According to many people there are two different types of people, morning larks and night owl. When I was a kid I was known to be a night owl, but now as I get older and closer to my 30's I've learned that I am definitely more of a morning bird through and through. Having become a morning bird I have developed my own perfect morning to where I can enjoy myself and everything around me while I relax on my days off. But how can you develop your own ideal morning?
HAVE YOUR FAVORITE DRINK
If it is warm weather, find something cool and rejuvenating to start off your day. If it is cool weather, grab yourself something nice and hot such as coffee, tea, or even hot chocolate.
FIND A GOOD BOOK OR LISTEN TO A PODCAST
The morning is the best time to take a few minutes just for yourself, to really relax and prepare for the day ahead. And sometimes for those who are parents the morning time is crucial because it is truly the only time that they get for themselves before the kids need to be up. Instead of turning on mindless television shows, grab a book that you have been wanting to read. Or you can turn on a podcast that you have been hearing about. There are some amazing TedTalk videos that you can put on in the background as you enjoy a few minutes to yourself.
PRACTICE SELF CARE
Taking a nice warm shower, or even taking a few minutes to yourself and do some of sort of exercise not only benefits your well-being, but also helps you be motivated for the rest of the day. Practice some yoga for thirty minutes, or go for a morning jog...getting your heart rate up will help you feel more productive, and will keep you energized throughout the rest of the day.
