That sounds brilliant, I will have a look for that as I have an iphone.

I would recommend it too. It's called sleep cycle.

When we sleep our bodies sleep in cycles and so if your alarm goes off when you are in the deepest part of a cycle that's why it's so hard to wake up.

It's quite interesting in the morning you can see exactly when you were sleeping and the cyclical rhythms you were in!

I used to use it a lot & it did work.

Sorry, back to topic......:)

I've got a sunrise alarm clock which has helped to some extent. It was from aldi and I think was £25 (or maybe £20). It's great; has 9 alarm sounds, 8 different lamp colours, a good-quality radio, can set different wake-up times from 5 mins to 30 mins. Also has a sleep function for night-time.

Really can't fault it for functions!

I've downloaded it now and will use it tomorrow. It's all very interesting

Does he have long hair? I can see no other reason for this!

Actually, he does...but so do I ha ha!

His excuse is that he needs a coffee to wake up, and also my hair behaves and his doesn't

Do you think if you got up every morning at 6:45 your body may get into the routine and it may be less of a struggle?

To be honest, I don't think that'd work for me.

When I worked full time I had to get up at around 7.15, that was a struggle each morning.

My natural body clock wants me to go to bed in the middle of the night and get up around noon. But the last time I had a lifestyle to accommodate that was nearly 40 years ago :rotfl:

Now I'm working only two days a week, most days I go to bed at about 11.30pm and get up around 8.30 am. It suits me a bit better than early to bed, early to rise. Maybe when I eventually retire, I'll get back to my teenage bed time and getting up time - but I'd never see my husband, he is happy to go to bed early and get up early

i third these - they're quite expensive but they make it so easy to wake up gradually (and they also work the other way if you have a problem dropping off to sleep, by gradually reducing the light level at night).

I didn't know they did that. I'm not sure mine does, I'll have to
Have a play with it, I think that would be really I helpful.

I think I want too! I've always fancied one, but never fancied the price, but this one sounds good.
