Imagine this, you have a full day ahead and no idea what day it is. Working from home, taking care of the little ones, attending class…your schedule is out of control!
Establishing a good routine is necessary to start your day. Let’s get into five ways you can make your morning routine better.
1. No Snooze
The temptation of the snooze button is strong! But if you wake up at your alarm’s first notice you can jump-start your day or enjoy a little time to yourself. Try going to bed and waking up at the same time each day. Set your alarms and stick to them.
2. Do Not Check Your Phone
Most of us are guilty of checking our phones first thing in the morning. Scrolling social media, checking emails…all before we roll out of bed.
Give your mind some time for relaxation before starting your day. Set a simple rule for yourself, like no phone until after breakfast.
3. Shower & Get Dressed
Never skip the shower. Repeat: NEVER SKIP THE SHOWER! A quick shower would help awaken your senses even if you cleaned the night before. Try a 3-minute shower with our Eucalyptus Castile Soap. Finish with a cool rinse for added benefits. Then, take your time to moisturize your body.
After the shower session, get dressed feeling like a million bucks. Stare in the mirror for a while, we won’t judge.
4. Eat a Good Breakfast
Fuel your body with the nutrients needed to get through the day. Breakfast can also be a great time for family bonding or reflection before the day starts.
5. Keep It Simple
Go easy on yourself. Whether you’re a routine champion or just getting started, it’s all good. Feeling a bit cranky? We have been there. Didn’t have the greatest breakfast? Try again tomorrow. Pay attention to what is working and lean into those activities.
Start with little changes and build from there. You will be conquering your mornings (and days) in no time!
