Whether you work all week or just find that time flies, a great way to get a little more “me time” is to wake up earlier. Here are some tips for changing up your morning schedule!
Exercise
Exercising in the morning is an excellent way to get your blood pumping. This could be as simple as taking your dog for a walk around your neighborhood or spending a half-hour practicing yoga. Taking time in the morning to connect your body to your mind is a great way to practice self-care and start your day positively.
Journal
Journaling is an easy way to spend time with yourself and productively use your morning. It can also help you process your feelings and set intentions for your day. Think about what you’re grateful for, what you’re looking forward to, and what you hope to accomplish.
Clean
You probably don’t like coming home after a long day to a messy house or an overflowing pile of laundry. Waking up early is a great opportunity to get those annoying chores out of the way so you can relax later on. Even doing a load of dishes or putting away clean laundry can help.
Read
One interesting common thread among some of the most successful people in the world is that they read – a lot. Try waking up early, making some coffee, and sitting down with a good book. Stimulating your mind is a simple yet effective way to jump-start your day!
