Namaste, iam Pam Carpenter, Good luck today!
Ugh, that alarm! I’m so over it. Every morning it’s the same thing - blaring away and yanking me out of my slumber. But hey, at least I’m not sleeping through it anymore!
Why Can’T I Hear My Alarm When I’M Sleeping? [Solved]
Well, if you’re a heavy sleeper, don’t worry - it’s totally natural! Dr. Meadows says research shows that deep sleepers have more sleep spindles, which is a type of brain activity during NREM sleep. So there ya go!
Set an Alarm: Setting an alarm is a great way to ensure you wake up on time and get the rest you need. It can also help you establish a consistent sleep schedule.
Avoid Caffeine Late in the Day: Caffeine is a stimulant that can make it difficult to fall asleep, so try to avoid drinking coffee or other caffeinated beverages late in the day.
Exercise Regularly: Regular exercise can help improve your sleep quality and reduce stress levels, which can make it easier to fall asleep at night.
Establish a Bedtime Routine: Having a consistent bedtime routine helps signal your body that it’s time for sleep, making it easier to drift off when you lay down in bed each night.
Avoid Electronics Before Bed: The blue light emitted from electronic devices like phones and tablets can interfere with your body’s natural circadian rhythm, making it harder for you to fall asleep at night.
I was sound asleep when the alarm went off, jolting me awake! Ugh, I hate it when that happens. It’s so annoying. Still half-asleep, I stumbled out of bed and got ready for the day.
