Daylight saving time is ending this weekend and December 's winter solstice will eventually usher in brighter mornings .

Experts say having solid morning and nighttime routines can help make your wake-ups less gloomy.

Waking up to natural light signals to our brain that it's time to get up, and not having it can throw off our circadian rhythm.

Eating breakfast can help increase energy levels, but back away from sugary cereals and sweet treats.

Aim to have a balanced breakfast complete with protein, fiber and carbohydrates.

Eating breakfast shortly after waking up, and not eating dinner past a set hour in the evening may aid sleep, helping you feel more well-rested.
