We all have those days where we’re so low on energy that hitting snooze feels like a fever dream, we drag ourselves out of bed feeling unready to face the day. If that is the case,don’t worry—there are a few simple habits you can adopt to feel more energized and ready to kickstart your day. Here are some easy ways to make the most out of your mornings.
Limit Morning Screen Time
Scrolling through social media first thing in the morning can set a chaotic tone for the hours ahead, so give yourself at least 20 minutes before diving into your phone and expose yourself to nature’s daylight instead to start your day right.
Hydrate Your Body
Your body needs to be hydrated at all times, so make sure to drink at least a glass of water when you wake up before having breakfast and your morning coffee. You can also add lemon slices to get that Vitamin C kick.
Have a Balanced Breakfast
Skipping breakfast might save you time, but it definitely won’t save your energy, so opt for having a nutritious protein-based breakfast to fuel you up through the day like oats, eggs, and whole grains.
Try Out Morning Meditation
Starting your day with just 5-10 minutes of meditation can do wonders for your mental clarity and can be an amazing way to start your day. Sit in a quiet place, embrace your surroundings, and take deep breaths in and out to reduce your stress levels.
Do Morning Stretches
You don't need to do a full body workout, but to engage in any sort of exercise. For example, practicing yoga and simple stretches as soon as you wake up will increase blood flow, and help wake up your muscles to start your day right.
