Appointment With Waking

预约起床时间

The harsh truth about the human body is that we're creatures of habit. In some ways this can be extremely inconvenient when trying to take on new things. However, if we allow ourselves to live within the rules of our body's natural cycle, which is a 24-hour circadian rhythm, we will be pleased with the body's functionality.

说到人的身体，我们不得不承认一个事实：人的活动受到习惯的支配。从某些方面来说，这给我们尝试接受新事物带来极大不便。然而，如果我们使生活与身体的生理节律同步，我们就会对自己的身体功能感到满意。

This means that when you find a waking hour that will work best for you each day of the week, you should stick to it. This will allow your body to want to support you in your endeavor of waking up, and rise you out of bed feeling fresh as a daisy.

也就是说，当你找到合适自己的起床时间，就应该坚持下去。这样你的身体就能够在起床时给你以支持，让醒来后的你像雏菊一样充满活力。
