We wake up feeling brighter, more prepared and ready for the day.ĭavid Dinges, chief of the Division of Sleep and Chronobiology, at the University of Pennsylvania's Perelman School of Medicine, is all for the snooze button. By letting yourself drift back to the land of nod (even just for 10 minutes) we give ourselves a second chance. When an alarm startles us out of deep sleep it can leave you feeling disorientated, confused and not in the best mood.

When we sleep, our bodies have a natural time they feel it's appropriate the wake (more often than not, our alarms get there first). However, after all the bad press the snooze button's been getting, people are finally waking up to the benefits of a bit of down time in the mornings can have. There is endless research and news articles encouraging us to ban that button, making us feel guiltier and guiltier about staying in bed. By resisting a snooze, we become more alert earlier in the day, feel better about ourselves and it's even proven that you can be more productive at work. Waking up feeling sluggish, snoozing and then eventually getting out of bed gives you a bad start to the day.
