活力的一天从早晨开始!
每天你是如何唤醒清晨,开启一天的生活的呢?
如果早晨起来你感到浑身无力,一整天都没什么效率,
那很可能是你做了以下这7项错误的事。
1. Don't hit the snooze button 别把止闹按钮关了
早晨闹钟响后很多人都会按下snooze button(止闹按钮),继续have a short doze(小睡一会),然后才会起床上班。不过即使起床之后,人一天也还会打很多个盹
Sleep specialists say that snooze alarms are not a good idea. The truth is that every time you hit snooze and fall back asleep, you enter a sleep cycle you won’t be able to finish. So when you wake up, you’ll feel very tired and lazy.
睡眠专家指出,用闹钟催醒并不是一个很好的方法。实际上,每次你按下闹钟再回去睡觉,就又会进入一个新的睡眠周期,新的睡眠周期还没结束,你就再次醒来,所以会感到很累。
2. Don't stay curled up in bed别蜷缩着睡觉
When you wake up, stretch your legs and arms while you are still lying in bed. The more you stretch, the more confident and happy you will be during the day. Those who wake up curled like a cat tend to be much more stressed and sleepy.
醒来后,先在床上伸伸腿伸伸胳膊吧。身体舒展的越开,白天就越能感觉自信和快乐。
醒来后像只猫一样蜷缩在被子里只会让你感到更加疲惫、困倦。
3.Never check your e-mail first thing in the morning 早起第一件事千万别查收邮件
Checking e-mails as soon as you get up distracts you from the important tasks you need to do. Focus on productive actions instead of mindlessly scrolling through your inbox.
一起床就查收邮件会分散你的注意力,让你忘记做那些重要的事。所以,专注地去做些具有创造性的事吧,别总一起来就狂刷邮件。
4. Make your bed整理床铺
Leaving your bed made is associated with increasing your productivity for the rest of the day. In addition, this important habit is the first step to help other good habits take hold.
下床整理好床铺会令你在接下来的一天中都更富创造力。这个重要的习惯也是帮助你养成其他良好习惯的第一步。
5. Avoid drinking coffee避免喝咖啡
If you are one of those people who drinks a cup of coffee in the morning to wake up, it’s time to reconsider this habit of yours. Between 8 and 9 in the morning, our body produces large amounts of the energy-regulating hormone called cortisol. If you drink coffee before 9:30, your body will reduce production of cortisol and you will have less energy.
如果你是那种早上靠喝咖啡催醒的人,那现在是时候重新考虑一下你的习惯了。早晨8点到9点之间,我们的身体会大量释放一种叫做“皮质醇”的激素。若早晨9:30前喝咖啡,身体会拒绝分泌这种皮质醇激素,令人感到提不起精神。
6. Don't wake up in the dark 别在黑暗中醒来
Our body’s internal clock is sensitive to light and darkness. If you wake up in low light, your brain could be confused and make you feel sleepy. Open the curtains, and, if it is still dark outside when you wake up, just turn on a strong light.
我们人体的生物钟对光和黑暗很敏感。若你在微光中醒来,大脑便会产生抗拒,令你感到困倦。起床后拉来开窗帘,若户外光线也是暗的,那就开灯吧。
7. Habits are everthing习惯是一切
According to scientists, your willpower is limited and if you spend it doing small things to lengthen your morning, you will have less energy throughout the day. Focus on getting ready, and create a routine that allows you to move 'in automatic mode' in the mornings and save your willpower reserves for the rest of the day.
据科学家研究,人的意志力很有限。如果早晨做了些琐碎的事情来拖延时间,那你一整天都会感觉无精打采。所以,晨起准备好专注地做些事情吧,制定好计划,这样能使你在以后的每个早晨都自觉地进入“自动模式”,更好地保留意志力为一天中其他更重要的事情做准备。
