SLEEP
This week let’s try to NOT hit the snooze button!
Sleep science suggests that hitting the snooze button can not only disrupt healthy sleep patterns, but may leave you feeling drowsy for the rest of the day.
Here’s why:
-Hitting snooze throws off your body’s natural “wake up” routine
-It conditions your brain into thinking “Just a few more minutes”instead of “Time to start the day”
-When we fall back to sleep after our first alarm, our body more quickly falls back into the beginning of a full sleep cycle. The early stages of our sleep cycle are the worst time to wake up which consequently leaves us feeling more tired and fatigued for the rest of the day
