The way you greet and start your morning has a huge impact—positively or negatively—on the rest of your day and your overall health. Let’s find out together with the professionals what time we should you get up to look good and be full of cheer and energy.
Larks vs Owls
It is generally accepted that “larks” are more successful in life, because by getting up relatively early at 6 in the morning, they have time to do very important things for themselves. For example, to exercise, take a contrast shower, prepare a suitable balanced breakfast, eat it calmly and not on foot, plan the day and start living it, oriented according to the schedule that they follow. And even if the visit to the fitness studio with the trainer is planned for the evening, it is more likely that it will actually happen.
Early risers are more disciplined and also pay more attention to their health and appearance. “Owls” often fall asleep, forget or cancel their commitments simply because they cannot plan their time properly.

However, there is another very important physiological process that does not simply maintain human health. Getting up early is the first and very important step of a biomarker, and there’s a reason why.
There are circadian rhythms that humans live by. If you comply with them, that is. you go to bed and get up at a time that works for you in your time zone, all other body systems are working normally. “Everything else” includes: blood circulation, renewal of skin cells and internal organs, self-cleaning of the gastrointestinal tract and the body as a whole, lymph flow, cognitive functions, etc.
A good example of how important it is to be in tune with these rhythms are people with long business trips to other time zones. If you change it slightly, the time difference is say 2-3 hours, you may not feel anything, or be a little more tired for a few days, or have a harder time getting up or falling asleep. But those who change the time zone to 8-12 hours quite often lose sleep and then recover for a long time, including under the control of doctors.
So, according to the circadian rhythm, the body wakes up for vital activity at 6 am, whether you are a lark or an owl. It’s just that you feel like you’re sleeping well until 11 p.m., while your cortisol is long awake and running at full speed. It’s like you’ve been shoveling coal into the furnace of a steam locomotive for five hours, smoke is billowing from the chimney, the wheels are screeching, and someone has turned on the shut-off valve and won’t let you move. That is, “our steam locomotive travels forward,” and we sleep.
The body must use up the energy that the hormone cortisol gives it by burning the excess. This can be done with a good hour of functional or strength training, for example. Either with a run before breakfast or a brisk walk in the park. Simply put, any physical activity is good, the most important thing is to stay awake.
