5 Morning Habits to Start Your Day Right

Mornings can often determine a good day or a bad day. 

Here are 5 habits you can establish that will put you on the path to a great day.

Wake Up Earlier

In order to fit in a fantastic morning you’re going to need some extra time in your current routine to establish some new habits for yourself.

Give yourself at least an extra hour to begin to establish your new habits, this quiet time will give you a new sense of peace and allow you to complete your new habits without interruption. A new found joy for the morning sunrise just might be in your future.

Drink a Glass of Warm Water

Drinking a glass of warm water before your morning coffee is an excellent way to get your body going. It’s like oil for the body as it goes to work lubricating all of your internal systems. Drinking your warm water before your coffee gives your cellular system a chance to wake up and begin working.

Do a Stretching Routine

Stretch in the morning to wake your muscles and get them ready for the day. Find a routine that allows you to slowly wake the muscles and yet revives your system. 10 to 15 minutes is all you need to get your body awake and prepared for your day ahead.

Listen to Inspirational Music or an Audiobook

Starting your morning with music you find beautiful, or a book you find inspirational or motivational is the perfect way to set yourself up for success. It can give you something to look forward to in the morning, and helps you establish a mindset that is filled with purpose. Our minds are always ready for knowledge and inspiring music or books can give us that fresh approach each day.

List Your 3 To-Dos For The Day

In this busy life we can sometimes get overwhelmed by what we need to accomplish every single day. Writing down 3 things that must get done that day gives you a personal guideline to follow and it removes it from your subconscious mind. This is a great way to relieve the stress of trying to remember all those things you think you need to do. Studies show that if you write it down you are 7 times more likely to complete your task.

Giving yourself the gift of an extra hour per day to focus on you is one of the greatest gifts you will ever give yourself. Enjoy your day by starting it off right.

Cheers!
