But I was up at 8am while SO could snooze till 11 Confused

fudgester SG

I'm extremely used to waking up at 6.30am, even on weekends.

I get up to do my dawn prayers.

I usually try to go back to sleep after that, but more often than not, I can't. Neutral

The man who was death SG

i got a very strange thing going go.....i can only lai chuang when i sleep in my bed, if i sleep on couch cannot do that and will also be more awake than sleeping on bed...

sleep on bed will the more i sleep the more tired i get......

ShrodingersCat SG

DIE LAH this describes me completely.

I MUST wake up early. after that I can take naps. BUT i must wake up first, potter around the house, drink kopi, read papers, then Nap Nap.

BUT i can't sleep all the way through. its liek sleep sprinting vs sleep marathon u know.

Ferret SG

Wanan learn from someone who woke up at 6pm earlier ? Embarassed

viciouskitty74 SG

Always make sure you got some water to drink the moment you wake up.

Then drink up, goes bathroom release water, climb back into bed with more fresh water.....and doze some more.

headache is probably your body toxins accumulating and your body signals for you to either dilute the toxins or release the toxins.

choco B SG

LOL
If you really wanna cultivate the lai chuang habit, I'd advise you to do the err pleasurable solo activity that will wear you out .... almost guarantee you'll doze off for another half hour or so.

It's not a crutch, treat it like a training aid Laughing

Maybe it's your overall sleeping habit. Cut down on or eliminate entirely naps?

Rhonda SG

ShroCat, nothing much to do with age because even when I was a teen, if I were to languish in bed beyond 10am, I'd be afflicted with a severe headache for the rest of the day! Razz

So, no matter what, I just HAVE to get up once I automatically wake up, which is usually anytime from 5:30am to 6:30am, depending on how late I went to bed the night before, and I just HAVE to do something first, like read / brush my teeth / potter around the house / sit on the couch for a while before heading back to bed and sleeping in for another one to two hours then I won't get that dreaded headache for the entire day.

I've never been able to nua in bed the whole day, even if I wanted to. Laughing What I can do is live like a cat - be lazy, and take cat-naps throughout the day. Embarassed

ShrodingersCat SG

even without naps, i will wake up early... Sad
like i said, even if i sleep at 6 am, i would wake up at 9 am and can't go back to sleep liao.... Sad

Hmm however, will consider your suggestion about the .. err.. pleasurable solo activity most diligently. *cough cough*

alfagal SG

well, as a general saying,
as age catches up one sleeps lesser.

there is some truth in it, as one ages, the body produces less melatonin (a chemical that ur body produces when u feel sleepy/when u are alseep).
so some doctors actually encourage pple to take melatonin supplements together w anti oxidants to a healthier life, due to better sleeping quantity and quality.

another way tat we can look at it is, due to the body's (circardian) rhythm, how much we are used to our waking and sleeping hours, esp those w a routined lifestyle.

the Bear SG

i wish i could do that today..

great weather to sleep in.. it's cool, dark and not raining (which means less noise to disturb your sleep)
