Early to bed and early to rise makes a person healthy, wealthy and wise. Well, that’s what Benjamin Franklin wrote, but is it true? Seems it is.
When you go to bed at a regular time, get enough sleep, and get up by at least 6 a.m. you are at less risk of depression, sleep strengthens your immune system and cognition, and you will be more productive.
To make your bedroom a place of comfort and peace, get rid of clutter and anything that reaks of work. This is a place to sleep and shut out the rest of the world.
We need to be on a regular sleep schedule. Maintaining a regular sleep schedule contributes to health benefits just as much as getting those 7 to 9 hours of sleep each night.
If you want to get up early and be productive, you will need to change things up. Perhaps move your alarm clock across the room so you have to get up to silence it.
When getting into a new morning routine of waking up earlier, exercise can play an important role. One of the best exercises for you, no matter your level of physical activity, is walking.
