I began to feel it was a conspiracy to get me out of bed earlier in the mornings. First I found one article with the 10 best reasons to exercise in the morning, all good common sense. Then I had a long conversation about diet and exercise with the psychiatric nurse when our client didn't show up last night; she argued strongly for AM exercise. Then I came home and there was another article with 5 good reasons to exercise in the morning. To top it off, I woke up spontaneously a half hour before my alarm was scheduled to go off (45 min before I usually get up). I gave in and dragged down to the basement, silently cursing all the way, to do the morning wake-up yoga routine on the DVD that I had never tried. It wasn't very vigorous, but I couldn't deny I do feel more energized and awake at this hour than usual. Don't know if I'll be able to stick with it, but I won't say never.
