Happy hump day!!!ā£ā£

Let's talk morning routine and starting your day of the right foot... setting yourself up for success from the moment you wake up in the morning.ā£ā£
ā£ā£
First things first... wake and bakeš¬ā£ā£
ā£ā£
Judge me all you want, but it helps ā£my chronic nausea and it settles my stomach šā£ā£
ā£ā£
I wash my face, brush my teeth, comb my hair, andā£ā£
ā£ā£
Meditate! I try to do at least 15 minutes, but even 3-5 minutes of stillness can transform my day! ā£ā£
I might even do inversions as I find it incredibly relaxing. They also help my low blood pressure and svt by increasing circulation.šā£
ā£ā£
Then I read. Preferably something motivational or for personal development. I'm currently reading a couple things... Untamed and Moody Bitches. Loving them both so far! Next up is Come As You Are. ā£ā£
ā£ā£
Afterwards, I brew my tea and journal. ā£ā£
ā£ā£
About that time Chloe is up and ready to start her online classes. So I make sure she is fed and situated.ā£
ā£ā£
Does this happen perfectly every single day? ā£ā£
Absolutely not. ā£
ā£ā£
Maybe some days you want to sleep inā£ā£
Maybe you have a crazy busy schedule and get straight to work; thats okā£ā£
ā£ā£
Thats the beauty of being in control of your life... its your life. Make it work for you! Not the other way around.ā£
ā£ā£
Now that gyms are opening back up I'm definitely going to try to get back in there a couple days a week.šļøāāļøā£
ā£ā£
So maybe some mornings I workout, come home, shower, eat, read, and journal... meditating before bed. That's ok too! Do what works for you, your life, your schedule. ā£ā£
ā£ā£
Don't freak out because you're a mom with a million things to do and cannot wake up at 4 am to hit the gym. ā£ā£
Don't get down on yourself because you're homeschooling and have to skip the gym! ā£ā£
ā£ā£
As long as you are happy and healthy, that's all that really matters in the end. ā£ā£
ā£ā£
Handle your shit, but remember to take time for yourself. ā£balance is everythingā£
ā£ā£
Do you like routines or are you a go with the flow type?ā¬ļø
