17 Ways to Wake Up Feeling Fresh in the Morning

17 Ways to Wake Up Feeling Fresh in the Morning

Okay so we know that waking up and doing things in the morning is the best way to achieve our goals in life. We can exercise, study, work, meditate, etc. much better than other times in the day. However, most of us feel pretty crap in the morning.

So what can we do about it? How can we wake up ready for work?

Ways to wake up feeling fresh in the morning

Here are some things you can do in the short term and the long term so that you will wake up fresh and energetic in the morning. I’ve divided them up into three sections; (1) the night before and (2) during the night and (3) the morning.

The Night Before

1. Avoid coffee, red wine and chocolate the night before
To wake up fresh you need to get a good sleep and one of the best ways to ruin a good sleep is to upset your gut. You really need to keep it happy during the night.

Coffee, red wine and chocolate have been scientifically shown to disturb your sleep more than any other food. They upset your intestines in such a way that you will wake up constantly or have a very light sleep that doesn’t re charge you at all. Try not to have these things after lunch time.

2. Go to bed happy with your partner
One of the best ways to get a terrible sleep is to go to bed before you solve a problem with your partner. In my relationship I never let the sun set on an argument, even if I have to compromise a little bit on my own ego.

Before you go to bed make sure your partner is happy (as much as you can) and make sure that you are happy with them. It is also one of the best things you can do for your relationship, let alone your sleep.

3. Meditate, pray and calm down before going to bed
Every night before I go to bed I do about 30 minutes to an hour of meditation. This is amazing as it allows you to throw out all the days worries and forget about the worries of tomorrow. The future cannot be changed while you are asleep and the past is gone so there is no point losing sleep over it! Let it go.

Meditate or pray or do whatever you do. Simply sitting there and watching your breath is a great way to prepare yourself for a nice deep sleep. Check out this post if you want to learn to do a quick little stress relieving meditation.

4. Don’t eat dinner right before bed
A lot of people run home after work, cook up some dinner and then eat it and go to bed. This is a bad idea. The process of digestion takes a while and you do not want to be laying down right after you ate a big meal. Try and leave a few hours in between your bedtime and your dinner and see how you feel the next day.

5. Organize your room according to Feng Shui principles
I know a lot of you probably think that Feng Shui is a load of bull but just give me a second to convince you that it actually has some “western logic” behind it.

For those of you who don’t know Feng Shui is an ancient Chinese art of setting up your home in a way that balances the energies and vibes by putting furniture in certain “hot spots”.

The bedroom is particularly important and I have found that since I arranged my room according to Feng Shui principles I have had a much more “rested” sleep. In particular the placement of your bed is important. Feng Shui tells us that you should sleep where you can see the door but not be in he direct path of the door opening. This helps us sleep with a sense of security. I can see the practical reason for this. You can get some more bedroom Feng Shui tips here.

6. Go to the toilet
Even if you do not need to go to the toilet before bed you should still have a go and squeeze out whatever you can. The reason for this is that the kidneys will continue to work during the night and by the morning your bladder will be nice and full. If your bladder fills up early you might feel the need to go during the night and this cuts out valuable time from your sleep.

You might think that sleeping is about the total time spent asleep but this is incorrect. It is important to stay asleep without breaking it because it takes some hours to get into the “zone” where you are truly at rest. A toilet break interrupts this zone.

During the Night

7. Not too hot, not too cold
Another sleep related tip: your sleep is greatly affected by the how hot or cold you are during the night. It is important to get a good balance as this keep your energies calm and stops them from spiking.

Try and find a balance between clothes and bed covers. For example, I like to sleep without any clothes but with a heavy blanket. This keeps my temperature pretty consistent. 

8. Keep the window open
One of the best things you can do for your health in general and your sleep in specific is to keep your window slightly open during the night. This has two benefits.

Firstly, the gap in the window will allow poisonous carbon dioxide to float away. The reason the human body breathes out is because carbon dioxide is poisonous. And during the night you take a heck of a lot of breaths and your room fills up with this gas. Let it out the window.

The second reason is that you need to allow new oxygen to float in. This might also help you regulate the temperature of the room.

9. Keep your sleep consistent
People think that you MUST have eight hours sleep to get enough.

Not true.

It is more important to go to bed at the same time and wake up at the same time everyday. Not everyone needs eight hours. In fact, if I get eight hours sleep I usually feel tired and groggy for the entire day. Six to seven hours is about right for me.

Start by setting your bedtime at the same time each night. Forget what is on the television and just go to bed at say 11pm each night. After a while start setting your alarm for the same time each day; even on weekends. If you don’t start waking up fresher and happier each morning I will write you a personal apology. 

10. Cut out noise, it’s actually killing you!
I recently read in New Scientist Magazine that your life is actually being shortened by noise during the night. Yep, that’s right… that screaming police car or roaring traffic is actually killing you! The magazine said that the noise has an effect on your heart and waking up many times during the night puts your body under a lot of stress.

Try and keep your room quiet by wearing some earplugs. You can get earplugs that only cancel out certain sounds so that you can still hear your alarm or a baby monitor on your bedside table.

The Morning

11. Drink a glass of water
A cool glass of water on an empty stomach actually has a lot of health benefits as well as serving to wake you up. The water will kick start your metabolism and as such you will wake up faster and feel more alert. 

12. Exercise
When you are groggy in the morning and nice run in the fresh air can wake you up fast. However, the interesting thing is that when you exercise in the morning you will actually have more energy the NEXT day. The more you exercise the more energy you will have as you become fitter and healthier.

If you need some tips to get up and exercise early check out this post on early morning exercise hacks. 

13. Don’t drink coffee… everyday
Science is now showing that our body becomes accustomed to the caffeine in our coffee and we have less of a reaction to it. This means that your daily cup of coffee is waking you up less and less every day that you drink it.

A better idea is to save the morning coffee for when you are really tired and need a little bit of help. Perhaps if you had to stay out late or get up extra early and you have disturbed your regular sleeping habit. This is the time to have a cup of coffee.

14. Breathe deeply
The first thing you should do in the morning is take some deep breaths into your stomach and concentrate on waking up. Imagine breathing in a bright white light that makes your body feel happy and light

15. Have something to be excited about
If you get up and go to a job you hate to work with a boss that drives you crazy you are not going to really enjoy waking up. However, if you have something you enjoy to go to you will be more likely to wake up happy knowing you have a bit of joy coming your way.

If you can’t leave your terrible boss then you should make time in the morning to do some sport or activity that makes you happy. Start your day with something happy and fun as opposed to starting it with work.

16. Get up straight away
When I was in the Himalayas a buddhist master told me that one of the best things you can do to wake up early and feel alert and fresh is to get up straight away. As soon as your alarm goes off you should get up without snoozing it over and over again.

He said to me half jokingly: “You have to get up before your self cherishing does”. 

17. Be grateful for not dying
The Buddha said that every time you go to bed you should consider that you won’t wake up. That way, when you wake up you will be especially grateful for the day you have ahead of you. Instead of seeing the day as a burden that you have to “get through” you will see it as an opportunity to do something meaningful and beneficial.

Why? Because you could die tonight.

When applied correctly this realization will bring you tremendous energy.

Conclusion on waking up freshly

Each of these tips works. I have tried it on myself and my friends. And the great thing is that the more of these tips you apply the fresher you will feel when you wake up. Try them yourself.

Second Day

17^th April 2012

I woke up as early as 6.00 am today. That’s because I can’t stay asleep anymore since I slept on about 8.30/9.00 pm last night. Well, in an air-conditioned room, who would not fall asleep fast right?..ahaa..

So today there are quite many tasks I’ve done. Somehow, it’s not that hard or heavy task at all, yet not that much. I’ve been helping buying some foods and goods with the Boss, Mr. Francis and David using the company car; CYGNUS..hahaha..kebaruan naik Cygnus…

At Papar, the boss invited us to go to eat breakfast at a chinese restaurant. There I ordered a meehun sup mixed pork meat while my boss ordered dim sum (a lot of dim sum), such a huge breakfast. I got so full that I almost threw up LOL. Then we go buy things lah..

I was taken to go inside the site by David, although I haven’t been to safety induction, so I just stay calm, meaning tapuk2 lahh..haha..But we passed the gate. Rules on site are;

1.       Wear overhead protection (safety helmet).

2.       Safety Glasses.

3.       Long-sleeve shirt or coverall.

4.       Dust protection mask.

5.       Must be safety briefed (safety induction).

6.       Must be a sub-con/main-con personnel (contractor).

7.       Vehicle speed limits 20 km/h.

8.       Stop at the gate for security inspection (in or out).

9.       In and out card scan for supervisor and general worker.

10.   Always think safety.

While I was there, there are not much task I can do since I haven’t introduced about what to do (yet). I helped David to prepare the ‘In and out’ tag for workers or personnel in HSAP for headcount purpose. AND THAT IS THE FIRST TIME I USED THE LAMINATING MACHINE…..which is, COOL MAN!!!..I mean, the device is producing heat to laminate the paper (we bought a special laminating plastic lah for this,,) inside the laminating card, and it’s so new for me..ahaa..well, the device is worth RM3xx.00..it can fit A3 laminating.

At three, I have Safety Interview at the Site Main Office by John See, Health, Safety & Environment Manager (HSE Manager) –While waiting for him, SHO Vincent make a joke about the Korean name “OH, In Tae” the Safety Deputy. Then at the interview I was asked about my experience, if I got the Yellowbook and then he explained that my experience is not enough so he put me into ‘Safety Promoter’ which I do not know what is it about. Perhaps, the one that Go to site to site to tell about safety..it’s a little bit like SHO but without the report to make. This position kinda’ funny to me. But it’s okay it’s alright.

See, the world we live is not that easy as we think. To start another level “We must begin again from zero in that level” – Sidney Mohede. As for me, to be Site Safety Supervisor in Oil & Gas Business, I need at least 5 years experiences as SSS. To be a SHO, need another 5, in total 10 years (at least). To put it easily, let me make a timeline for being Oil & Gas SHO.

1.       Safety Promoter. 1-3 years.

2.       Site Safety Supervisor Assistant. 4 - 5

3.       Site Safety Supervisor. 5 - 10

4.       Safety Officer Assistant.* 10 - 15

5.       Safety Officer.* 15 - 20

6.       Safety & Health Officer Assistant. 20 - 22  

7.       Safety & Health Officer. 22 - 25

8.       Health, Safety & Environment Officer Assistant. 25 - 26

9.       Health, Safety & Environment Officer. 26 - 27

10.   Health, Safety & Environment Manager Assistant. 27 - 28

11.   Health, Safety & Environment Deputy. 28 - 30

12.   Health, Safety & Environment Manager. 30

** Just anggaran..hahaha..but it’s true that to get the SHO title is not easy as what they said in the safety class. 

I think that’s my advice for today. Bye.. =)

1st Day on HSAP

Today is 16^th April 2012. This day is my first time working at a bigger company; Oil & Gas based company, HSAP.

When I first arrived here at their yard to report in – I arrived at 11 am – my will-be mentor ‘David’ or real name Mojimis Gontirik told me to wait. At about 11.50 am, Mr. Jalil (or ‘second boss’) arrived and invited me inside the yard hostel. He talked about why they put me in Admin/Document Control position for three months’ probation. For the time being I will be with David to learn about DC works because David is leaving the company at the end of this month or 30^th April 2012.

Mr. Jalil also explained to me that I am not necessarily in the Admin only as I applied for SSS (Site Safety Supervisor) position; hence I will be also learning the Safety & Health works through time to time.

My first task today are following David to buy stationeries and evening rest food for the workers at the site and who works at the yard. Then at the yard I prepared their orange drink. After evening rest (3.45 pm) they all continue their work and I left in the hostel alone. I started to tidy up the place and sweep the floor (well, sound like ‘amah’ right?) as that is what I do in admin in general.

About the salary, I asked about RM1800 for basic and Mr. Jalil said; “The amount you stated is the amount we will pay you.” So I am relieved but of course they have the right to decrease or kick me out from the company if they’re not impressed with me or in the other words, I am poor in my job performance.

I have about 15 days to learn EVERYTHING that David knows. Which mean, if I failed in any task, I am in great danger, so do David’s company testimony. This could also mean, David will have hard time to pursue his dream in Business field.

So far in my 7 hours new job, I am doing light work. I don’t know what will happen tomorrow but I’m sure that GOD will always arrange a good thing for me. I’ll do my best. Thank You Lord Jesus for everything and God Bless to anyone reading this. Have A Nice Day =)

Schwarzenegger Dog

Have you ever chased by dog/dogs in your childhood? Or get bitten? I do. It’s quite scary but well, it’s an addition to my childhood memories.

Alright, now I wanna ask you, have you watched Terminator? I know you would imagine Arnold Schwarzenegger (Yeah, it’s harder to write his name rather than pronouncing it).

Okay now, back to the chasing dog in the past, what if a dog like this chases you? :

What do you think ? Pretty sure that you don't believe what your eyes are seeing, you might think that this picture is photoshoped, but everything is real.

The type of dog pictured here is a “bully whippet,” a type of whippet with a genetic mutation that makes it more muscular and faster than standard ones.

Wendy, the bully whippet in this photograph, lives in Victoria, British Columbia, and is remarkable in that she has two mutated copies of the gene and is therefore a “double-muscled” bully whippet who weighs twice as much as a standard one. The increased muscle mass, along with metabolism and extremely low levels of body fats, can translate to impressive super-feats, including marked increases in speed, agility and power.

Yes, SHE is she. This might be a fierce mom like in my/your childhood when she gives birth to her puppy. Unbelievable? Believe it!

My Music Definition

Okay, this time I will reveal my music personality in me (as if you are trying hard to make me speak, LOL). I will keep it very, very, very, I mean, super duper simple..aha!

To me :

1# This is music.

2# This is love song.

3# This is worship song.

4# This is praise song.

5# This is bass lesson.

These videos are the most awesome vids I've ever watched.
Okay now I have revealed..you gotta spend me some food! LOL
