To make the morning a source of energy and not stress, it is important to build a morning ritual that will help you recharge and get into the mood for productivity.

The first thing I did was set my alarm for 30 minutes earlier. This does not mean that I get out of bed, but rather give myself time to wake up without rushing. I try not to check my phone right away, but just relax and meditate a little. Just 5-10 minutes of deep breaths and exhalations allow me to feel calmer and more focused. This helps get rid of the feeling of anxiety that often occurs when you immediately plunge into worries.

Then I try to drink a glass of warm water with lemon. This helps not only “wake up” the body, but also start the metabolism, which is important for energy throughout the day. I noticed that after this I feel lighter and ready for an active start.

After water, I often do some stretching or yoga. Not only does it wake up the body, but it also gives a feeling of freedom and relaxation. A few minutes to stretch my back, stretch my legs and neck relieves the tension that has accumulated overnight. This helps me not only to be more energetic, but also to feel better physically.

I also try to avoid a stormy start with too many thoughts. Instead of immediately thinking about things, I take a minute for a cup of coffee or tea. This is my personal moment for calm, where I can enjoy the process and get into a positive mood.

It is also very important to have a healthy breakfast. I prefer something light but nutritious, such as oatmeal with berries or a smoothie. This is not only a boost of energy, but also a positive start to the day when you take care of your body.

I also try not to plan too much in the morning, so as not to overload myself. This is a time to calmly prepare for the day and get into a positive mood. I turn on my favorite music or listen to a podcast that inspires and energizes me.

Gradually, making the morning ritual a part of my life, I noticed that each day begins with lightness and vigor, which helps me be productive and maintain a good mood throughout the day.
