How do I make myself get up in the morning?
105002
I have found that if I put my alarm in another room, i.e. the bathroom, or on my dresser etc..  That getting up out of bed as opposed to just reaching over to turn the alarm clock off helps keep me up.  Also an apple is better than Coke or coffee to wake you up.

Starting a lucid dream is difficult. First, the best time to attempt it is between 4am-6am (generally when REM sleep is at it's peak. This varies from person to person). So you can try two things: Set a timer or alarm clock to activate a noise at around that time. an alarm will wake you up, something more subtle like a white noise machine or one of those ocean wave/babbling creek deals. OR wake up at 3am, have breakfast (no coffee), then go back to bed 4am-9am or so. \n\nThe goal behind both options is to activate some concious activity during REM sleep, but not enough to wake you up.

Try this:\nThe idea is to tone down mind and body activities hours before sleep so you will get to sleep easier...\nSome useful steps:\n1. Drink less coffee, tea or any other drinks that contain caffeine, especially after later part of afternoon.\n2. Try going to bed at the same time every night.\n3. Avoid alcoholic drinks after evening time as alcoholic drinks may cause early morning wakefulness and may wake you up after your sleep.\n4. Ensure your sleeping environment is suitable for sleeping (not too noisy, not too bright, not too cold, bed not uncomfortable)\n5. Avoid heavy meals hours prior to sleep.\n6. Stop all mind-stimulating activities 1 hour before going to bed (activities like reading research papers, reading mystery solving books, doing your school work, solving a complicated Maths question, watching your computer, watching TV, etc)\n7. Half an hour before bed, take a warm bath. Then drink a cup of WARM milk.\n8. As you lie on bed, take a deep breath and as you breath out, slowly, imagine you have abandoned your body. Imagine that your body slowly 'sinks' into your bed and become 'blended' into the bed. As you are imagining, take another deep breath and count 1. * As you breath out, slowly, now imagine your body is like water ripples spreading out, slowly. Take deep breath again and count 2 and repeat the process (from the place i marked with a *). Start counting from 1 again when you reach 9 or any number you prefer...\nHope this help. Email me if you have queries.

If you're like me, it takes me at least 45 minutes to get ready. Depending on where you're going and how far it is, add that estimated time to your getting ready time, and subtract that from 7:30, and that's the time you'll have to wake up.\n\nGoodluck and hope you don't miss your appointment (or where ever it is that you're going)!

It depends on your own daily schedule. If you are an Early riser, defiantly have a light breakfast and the have your run,preferably on the beach. If you don't get up until noonish run by one with a light lunch....

It would be kind of hard for me to give you a full routine but I could give you a few suggestions. Try and get to bed earlier so that you can wake up earlier. An early morning walk is very refreshing and gets you started to a good day. Never miss breakfast! And try your best to have something healthy like a whole grain cereal or even a porridge ie:oatmeal. Drink lots of water through out the day. Do you have a library or chapers around? Go and have a coffee and read a book for a couple of hours. Have any leisure centres around. Phone and ask them the available activities for the day. They might have aerobic, swimming, kick boxing, skating. Last but not least...make appointements in advance to go out with your friends for a lunch, coffee, movie, walk or many other things. Think possitivly!

Set your alarm clock very early, and don't put it beside your bed. Put it far away from your bed so that you are forced to get up out of bed and turn it off every morning. That is what gets me up.

(1) More clothes on you - this is obvious answer\n\n(2) You have to eat a bit more and more meals\n\n(3) Avoid all cold food and drinks\n\n(4) Avoid lettuce, include ginger in your dish\n\n(5) If you are doing regular exercise, do it a bit longer\n\n(6) A small glass of wine before meal\n\n(7) Take Chinese herb - Radix Angelicae Sinensis\n\n(8) When you first wake up, put the coat on and drink 2 glasses of hot water before taking your breakfast\n\nI think you are rubbing your hands and feet already, so I don't include on my list

well you can try having a couple alarms going off at different times and a different locations around the room. When I am really worried about getting up on time I set my alarm clock for say 8am and set the alarm on my cell phone for 2 different times like 7:54 and 7:57 its crazy but it works lol most of all when I set the alarms on both my cell phones and have them repeat every 5 minutes.....\n\nor you can try drinking like 8 glasses of water before going to sleep, that for SURE gets you up....

The reason you can't wake up early is that you're awake now.  You have to shift your sleep schedule so you get tired and go to sleep early.

Ideally if you could take a nap would be the best.\nget off at 6pm, I would stay awake till like 12 or 1 am then get up at 7 or 8 then try an take a 2 hr or so nap at 3. \nLearn to take naps, get up earlier and then take a 1 to 2 hr nap before you have to go in to work.

(of course it's not "today")\n\nHow about:  Get up off your butt, else it will get BIGGER. ;)\n\nI like the oldie but goodie:  "You snooze, you loose."\n\nSet mini-goals for yourself, such as getting off the couch/chair, then eating breakfast, then brushing your teeth, then showering, then getting dressed.\n\nYou will accomplish so many mini-goals that you'll be ready to conquer the world and tackle the bigger goals! Hooray!\n\nOof, no good.  Pep talking is not my thing I guess.  There's your motivation.  Go get something done or else you will be highly un-motivating like me. ;) :)\n\nKeep smiling :))

Suggestions:\n\n1. Get a dog that barks early every morning.\n2. Get one of those alarm clocks that has wheels and runs away from you when you get up to shut it off.\n3. Drink LOTS of water before going to bed so you MUST get up in the morning to go pee. Then jump in the tub before you have a chance to go back to bed.\n\nHope this helps!!! ; )

Shirt is usually the first off. In the morning it depends on whatever I get to. Waking up is not my forte -_^
