A Grounding and Calming Morning Routine
Step 1: Wake up slowly
Take a few moments to wake up and make your way out of bed
Step 2: Drink 20+ ounces of water
Before grabbing for coffee or any other drinks, start your day with plenty of water
Step 3: Find a cozy spot to sit and connect to your breath
Sit on the floor, take a few deep breaths and then begin to ground into your body
Step 4: Start stretching or practicing a short yoga flow
Make small movements that feel good to you in the morning. Spinal twists, cat cow, child's pose and low lunges are all excellent!
Step 5: Find stillness and meditate
Finish up your yoga practice in a seated position, close your eyes and come back to your breath. Visualize what you desire and then think of 3 things you're deeply grateful for.
Step 6: Make yourself a nourishing drink
An herbal tea, a matcha, chai tea or organic coffee can be great choices. Make your drink intentionally and slowly enjoy it!
Step 7: Then, begin your day and turn on your phone
After this amazing grounding routine, you'll be ready to officially start your day! How do you feel?
