Mindset Shift

If you’re not a morning person the process of waking up can start your day with negativity. Change that. One way to deal with this is to re-frame how you think about mornings. Why are you getting up? What are the things that you enjoy doing during the day? You need to wake and getting moving in order to accomplish those things that you do enjoy. Make it a habit to stop and think about those things first thing when you wake up.

Gratitude

If you aren’t doing it already, begin making it a habit to express gratitude at the start of your day. Think of all the things you are truly grateful for and jot them down in a journal. Skim it while you take your morning coffee or tea.

Some ideas of what you might journal:

  • What physical aspects of your life are your grateful for?
  • What relationships are you grateful for?
  • What emotional aspects are you grateful for?
  • Who’s health are you grateful for?

By re-focusing your thoughts to gratitude you change your perspective and tone to positivity at the start of the day.

Fuel Your Body

Start with a nutritious breakfast. It doesn’t have to be a big production, but make it a priority to feed yourself. If your mornings are busy, do some meal planning in advance so that you have nutritious and easy options available to grab and eat or grab and heat.

Not only does your brain need food in order to operate at its peak, so does your physical body. It is infinitely harder (impossible?) to sustain a positive day all day without providing your body with the food it requires function properly.

Keeping these tasks in mind and acting on them daily not only helps you start your day on a positive note, but it helps you to sustain it throughout the day which improves productivity. Ultimately this helps to meet the challenges of your day with more ease, calamity and mindfulness.  And if your a Mom, then we know you have your hands full! But we also know you can do it!
