This document provides 6 methods for waking yourself up: splashing cold water on your face, listening to loud music, talking to someone, acting goofily, exercising briefly, and consuming energy drinks or coffee. These methods utilize shock, noise, social interaction, physical activity, and caffeine to get the blood pumping and increase alertness. Following these suggestions can help someone feel less tired.
2. Splash Some Cold Water On Your Face
• • The shock of splashing cold water on your
face can wake you up and make you feel
refreshed.
3. Listen To Loud Music
• Music makes you want to dance and if that
doesn’t get you moving the loud noise and
bass from stereo can keep you up.
4. Talk To Someone
• Unless you’re extremely tired you won’t fall
asleep on someone you’re talking to. You
have to listen and stay focused. Depending
on the conversation it can pump you up,
maybe you’ll hear some good news.
5. Act Extremely Goofy
• Sounds a bit a strange but acting in such a
way can get your blood pumping, you may
start to laugh and you have to use a bit of
energy.
6. Exercise Briefly
• Exercising can help get your blood pumping.
Something small like a few pushups, jumping
jacks, or just running in place makes you a bit
more alert. Too much of course will just make
you more tired.
7. Energy Drinks/Coffee
• Energy drinks of course wake you up. Not all
of them but coffee or 5 hour energy usually
does the trick for most people
