wait until you feel sleepy. Go to bed at the same time.

At first it will be difficult to fall asleep. Use some tricks.

• Be sure to turn off the lights and all electrical appliances. The darkness will signal to isolate the hormone that causes drowsiness. If you long for bedtime watching TV or sitting at the computer, it may postpone the release of hormones for a while. Therefore, avoid these activities before bedtime.
• Add to your bedroom scent of essential oils. Many are advised to use lavender, but I do not like the smell. I add to the water or geranium oil and bergamot aroma distribute the bedroom using the nebulizer.
• Do not eat before going to bed. Your body will try to digest the food, and it will complicate the process of falling asleep.

The second rule: the first 5 minutes after waking up is very important, make them as comfortable as possible for themselves.

1. 1 minute. Immediately after you have opened your eyes, think of the loved ones, and those places where you have been incredibly happy. Pleasant memories will set the right mood. My friend loves the mornings to imagine his future car, and the day goes perfectly.
2. 2 minutes. Stretch - it will awaken your body. Take a few deep breaths - it will saturate it with oxygen.
3. 3rd minute. Massage your neck, temples, eyebrows and earlobes. This will provide a surge of blood to the head.
4. 4 minute. Rub the palms of one another. This will improve blood circulation. Grind your body.
5. 5 minutes. Begin to rise slowly. Sit on the bed and drink a glass of water. I pour it in the evening and leave on the nightstand beside the bed.

The third rule: bright colors and cheerful scents You must become your faithful companions every morning.

Hang curtains in the kitchen bright buy colorful dishes. I produced the Pomander, which now hangs in my kitchen. This fragrant bulb, which fills the room aroma. The easiest Pomander, which is very suitable for the morning wake-up, made of citrus fruits. Take the orange, tangerine or lemon, pierce sharp stick and rub the powder of cinnamon. The holes to stick the seed cloves. Ready "device" remove in a warm place for 1.5-2 weeks. After this time, tied with pretty ribbon and hang it in the kitchen. Please their citrus scent Pomander is about six months.

And be sure before you decide to start to get up earlier, decide for yourself what you need. On Layfhakere we have repeatedly talked about motivating force. But if the motivation is not enough, take into service alarm-shredders. Service shove a few hundred rubles, and if you do not get up in the morning at the designated time, the alarm shreds bills into small pieces.
