Waking Up Tired? 5 Ways to Improve Your Energy With Sleep!

February 22, 2014 By Shaz Fisher Leave a Comment

By Karrie Knopf

Bedroom ExcitementWe have all experienced it. While it’s obvious that waking up tired isn’t fun, it can have a profound impact on day-to-day life. It can undermine your concentration, add to stress, impact your performance in work or school, and hurt your overall health and well-being.

Luckily, there are some strategies that you can use to improve your sleep – and improve your energy throughout the day! It is possible to have a pleasant morning!

5 Ways to Improve Your Energy with Sleep

Use these tips to boost your energy in the morning with sleep:

  1. Get Into a Routine: It’s tempting to stay up late to watch television or get some work done. This is also the case for that snooze button as well! Yet, going to bed and waking up at the same time is best for your sleep, as your body will get used to a set schedule.
  2. Find Your Rituals: Things like smartphones and televisions can wake you up, as this type of (blue) light reduces your melatonin levels. Find activities that promote sleep and do them an hour before bed. Try getting things ready for the morning, brushing your teeth, reading a book, and having a warm bath. These things can relax your body and associate certain activities for sleep.
  3. Keep a Sleep Diary: How often are you waking up tired? A real look at the data can help you (and your doctor) identify what things are affecting your sleep quality.
  4. Wake up the Right Way: Avoiding bright light before bed is great, but this can be helpful in the morning – which is why wake-up lights are effective for many sleepers. Light tells your body to wake up, so take advantage of this. Open up the windows, go for a morning walk, and eat in the sunlight to find your energy.
  5. Check Your Mattress, Pillows, and Sheets: If you have ever slept on a mattress or pillow that doesn’t provide the right support, you have noticed the difference it makes for the quality of sleep you receive. Make sure you are getting the right comfort and support here, and ensure that you are at the right level of temperature with your sheets. Perhaps it’s time to look at mattresses on sale if it has been too long since you’ve bought a bed!

Incorporating these strategies can give you that edge, translating to a morning where you feel energized and invigorated – ready for the day!

Getting to the Bottom of Fatigue

While your problems could be linked to your sleeping habits and sleep deprivation, it could be a more serious matter.

Waking up tired can be caused by a medical condition, such as diabetes, anemia, chronic fatigue syndrome, and others. Sleep disorders are often at play as well, where something like insomnia and sleep apnea can cause you to wake up feeling tired and groggy. Talk to your doctor to determine if a medical condition or sleep disorder is affecting your energy levels.

Often, sleepers find that this goes away with a renewed approach to getting quality sleep. Indeed, it’s all about discipline and doing the right things to taking sleep as seriously as possible.

However, medical factors could be at play. Since there are many potentially-dangerous risks that may be present – such as a dangerous sleep disorder like sleep apnea or an undiscovered medical condition – you should talk to your doctor about your tiredness.

With the right approach and assistance, you will be able to alleviate the tiredness you feel so that you are not waking up tired day after day. Reclaiming great sleep is definitely a wonderful thing – and something you can enjoy as it benefits your health, mood, and overall well-being.
