How to Have High Energy Levels in the Morning

morning_exercise We have all felt it - that inability to drag yourself out of bed no matter what you have going on that day.  While it’s normal to feel this way after an occasional night out, or perhaps running on "empty" for a few days by skipping sleep here and there, you shouldn’t avoid mornings every day.  There are plenty of things you can do to jar yourself awake and get your morning jump started.  Some of these suggestions may not be what you expect!

AVOID CAFFEINE
I can already hear you groaning.  While it is true that an occasional shot of caffeine, like your morning cup of Joe, can boost your energy level, eventually you will become an addict.  When your body becomes dependent on caffeine, it requires more to run.  Over time, this will cause other health problems, and potentially insomnia.  This will only increase your difficulty in functioning.

GET ORGANIZED
How does this help in the morning?  If you have planned your day the night before, by either writing down a plan or setting things out, you don’t have to lay in bed dreading figuring out what to do.  From singles to parents with multiple kids, spending time getting your next day organized will directly affect the flow of your next morning.

EXERCISE..EXERCISE…EXERCISE
Even when you feel like doing it the least, it will help the most.  Something as simple as a stroll around the block can energize you for the day.  Incorporate exercise into your early morning routine, before you even hit the shower.  You will feel great not just in the morning, but the whole day long.

DRINK LOTS OF WATER
The importance of water can not be stated enough.  Not just for feeling good, but also for weight loss, appetite control and many other things.  Drinking more water is one of the single most important health decisions you can make.

STICK TO A SCHEDULE
If you go to bed and wake up the same time every day (even on the weekends), your body "clock" will be trained to wake up and your body won’t resist.  You will not feel sluggish if your body knows it is time to wake up - you may even be able to get by without an alarm clock eventually.

You can find countless ways to stay energized.  Sometimes it just takes a little motivation to get started.  So, pull back your covers. Stretch you r arms.   ARGH!  It’s morning.  But you can do it.  Pull on those long lost tennis shoes, skip the coffee, and give your body a few days to adjust.  You might just be a morning person after all.
