Morning Routine: Stillness - Movement - Stillness
In our fast-paced world, it can be difficult to find moments of stillness and calm. However, I believe that it is essential to carve out time in our lives for moments of reflection and introspection. One of the best ways to do this is by establishing a solid morning routine.
A morning routine is a set of habits or practices that we do each morning before we begin our day. It can be as simple or as elaborate as we want it to be. What is important is that it is consistent and intentional. A morning routine can help us to start our day with purpose, energy, and clarity.
For me, my morning routine is an essential part of my daily life. I wake up roughly 5AM everyday and spend an hour reading, contemplating, and/or writing. Then I spend about an hour in the gym. After the gym, I try to squeeze in a 10 - 20 minute meditation session.
What I love about my morning routine is that it sets the tone for my entire day. By starting my day with practices that nourish my mind, body, and spirit, I am more centered and focused throughout the day. I find that I am better able to handle the stresses and challenges that come my way.
Of course, everyone's morning routine will look different. What works for me may not work for you. However, I encourage you to experiment with different practices and find what feels right for you. Some people may prefer to start their day with a cup of tea or coffee and some quiet time, while others may enjoy a vigorous workout or a hearty breakfast.
The key is to find practices that bring you joy and help you to connect with your inner self. It can be helpful to start small and gradually build up to a more elaborate routine. Even just a few minutes of meditation or stretching each morning can make a big difference in how you feel throughout the day.
If you start your day with intention and purpose, you're better able to meet the challenges and stresses of the day. Plus it's good for your overall wellbeing.
