Any suggestion for a simple morning routine?

Here are some components of a simple morning routine based on suggestions from Andrew Huberman:

1. Exercise early in the morning to increase core body temperature. This could be light movement, walking, or rope skipping to help you feel more awake. Taking a cold shower after exercising can further enhance wakefulness 1.

2. Expose yourself to bright light, preferably sunlight in the first hour after waking to increase cortisol levels and improve mood and alertness 2.

3. Delay caffeine consumption for about 90 to 120 minutes after waking. This can enhance morning alertness and set up a better sleep cycle 2.

4. Track your average wake-up time, which helps determine your "temperature minimum," a reference point for your body's lowest temperature during the 24-hour cycle. This information is useful for optimizing sleep and circadian rhythm 3.

5. Get morning sunlight viewing, without sunglasses, within the first hour of waking. The brightness helps in triggering a cortisol spike, setting in motion a sleep timer for that night 4.

This routine can be adapted based on personal preferences and schedules.
