  Ever experienced one of those mornings after a late night when you just have to wake up, and the alarm goes off and you just can't seem to find the will to get out of bed? Well, here's a fun and easy way you can use to help you wake up - fresh and alert, made for just such times.. Try these simple steps to get rid of sleep and exhaustion.

Procedure:

• When you come slightly awake, start wiggling the toes of your left foot. Then open and close the fingers of your right hand a few times.
• Then wiggle the toes of your right foot. Then open and close the fingers of your left hand a few times.

 

• Now wiggle the toes of your left foot and open and close the fingers of your right hand at the same time.
• Then wiggle the toes of your right foot and open and close the fingers of your left hand at the same time.
• Do this (moving the alternate hand and foot) several times.

  What you're really doing here is activating the motor-control centers of your brain. At the end of this little exercise, you will find your mind awake and alert, and you will be able to get out of bed.
