MORNING ROUTINE – MY PERFECT START TO THE DAY

Since I have been doing my morning routine, I no longer need an alarm clock. My body wakes up relatively early all by itself. This makes me a lot more productive and satisfied

Today I would like to give you a little insight into these and perhaps create an incentive to try one or two of these suggestions.

 .

Get up before 7 a.m.

 Every morning I jump out of bed at about 6:45am. Before that, I give myself 5 minutes to really wake up, collect my thoughts and start the day in a positive way.

Measure temperature

With the temperature method, you can use natural contraception. I measure my temperature right in the morning before I get up and enter it into an app. This reading is an indirect measure of my hormone level  My thermometer and app: https://www.naturalcycles.com/de
.

Bathroom, getting dressed and then some fresh air

No makeup, real finishing or anything like that. I wash my face with ice-cold water, rinse my mouth, clean my tongue (tongue cleaner) and put on my sports clothes. Easy and comfortable. Time to go, outside into nature with Zoey (french bulldog). I listen to music, answer messages or write down my thoughts. Me Time.

.

Drink, drink, drink

I neglected this point for a long time and found it not so important. No way. Right when I get back home, I’ll have a litre of water. 

Yoga or bodyweight training

Before I prepare my breakfast, I try to train or do some kind of sporty activity (the walk earlier is the perfect warm up).

I do 30-60 minutes of yoga, cardio or body weight exercise. Depending on my mood. Fitness should be fun and you should not have to force yourself to do it.

.

Time for my breakfast & supplements

Probably the most important meal of the day (at least for me). I love Smoothie Bowls, chia pudding, porridge, avocado toast, ..

Mainly lots of vitamins, protein and carbohydrates. My energy for the day.

In addition, some supplements  

While I enjoy my first meal, I watch videos of my favourite YouTubers or surf a bit through my social media

Beauty time

Off to the bathroom. Shower, brush your teeth, beauty products and everything else you need. I love this part and enjoy the time a lot.

.

Productivity and work

E-mails, cooperation requests, telephone calls, planning, … All this is part of my everyday life and I love it. My job fulfils me completely and I couldn’t imagine anything more beautiful at the moment.

Your morning routine could look similar or completely different. It can consist of simple things, such as a glass of water after getting up, showering or a certain breakfast. I look forward to your suggestions and tips on this topic

Love, Nathalie.
