The Best Time To Wake Up


Okay so I got up this morning around 10 am. and realized that I was not feeling the same as usual. My feet felt really weak and I just felt tired. Then I thought to myself and realized that I don't usually wake up at 10 am. I go to sleep at about 10 pm and wake at about 7 - 6 am in the morning. I don't know about you but you always feel a lot more energized when you wake up early.
There is an old saying "early to bed early to rise makes us strong happier and wise."
Or something like that. And I've been thinking that the old folks were right. I mean we humans have a biological clock in our heads. Yes believe it or not but we are made to sleep at sunset and wake up at sunrise. This method would give us the maximum amount of sleep required and allow our bodies to repair and grow. After all a good night sleep is always best. Also when you wake up early you get to breathe in fresh clean air before the hustle and bustle of daily life. You become calmer and your thoughts flow freely. Why do you think most students study early in the morning or a better question. If you had something to do let's say you had to write a speech or something. At what time exactly would you write your speech. Most likely it would be after 2 am. or before 10 pm. isn't that so. That is because those are the peak hours where our minds work better and we are more relaxed. I have a proposition for you or better yet I'll let you decide. If you have difficulty with starting your day. Or you feel awful when you wake up. Then it would be best to try out something new.

Option 1)
If you wake up at 10am-3pm and feel good then good for you. But if you wake up at those times and feel tired due to oversleep or going against your natural biological clock. Or probably have difficulty breathing, or you find it hard to get in gear for the day due to these late hours of waking up then you should use option 2.

Option 2)
You wake up early according to your biological clock so you don't feel tired. You take long deep breaths of air and indulge yourself in healthy breathing exercises. At this time your mind is rested and you are able to think clearly. The environment is quite or a little more quite than usual. You are given the chance to slowly wind into your day.

I mean which is better going with the natural design of your body or going against it. You choose. I know that some of us feel great getting up late and that's probably because your body is adapted or built to do that. So give yourself a clap you are "extremely special."But give option 2 a chance and see what difference it may make in your life.

Best time to wake up in the morning is ..... When we are done with sleep. In other words, when we no longer feel sleepy. Correct?

Well...Kinhar you are correct however getting ample amount of rest is not enough. You also need the right time to rest. For eg. if you sleep at 12 midnight and wake up at 8 am. it's different from sleeping at 10pm and waking up at 6pm.
