What do you absolutely need like a coffee or to start the day off right.
Where in the routine does dressing fit?
So for years now, I've had a morning routine I'm quite an early riser and I love, regardless of time zone, the 'peace' of the morning. Giving myself that space in the day before I see anyone to check my head. Research tells us the mindset we set up on waking takes us through the day.
So, probably in the scheme of things, I wouldn't say dressings number one on my list but it key to reflecting or enhancing my mindset for the day.
My morning routine which I can share with you which has evolved over the years and it is not exactly the same every day. I kind of go with what I need. So away wake up to check my head and do a mental body scan. From there I will meditate. Which is different every day, sometimes it's 10 minutes sometimes it can be longer. Sometimes I use some breath work or movement, and come to stillness. Guided meditations if I feel like it. It's the ideal time to tune into me. Give some clarity, focus, think about what I need. What I want to achieve in the day, what I want from the day.
Intention setting.
From there, its movement, yoga, running, mixing it up.
One of my favourite ways to move it having a dance. I have rediscovered so many songs and memories. Current fav.....
I don't feel 'right' without a hot lemon drink. Followed by coffee and breakfast.
Timing on these is all down today of the week and where I am in the world.
Then it's showtime.
The final touch of getting dressed and ready to go. Some people I know will have everything done the night before. Fortunately have got my wardrobe set up to avoid this.
