The “R.I.S.E. U.P” Method Makes You a Morning Person . . . If You Can Remember What It Stands For

If you’re not a morning person, a sleep expert has come up with a six-step process called the “R.I.S.E. U.P” method that can help you wake up in the morning.  It’s an acronym where each letter stands for a different step.

  1. The “R” means Refrain from hitting the snooze button.
  2. The “I” stands for Increase your activity in the first hour. Meaning exercise right after you wake up, or just do something small like a quick walk.
  3. The “S” stands for Shower.
  4. The “E” stands for Expose yourself to sunlight.
  5. The “U” is so you listen to “Upbeat” music.
  6. The “P” stands for Phone a friend . . . because talking to someone forces you to be more alert.  But who wants to talk in the morning?
