Episode 30: Morning Routines When You're Not a Morning Person
"You don't have to be a morning person to have a morning that feels good - you just need one gentle habit that says, 'I matter'.β - Rebecca Ann
Because 5am Wakeups and Kale Smoothies Aren't The Only Way to Start Strong.
If mornings feel more like a wrestling match with your alarm clock than a peaceful time for "alignment and intention," you're not alone - and you're not broken. Some of us just weren't born with the sunrise sparkle gene. (And that's okay.)
After my husband passed, mornings were the hardest part of the day. I'd wake up groggy, already overwhelmed, and instantly behind. Sound familiar?
But I learned something that changed everything:
You don't have to be a morning person to have a morning that feels good.
Episode 30: Morning Routines When You're Not a Morning Person
Start with One Loving Habit
Forget the colour-coded planners and 90-minute miracle routines. What actually worked for me? One mini habit.
π A stretch in bed.
π A glass of water.
π One full breath before reaching for my phone.
That's it.
It wasn't glamorous, but it was doable. And slowly, those tiny actions added up to something powerful: a calmer start and a more grounded version of me.
Mornings Aren't About Productivity - They're about Peace
We've been sold the idea that successful mornings = doing more. But for those of us healing, rebuilding, or just trying to make it through breakfast without crying into our Weet-Bix.... less is more.
You're allowed to begin gently. You're allowed to make mornings work for you - not against you.
