Morning Ritual(s)
Tuesday’s Tip…. is all about your Morning Ritual. Did you know that if you have a morning ritual studies show that you will be happier, healthier and more productive. How amazing is that!
As we near the end of Summer, I thought that there’s no better time to embrace or reignite your morning routine.
Here’s the 411 on how I begin my day..most of the time: *This post was inspired by you (my lovely readers) who inquired as to how I start my day.
My Morning Ritual
- Wake Up Between 4-5:30 A.M.
- Morning stretch (20-30 minute Yoga via You tube)
- Highly recommend these two sites:
- Sarah Beth Yoga https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-0CzRZeML8zw4pFTVDq65Q
- Boho Beautiful https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWN2FPlvg9r-LnUyepH9IaQ
- Meditate 15- 20 minutes (Translation: listen to my breath and try to calm my thoughts which are usually going at 100 mph already)
- After I meditate ..Drink 1 cup hot water with lemon
- Followed by a Protein Shake (SunWarrior Plant based protein powder)**Recipe to follow in a later post
- Dress,Make bed, Clean up kitchen
- Out the door by 7:00-7:15 AM

If the thought of doing anything in the early AM (besides pouring a cup of coffee) seems crazzzzzy BUT you want to embrace this whole morning ritual business, I’ve put together a few easy and very doable suggestions to get you started:
- Wake up 15 minutes earlier
- Stretch before you get out of bed (approximately 2-3 minutes of stretching)
- Meditate (10 minutes-listen to your own breath or put on some calming music for 10 minutes)
- Make a cup of hot water and squeeze one lemon wedge into a cup-sip slowly) Great early morning cleanse.
- Make your “to do” list for the day (List 3 things you want to get done today) .
- Eat breakfast…(Something nourishing… to get your system running).
A morning ritual can lead to living a happier,healthier and more productive life. YOU CAN DO THIS…Baby Steps”
