A song you enjoyĪ study based out of Australia found that a song you can sing or hum to was most effective to combat sleep inertia. Other factors like metabolism, environment, and fatigue may all play a role in how you wake up, but experts agree that trying new wake-up routines may promote alertness earlier in the day. So you may consider a tone that starts light and gets to the chorus, or a certain type of alarm clock that has progressive tones built into it.
Especially if you’re in the middle of a dream, being startled can be really disorienting. Similar to how we adjust ourselves to new temperatures-various activities or parts of our day-our body is not accustomed to being jolted up and expected to pivot immediately. He compares this to jumping into a cold pool versus slowly adjusting your body to the new temperature inch by inch. “Rather than just literally pulling them from sleep into the wakeful state, you’re sort of gently escorting them into the wakeful state,” Giordano says.
