Designing A Morning Ritual
Each morning, I start my day with a morning ritual that I designed to fit my needs. I enjoy waking early and having my own sacred time before the rest of the world gets started.
Are you ready to create your own morning ritual? Let’s start!
DESIGNING YOUR MORNING RITUAL
First, always be flexible. Any routine can become stale and no longer inviting. Pick a general time to start each day. This will build a habit and give you a natural consistency. Just knowing that this will be a soulful part of your day will bring you anticipation and joy.
If you wake up late, let it go for a day. This is your ritual, and you can make or break the rules.
STEP ONE
Select your time:
Mornings
Evenings
Weekends
STEP TWO
Pick your senses elements:
Beverage
Perhaps it's a green tea, flavored coffee, or a blended smoothie. It's your choice!
Candles
Have various scents that speak to different moods. Vanilla, spice, sweet, and pine are just a few of the scents you can explore.
Oils or Body Sprays
If you don't want to light a candle, you can opt for a dash of your favorite essential oil on your wrist or neck.
Music
Create multiple playlists on iTunes, Spotify, or your favorite music app. Group your playlist together with songs that create different moods for meditation, journaling, and being creative.
STEP THREE
Pick one or all of these options:
Sit and meditate with gratitude
Stretch and slowly exercise
Journal
Listen to an inspiring meditation app like Calm
Use art as your tool with watercolors or colored pens
STEP FOUR
Tools to support your morning ritual.
