Waking Up!!!

My Dad loved to wake me up at 5:30 each morning. I found that absolutely cruel and wondered if he did it with the sole intention of irritating me. After all the school bus came at 7:30, and I never took more than 10 minutes to Get Ready and Eat my Breakfast. So WHY!!!!... However today, I wish I could wake up at that hour. Everyday I try to get myself out of bed by 6...and if by 7:30 I'm out of it, I consider it an achievement. "Sleeping Early and Waking up Early" is one of the basic techniques to Good Health. I disagreed with that while I was younger, but now I believe it to be absolutely true. Waking up early to a glass of "Lukewarm Water with Lemon", followed by "10 Minutes of Stretching Exercises and Yoga" is the Best Start one can give to one's day.

Benefits of Waking Up Early:

-- More Time Definitely: Time to plan the day, time to iron clothes, time to have that juice, Time to study
-- Rids lethargy somehow...
-- Early morning is a great time to see some nice cute birds, so all orithologists better wake up early...
-- Waking up early also is wonderful for students with exams around the corner. Studies just happen better...
-- You get to see the sunrise...
-- More time to get to work, school, college...Easier Travel... Beat Rush Hour Traffic...

as of today, a Google Search for "Benefits of Waking Up Early" threw up 1330 results. The best of the lot in my opinion are ZenHabits and Advantages of Waking up Early

The external ways to break this cycle are too expensive for our body and mind. You don't want to live a life on drugs or medicines as doctors would like to call them. So we must "Let go of our fears and self-doubts and Lets embrace what’s coming". We get too caught up in the busyness of our daily life.
