Getting up in the Morning Tips?

put your bed in the bathroom. when the alarm goes off, roll over into the shower, and turn it on

everyone has their own rhythm. night owls and early birds. ^_^ if you want to get up I suggest you to open your eyes immediately and get out of bed and drink water. people set the alarm clock often to "snooze" ( I do that too) but it's even harder then to get up.

I use one alarm clock (my phone) at arm's reach, and another far enough that I have to get up to. They ring 5 minutes apart. I also usually raise the curtains a bit to allow some daylight in (the sun rises an hour before I wake up).

Also, you may want to imagine what would be the impact on your life if you repeatedly don't wake up on time. If, for example, it would put your job at risk, then this is something that should encourage you to get out of bed. Responsibility is better than caffeine.

Just dont. Why stop at 8 hours of sleep? Reach for more! But if you are looking at a more serious anwser, i have a sporttracker wristband (miband2) which vibrates as alarm. I always set my phone alarm 5-10 minutes after that and put it outside of my bed so i have to get out. Workst most of the times!

instead of just asking random dudes around here you should do some research of your own into the matter. there's quite a good amount of stuff to know and learn and while some of it seems rather obvious it's always good to have a collection of facts condensed onto one or two pages.

it's not just the length but also the quality of sleep that counts.
in general:

• keep your bedroom as dark as possible. no standby led, no car lights, no daylight. nothing. if you can't seal your window then it's tool time. get crafty!
• same goes for noise. no ticking of the clock, no noisy fridge in the kitchen. nothing.
• also no huge / fatty meals before going to bed or anything else that keeps your belly working hard.
• take a walk outside to catch a breath before going to bed.
• if all else fails and you still can't sleep when you want to get yourself tired. do some biking or some running in the evening and you're guaranteed to drop dead as soon as you hit the pillow.

recently i read about some study saying the best amount of sleep for an adult is '7 to 9 hours'. so i'm always aiming for 8 hours. obviously this can and will vary depending on age, gender and personal flavor.

a while ago my old alarm clock went tits up and i started using my phone for that. best thing ever! now i wake up to birds singing and forrest noises with increasing volume instead of a sudden MEEEP MEEP MEEP.
so
much
better
!

again: do some research of your own and try different ideas. it will be worth your time!

I always had trouble waking up went to bed around 2 am and got up at about 10, anything earlyer was horror. Now I usually fall asleep around 00:30 and get up automatically between 07:30-08:00, without alarms. Perhaps this might help.
I broke my cycle by:

1. Not using the snooze button, it makes you more tired and those 10 minutes extra won't help but make you more tired.
2. Finding a natural sleep rhythm, try to sleep at a set time in the evening, get out of bed when you wake the first time in the morning, no turning around for a bit more sleep, no alarms, don't use snooze.
3. Watching a repeat of a (Netflix) series you already know and love while lying down in the evening (new series are too exciting and will keep you awake), or listen to an audio book (Harry potter <3) if you have trouble getting to sleep.

Find a sleep period that works for you, average sleep is 7 to 10 hours depending on age etc. If you have trouble waking up you might need those 9 hours of sleep, so give yourself the time to get the sleep you need.

I know that problem well, I destroy my wake-sleep-cycle on a regular basis :D

What helps myself most of the time:
Having a reason to get up, for an appointment for example.
It may also help if you have friends you want to play with, just make a specific time were you want to play. (or watching a livestreamer who has a specific time he streams)
A girlfriend / boyfriend that forces you to get up

What sometimes helps myself:
Simply forcing to get up, dosnt work well, but sometimes it does.

What didnt help so far:
multiple alarms
alarms i have to get up to deactivate
getting in bed early or getting in bed late
dont sleep a night at all

Its basicly trial and error, you need to find something that helps you :)

You got a lot of lighting in your room on? [tv/switches on standby or such] Personally i like my room very dark at night to a point where i can set the curtains in a way no light comes through. I used to use 2 alarms now i just use the Rooster alarm at loudest setting and having the phone close on a table or such ;p Not the most ideal way to wake up but it wakes me up pretty good. Do not set it on Snooze.

Some people have already mentioned light - my trick that never fails is to pull the blinds all the way up before going to bed and then let nature do its magic. And I do the opposite if it's Sunday and I plan to sleep in.

And how about this - go to bed a little bit hungry and you'll wake up sooner (also verified and confirmed by me). I've also read somewhere that our internal clock adjusts itself according to our meal times, so maybe you can start experimenting with that.

Don't eat, watch tv or play games where you sleep and get a steady rithm going. Also don't sit all day. Go to work by bicycle or do some workouts in the morning and before you go to bed if you can. The first bit is very important (imo) though!

Watch ALOT of Horror Movies, as in the top rated scariest ones, and marathon them nightly, bet you wouldn't even need to sleep.. just kidding |

i don't know how could i help, i have a F$$ked up sleeping pattern. ( sleep at 4am wakes at 5am / sleeps at 4pm wakes at 9pm )

Start moving to new timezones that match your sleep schedule? Never had much luck in the mornings myself

Alarm + sleep next to a snack like fruit or something. I find it if I force myself to eat something I don't fall asleep again as easily.

I've struggled with keeping a "normal" sleep schedule my whole life. I just can't seem to go to sleep before 3am. Even in college when I had 8am classes, I would get up and be on time, but come night time I didn't couldn't fall asleep. I would get about 4 hours of sleep each week day, then sleep till noon on weekends.

When I sleep, if I sleep uninterrupted, I will sleep about 8 hours and wake up. If I do what my body wants and go to bed when I'm sleepy, get up when I wake up, I always end up going to bed at 6am and sleeping till 2pm. I don't like it because the world doesn't go on that schedule, and wish I could go to bed before midnight and get up early all the time. I can get myself on that schedule of going to bed before midnight, but it never lasts more than a week.

What doesn't help is that I can't go to bed until I feel like I will fall asleep. If I don't fall asleep fast enough, eventually I start thinking about stuff, then I never fall asleep.

You have to keep a consistent sleep cycle. If you go to bed/wake up at the same time everyday you'll probably start waking up early without the alarm clock even going off. It used to work well for me but not anymore since I'm to much of a night person and I refuse to go to bed early.
