For gentle waking nothing is better than a Wake-up Light like the one designed by Philips.

With over 100 years of experience in the field of lighting technology, Philips has developed the perfect way to wake you up naturally and gradually.

3) Enjoy a quick but delicous breakfast Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. What will you say to change your boring breakfast for something that makes you excited?
