Do You Feel Tired All The Time?

There are days where we feel extremely tired and lazy to get out of bed. We snooze our alarms and sleep in till 12noon. After waking up, half of the day is already wasted. Have you ever wondered why you feel tired all the time?

Let's rewind to the night before. What were you doing about 3 hours before you slept?
Texting, watching the television, doing work in your laptop?
Exercised too much before bedtime?

How about your mental, emotional and physical health?
Stressed, or under-stressed?
Did you drink enough water the whole day?
Did you eat the required amount of fruits, vegetables, protein and carbohydrates?

There are many reasons why you might be feeling tired every morning. The activities that you do and the food that you eat the day before and before you sleep does play a part in your quality of sleep at night.

So how do you feel fresh every morning? Here are 9 great tips to wake up fresh!

1. Avoid caffeinated or sugar-loaded drinks at night, before you sleep. These types of drinks can disturb anyone's sleep.


2. Go to bed happy. Do something that makes you happy before you sleep. Never bring any unresolved problems to bed.


3. Pray and meditate. Have a 30 minutes quiet time before bed. Let go of all worriesand avoid over-thinking about tthe next day or the future. Have faith that things will get better.


4. Avoid eating dinner right before bed. If you want to feel light and fresh in the morning, avoid heavy meals after 6pm.


5. Sleep in a well-ventilated area. The level of carbon-dioxide is higher at night. Letting in oxygen and allowing carbon-dioxide to flow out easily will be beneficial for your health.


6. In the morning, drink a glass of water. The water will start your metabolism, making you feel awake and fresh.


7. Exercise. Exercising will make you feel more energetic. Even simple stretches helps!


8. Have something to be excited about. If you love your job or class, then congratulations! That's something to look forward to! However if you find yourself dreading whatever that you're doing now, make a change. Never live your life in regrets.


9. Wake up straight away. Staying in bed even for "just a few minutes" after waking up will most probably make you want to stay in bed longer. Get out of bed immediately after you wake and start your day.

Hope this helps you to start your day right!
