Tips make you

For many people, getting out of bed in the morning is not easy and sleepy feelings can wear them until the middle of the day. Naturally, you can find a cup of coffee to counter these feelings.

However, for those who do not drink coffee or feel that this is not enough to make them "awake" at the beginning of the day, researchers have listed a list of alternatives.

In a new video on AsapScience, researchers revealed seven tips to help you stay awake when you wake up in the morning, without relying on caffeine.

First of all, they explain that it is important for you to "provide light" enough to wake your body properly. This can be done by pulling open the curtains, going out or even using an illuminated alarm clock if you have to wake up before dawn. In it, the luminous alarm clock aims to simulate dawn and gradually illuminate your bedroom.

Exposure to light is an important part of waking up.

Exposure to light is an important part of waking, as it is directly related to the production of the body's melatonin, explains AsapScience's video. Melatonin is a hormone secreted in the brain, which plays an important role in regulating sleep. It is produced when you are in the dark and drops when your body is exposed to sunlight.

Experts also suggest you end the morning shower with cool water. This is how to activate the brain regions that govern mindfulness, making you feel alert. Researchers also found that bathing with cool water can speed up your metabolism, reducing fatigue.

The first physical activity in the morning can also increase brain activity and make you more alert, as it enhances blood circulation and provides more oxygen to the brain. Experts explain, while exercising sports, the hippocampus in the brain, which is responsible for learning and remembering, is in active status.

Finally, the researchers proposed to listen to music first in the morning. Music can cause the pupils in the eyes to expand and increase blood pressure, creating a stimulating state. Listening to music also increases activity in the brain regions associated with movement and emotions, as well as can help release dopamine throughout the body, activating positive sensations.
