While the TikTok girlies are posting their "5-9 before their 9-5's" (basically, videos of them working out and ticking off 101 morning routine ideas before they start work), the rest of us are reluctantly rolling out of bed five minutes before our morning meetings. If you tend to fall into the latter category but want to start making the most of the early hours, you might be wondering how to become a morning person.
So, question: Is it even possible to become a morning person if it doesn’t come naturally to you? According to the experts, there are many benefits to being a morning person. “When you wake up early, you benefit from having extra time to get things done, plus fewer distractions to disrupt your flow,” says mindset psychologist, Dr Rebekah Wanic. “The additional time can also be used to reduce rushing so your day starts with less stress and you’re able to incorporate activities for self-improvement, like exercise, meditation, reading, or even just a solid breakfast, into your morning routine.”
