I love this! I think a lot of us tend to try to ‘slowly’ wake up by hopping on our phones or ‘wind down’ by doing the same thing. If you think about it it’s actually a pretty stressful way to end or begin your day – so much information and so much happening online all the time. Good for you girl, hope these habits are on their way to becoming the norm for you!

As I return to work this week, I’m going to focus on maintaining a set morning routine. No more snoozing & checking social media upon waking up. Like you said, just do it! I think that will set the tone for healthier decisions throughout the rest of the day. Thanks for the wonderful post!

One of the things I’ve decided to do for myself is stop caring and responding to things that aren’t worth my time. My husband is an expert at not giving his time to too many things and it helps to keep you from getting side-tracked or obligated by too many emails, tasks or other things. I also try to be outside as much as possible, because it really does calm your mind. I love listening to the rain with my cat – he keeps me grounded.

In reply to Sara. Good for you, girl! So vital, for sure. Those little things linger, pile up and before you know it they are detracting from the more important things in your life. Taking care of things as they come is critical and it's something I still work on every day, especially considering this world we live in. Thanks for reading!

In reply to Michaela.

Haha – so sorry that you’re allergic to everything! I’ve never had that issue so I can’t relate, but I imagine it’s not very pleasant. Thanks for reading and commenting!

I’d love to spend more time outside if I wasn’t allergic to pretty much all the greenery in my immediate vicinity. I don’t think all natural environments are created equal either – I’d be very happy by the sea but incredibly anxious stuck in a desert.

I say spending time near elements that are associated with your personality, astrological alignment, etc tend to have the best relaxing qualities – I enjoy feeling the breeze, being up high, etc – and I’m an air elemental and a Libra so this makes sense for me. 🙂

My friends always look at me wide-eyed when they see that my inbox never has more than 10-20 unread emails at once (meanwhile they shuffle to find the important ones in a sea of hundreds and hundreds of emails). So vital to keep even the little things in order.

Thank you for this! This must be Faith because I was just 10 minutes ago staring at my running gear and thought to myself “how da fuck am I gonna force myself to go for a run tomorrow morning when I’ve failed to do that for two weeks now??” And then I read this. And you’re so right!! I just need to do it, that’s it, no more excuses! I’ll lay out the clothes next to my bed so I can literally jump into them in the morning and get out. Sometimes I need someone to tell me to just do it and you just did that 😀
