Over 15 years ago, I started this morning routine that literally changed my life. โ
Instead of jumping out of my bed after hitting the snooze button 8xs, I started waking up early and doing this morning routine: โ
1. I wake up when the sun is rising and literally give thanks for a new day. It's such a great way to wake up in gratitude, and I love the quietness of dawning mornings.โ
2. After I brush my teeth and wash my face, I jump into my workout clothes and head to the kitchen for a big glass of room temperature water. โ
3. I pray to my Beloved Creator/Spirit and express myself in exactly the way I would speak to someone standing in front of me. I talk about my day, my intentions, what I have planned for the day and what I hope to accomplish. I also discuss any fears or worries I'm holding so that I can release them. I ask for divine support to guide my day so that I'm in alignment.โ
โ 4. I read something positive and affirming. I have a few books I turn to regularly like ๐๐ฃ๐ฉ๐๐ก ๐๐ค๐๐๐ฎ: ๐ฟ๐๐๐ก๐ฎ ๐ฟ๐๐ซ๐ค๐ฉ๐๐ค๐ฃ๐จ ๐๐ค๐ง ๐๐ฅ๐๐ง๐๐ฉ๐ช๐๐ก ๐๐ง๐ค๐ฌ๐ฉ๐ ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ค๐ ๐๐๐ฃ๐ by @โ iyanlavanzantโ โ and ๐๐๐ ๐ฝ๐ค๐ค๐ ๐ค๐ ๐๐๐จ๐ฉ๐๐ง๐ฎ by @paul.selig.โ
โ 5. I meditate and go in. Honestly, some days my meditation is awesome. Some days I have a running to-do list going on in my mind. I never judge my meditation but just allow myself the benefits that come from connecting with myself.โ
6. Remember, I already jumped into my workout clothes. So, depending on the temperature outside I'll head to the park with my hubby for a morning run, followed by a walk to the gym for strength training and stretching. On days when the temperature is too cold for me to tolerate, I head straight to the gym.โ
These days, there's a great deal of science that supports why this type of morning routine can transform your life, but long before I knew about the science, I just paid attention to how it made me feel. It's the feeling that this routine created that started changing my life.โ
Do you have a morning routine? What do you do?โ
