SOME MORNING PEOPLE ARE BORN, BUT OTHERS ARE SELF-MADE. IF YOU TEND TO ROLL OUT OF BED ALREADY IN A SLUMP, HERE’S HOW TO START THINGS OFF RIGHT SO YOU CAN FEEL PEPPY AND PRODUCTIVE ALL DAY LONG.
Make over your morning routine From moment one, you can start giving your brain and body enough energy to last through the day.
WHEN THE ALARM GOES OFF…WAKE UP.
Tempting as it is, “absolutely do not use the snooze,” says Sabra Abbott, MD, PhD, a neurologist at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago. You may steal a few extra minutes in bed, but being jolted awake repeatedly delivers fragmented sleep. That makes you feel groggy, not rested. To get more sleep, figure out the latest time you need to be up, then set your alarm for then. Feeling zonked out in the morning probably means you need more sleep, so also consider advancing your bedtime little by little— ideally you eventually won’t need an alarm at all. (But set it just in case.)
WHEN YOU OPEN YOUR EYES… PRACTICE A PEP TALK.

RECIPES FOR REAL LIFE
THE BEST
Sometimes it's not enough for our editors to be instantly impressed by a product. Sometimes we want to push it to the limits in one of our three labs, our own homes, or both to see how it holds up under pressure. We cook, we wear, we smear, we clean. We evaluate and tally. Then we give out the REAL SIMPLE Selects seal. When we put that label on something, that means it's among the 5,200-plus products we've formally evaluated according to strict protocols. On this list: some of our current faves. If you see something you like, scan the QR code and get shopping!
