Are You a Morning Person?

Do you like to wake up early, feel the sun on your face, and go for a jog in the morning? If so, then the chances are good that you are a morning person. On the other hand, if you struggle to get out of bed at 6 am each day and would rather sleep during these minutes every day because it makes life just "easier," then chances are also good that you're not a morning person. That's pretty much all there is to it! It can be tricky to break out of those bad habits we've developed over time, but don't worry - this blog post will help with all your insomnia-inducing questions! Find out more about what causes evening people vs.

As the name states, morning people are more active and awake during the early morning hours, while afternoons and evenings are usually reserved for getting work done or relaxing.

It's a common misconception that morning people wake up at the crack of dawn automatically, while evening-oriented individuals need to force themselves to wake up at an earlier hour. On the contrary, there isn't much of a difference in how either type wakes up and gets out of bed. It may take some time for an evening person to become accustomed to waking early (and vice versa), but it is possible with some minor changes in their wake-up routine.

While most people have one primary chronotype, it is possible to be a mix of both. This is a fascinating phenomenon because it can give you the best of both worlds. For example, waking early and exercising in the morning could make you feel like a morning person while working after 8pm could give you the chance to feel like an evening person! If you feel like your mornings aren't as productive as they should be (or vice versa), then switching up your schedule might do you some good.

The amount of sleep that we get each night will determine what time our body feels most rested.

Evening people need to get less sleep because their bodies naturally feel more rested later. In contrast, morning people need to sleep a little longer because their bodies typically run on the ragged edge during the early morning hours.

To be an evening person, they must have the same amount of melatonin as someone who is a morning person. If someone has a high level of melatonin in their blood, they will feel tired at night (thus making them an evening person). If someone is getting enough sleep at night, they should not be overly affected by their chronotype. Rather than sticking with our usual bedtime routine, try switching it up once or twice a week.

For example, I consider both a morning and a night person. Depends on the amount of work that I have, and I need to organize my day very well.

My body also will talk, and if I feel the need to rest a little bit more, I will do, because I'm not a person that has an opportunity to stick to a plan for all mornings, but most of the times, I'm a morning person, because I'm a Mother of two little ones, so I'm obliged to be! (laughing out loud)

But what I want to say is, I love to do my exercises in the morning and when I do (I usually do 3 to 5 times per week) I wake up at 5h45 am to do it, because I need at least 45m for myself.

I'm making a quiz which I will put in this post and like that you can find out which person are you, a morning or night person!

Lots of love.
