We've all been there, what's supposed to be a 5 minute snooze ends up being a vicious snooze cycle we struggle to fight out of. Sleep experts agree that snoozing only contributes to a tired morning, and doesn't help us feel more rested. But how can we resist our warm, comfy bed and sweet dreams when the only thing stopping us is a touch of the snooze?
