6.Use Technology:
This sounds contradictory to the point before, but if you think of it, you can use technology to beat technology.
Sometimes, we wake up feeling off even after plenty of sleep. That is because our REM (Rapid Eye Movement) cycle has been disrupted. This is the stage where we dream and get the deepest sleep. We are usually in deep sleep for 70–90 minutes. So, it is best to wake up at the beginning of a REM cycle as we are least in deep sleep at this point.

5.No screens in the bedroom:
Try limiting the number of screens in the bedroom. Eliminating all of them from our day is almost impossible in this technology-driven age. Instead of reaching for your phone the first thing in the morning, try journaling for a few minutes in the morning. List out the things you are grateful for...

4.Expose yourself to natural light
Let in natural light as much as possible. Get some fresh air or sit by a window, get a dose of Vitamin D. If you enjoy drinking coffee, then make a cup and savour it while getting a healthy dose of Vitamin D.

7.Be Consistent
Attempt to maintain a consistent bedtime and wake up time. It’s alright to fail. Don’t give up and keep on trying. Remember that you are only human, and it takes some time for our body to get adjusted to change.

2 . Set a goal/ objective:
Set up a goal that drives you out of bed each morning. Getting out of the comfort of your bed is important. Once you are out, you can make your way up. Goals help you to get out of bed and get started for the day. For example, if exercising in the morning excites you, then make it a habit to exer...

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
