using multiple alarms is bad
I feel like we’ve known this for years, but using multiple alarms to wake-up is actually harder on your body then if you just woke up on the first one.
In a viral TikTok, a nurse by the name of Jordan Bruss is advising you to no longer schedule multiple alarms and just wake up on the first one.
She goes into the details of why in the video below.
@jordan.bruss Good sleep hygiene is a big part of my physical and mental health. I promise I would not be in the shape I am in without doing some serious research in the deep sleep department. Don't cause yourself extra physical and mental stress. Excess cortisol levels make you gain and hang on to weight. So when the alarm goes off, it's time, get up. You'll look and feel better! #fyp #sleep #sleephygiene #cortisol #cortisollevels #healthylifestyle #healthcoach #lifecoach #nursecoach ♬ original sound - Jordan
Some of the comments on the video raise good points, like someone saying, “EVERYTHING RAISES YOUR CORTISOL LEVELS!” Also, going back to sleep after the first alarm is such a great feeling, especially on the weekend!
