Whether it’s for work or school, there will always come a time wherein you’re bound to pull an all-nighter to finish whatever it is that’s needed to be done. When doing so, here are some tips to effectively cheat sleep!
If you’re well aware that you’re about to pull an all nighter on a certain date, you might opt to get enough hours of sleep days before so that your body will be more prepared for lack of sleep. Because a day of sleep deprivation is okay, but continuous days are deadly. So make sure to plan your all nighters ahead of time!
The right diet is also crucial in pulling an effective all nighter. To fuel your all-nighter, consume protein-rich goodies like chicken, tuna, cheese, nuts and protein shakes, as well as fresh fruits and veggies like oranges and carrots. Carbs store energy and can even make you sleepier in the short term, so better stack up on protein!
Coffee is a no brainer when it comes to pulling an all nighter but you might be drinking that caffeine goodness all wrong. Coffee is sure to keep you awake, given that you abstain from it first. If you’re a regular consumer of coffee we tend to develop a certain resistance to the caffeine , so try to cut your intake days before the big night. This will make your caffeine intake more effective in keeping you awake.
Physical activities are none of the most effective ways of getting through an all-nighter. Whatever it is that you’re doing, you ought to take a break from it. Walks around or just standing up can help you maintain focus that will result to getting the job done!
Napping may be dangerous because it might lead to a deep sleep. But taking a nap before your work binge is better than taking one in the middle. If you wait until you’re already exhausted to “just take a quick nap,” you might not wake up for hours so nap a little before your normal bedtime, to coincide with your natural peak in drowsiness.
After the all nighter, make sure to recharge and get enough sleep for the next few days, if not there are still ways on how towork or function through out the day with little to no sleep at all.
