How to Steal an Extra 15 Minutes of Sleep Every Morning

If you're not a morning person, every few seconds counts!

Did you know that hitting the snooze button can actually be detrimental to how rested you feel when you get out of bed? When you first wake up after your alarm goes off, your body has already started to wake up naturally thanks to your own internal body clock. You might still feel a little tired, and hitting the snooze button is tempting. However, if you hit snooze and go back to sleep, you start a brand new sleep cycle, and it is at the beginning of this sleep cycle when you sleep the deepest. When your alarm goes off again 10-15 minutes into this cycle, you’re prematurely woken up making you feel tired and cranky. Most often, it’s difficult to catch up from this drowsy state and your whole day can be negatively affected. So…. without hitting the snooze button, HOW exactly do you get that extra 15 minutes of sleep, you ask? The trick is to RE-ADJUST your morning schedule so you have less to do in the mornings and you can wake up 15 minutes later. Here are 3 essential morning hacks that will give you those extra 15 minutes of sleep and change your entire day.

1. Lay Out Your Clothes the Night Before

Seems so obvious doesn’t it?! Let’s face it, rummaging around your closet and deciding what to wear can take anywhere from 5 minutes to an hour! Why not look at the weather app on your phone the night before and decide what to wear before you go to sleep? Literally lay out your entire outfit (including shoes) before you go to sleep and in the morning there’s no rummaging, no deciding or no changing your mind.

2. Prepare Breakfast Ahead of Time

You don’t need to scour the internet for simple weekday breakfast ideas, we’ve done it for you! Here’s a selection of awesome healthy make-ahead breakfast recipes that you can freeze and microwave.

3. Re-Think Your Coffee Routine

If you’re like most people, stopping in to your local Starbucks or Dunkin’ Donuts on the way to the office IS the coffee routine. What if we told you there’s a way to get your mornin’ joe faster without waiting in those ridiculously long lines? Even better, it’s just $1.50 a serve for a premium pour over coffee that you can brew at home WITHOUT using expensive equipment or needing to clean up afterwards. This genius single serve coffee is delicious premium craft coffee brewed the classic and timeless way - the pour over method.

The Simple Way to Brew

As our days have become increasingly busy, and everything seems to get more and more complicated, wouldn’t it be nice to simplify life just a little bit? Even if it was just one thing… Like coffee, for example.

“Simplifying life” was our motivation behind creating One Fresh Cup. Our mission was to distill the traditionally complicated pour over brewing method to something that can be done quickly and easily. Our filters are single serve and pre-packed so all you really need to do is pour over hot water. One Fresh Cup is perfect for the times you’re at home alone, at the office or out camping with no coffee machine, or when you just don’t feel like going to the coffee shop. It’s the quality of a pour over, the ease of a drip machine and the convenience of Keurig. Yet there are no machines, no pods, no pots and literally nothing to clean up. This sounds very much like a brewing revolution!

Having sold over 200 million packs in Asia and Europe since 2005, we are so excited to share One Fresh Cup with you in North America.
