Why You Shouldn't Check Your Phone First Thing in the Morning

Checking your phone first thing in the morning is not recommended because your brain is not fully awake during this time, resembling a state of slipping back into sleep. It is advised to refrain from making important decisions in the morning and instead focus on getting up and starting your morning routine. Sleep inertia, which can last up to two or three hours, impairs decision-making ability, leading to people often sticking to the same breakfast routine daily. Being aware of sleep inertia is crucial, as it can affect your cognitive function and increase the risk of making mistakes, especially when driving immediately after waking up.
