No one likes waking up in the morning. Trust me, getting up early to go to school is my absolute worst nightmare! It's like fighting an internal battle with yourself. But down below, I've listed some tips and tricks that just might make you feel a little less dead inside in the morning!



GET OUT OF YOUR BED 1 HOUR EARLIER IN THE MORNING.

Yes, it’s that simple (or hard depending on your situation). Here are some tricks that help me wake up in the morning:

  • Set your alarm clock early.

  • Don’t press snooze – or do press snooze once if that’s what you need, but then get up!

  • Don’t stay up too late. You still want to aim for your 7 – 9 hours of sleep.

  • If you wake up in the early morning, open your blinds so the sun can help you rise.

1. SPEND THE FIRST 30 MINUTES OF YOUR DAY WITH NO MEDIA

I’m talking no TV, radio, social media… nothing!

When was the last time you did this? If you have zero media during the first 30 minutes of your day, the question is; who would you fill your time?

Now go do that!


2. TAKE A WALK AROUND THE BLOCK

If you have a dog you are used to this, but if not try walking. It’s a great way to wake up naturally and enjoy listening to the world waking up. The fresh air and sunshine is lovely first thing in the morning!

Depending on where you live you can walk to a cafe for your morning brew, or simply just walk, stretch and contemplate.


3. READ FROM A BOOK THAT INSPIRES YOU


Now, I love reading fiction. I could read it all day long. But that doesn't mean you have to be like that if you don't like fiction! Pick up a good book that inspires you, whether that be fiction, nonfiction, self help, religious, etc.

This will help you start your day feeling fresh and rejuvenated!



I hope that you felt motivated and inspired after reading this! With the world in a state of uncertainty, I know it can be very difficult to want to wake up in the morning and do anything productive. But trust me, once you get going, you'll feel much much better about yourself! In the comment section below, tell me about your favourite part of your morning routine!
