If you’re already a morning person, then we’re happy for you. Sure, it’s a little unnerving to talk to people who wake up and are just ready for the day without three cups of coffee and at least ten minutes of staring into the void, but we’re just jealous. People say it’s a habitual thing, but we’re not sure that’s always the case. If you want to live that morning life though, then a good way to go about it is going to bed earlier. You’ll also need to find the right time to wake up. We can help with that second one.

The Philips SmartSleep Wake-Up Light is an incredible way to start your day, and could be a massive boost if you’re struggling with a new schedule. It’s usually $109, but it’s on sale right now on Amazon with 30% off. That brings the price down to $76 instead, which is a lot better, and it’s a small price to pay to become a morning person.

Waking Up

This smart lamp can do a lot more than just wake you up, although we should talk about that first. It’s actually clinically-proven to help you get better at waking up, and works by simulating both sunset and sunrise to help you find a more natural rhythm, and slowly lights up in the morning to help gently rouse you from your sleep. That’s not going to stop your kids waking you up, but we all knew that already anyway. It can also turn on the radio in the morning so you wake up to a little bit of sound, which can be a big help. You can also choose from different natural sound options too.

Of course, the light settings it has also mean that you can use it to read at night. It has a massive 20 brightness settings on it, allowing you to choose the one that helps you blitz through those pages to get the book done in time for the book club meet-up. Using this correctly can lead to more energy in the mornings, and even a better mood all-around too. You will probably need to go to bed earlier to get the most out of it though, and it can’t actually make you go to sleep, so work on that while you wait for it to turn up.

This is an amazing addition to any home, but especially for those who are struggling in the morning, and want to get ahead of the darker months. The $76 price is a small amount of money to pay to not be struggling just to get your brain working, so make sure you’re quick if you want it.
