Waking up in the morning is difficult for many people, you want to hide everything you have to do and everything you feel under the covers.
Did you know that our thoughts create our emotions? Since we have complete control over our thoughts, we also have the power to reverse the situation.
Enjoy every day in easy ways:
1. Try to remember your dreams
Use them like a fun video playing inside your head, dreams are a great way to feel positivity, joy, and energy.
2. Find what makes you happy
Thoughts create feelings. Happy thoughts create feelings of joy. Think about the things you love and that make you happy.
3. Give gratitude
Gratitude is one of the most important practices. When you wake up in the morning, take the time to list five things you are grateful for and everything will automatically become brighter and more positive.
4. Relax your body
Physical relaxation helps us to release anxiety and stress from our bodies. Include self-care in your daily routine, a relaxing bath, a massage, anything that can relax you. Take some time for yourself.
5. Focus on breathing
Throughout the day, anxiety and stress take over the body, causing our breathing to change and become shallower. The best thing to do is take a few deeper breaths and let the air out slowly. You will immediately feel the relaxation.
6. Don't connect with your thoughts
Every day, stories are created from the circumstances and events that surround us. Researchers say that we have about 60,000 thoughts a day! And the number alone makes you tired. The fewer we give weight to, the better we will feel.
7. Stay away from social media
If you're one of those people who checks social media or their email as soon as they wake up – stop now!
8. Prepare a delicious breakfast
So instead of wasting your morning on a social network, go into your kitchen and make a delicious, nutritious breakfast. It will lift your spirits and give you energy for the rest of the day.
9. Establish a meditation practice
You don't have to do yoga or know anything about mindfulness, you can simply sit cross-legged, close your eyes, and feel the harmony and relaxation in your mind and body. A meditation session during the day can change your routine.
10. Don't check your phone constantly
Technology can have a negative effect on your mind and energy levels. Just like social media, your phone can have a negative effect on your mood.
11. Go for a morning run or walk
The best way to start your day. You don't have to overdo it, just feel good and of course your hormones will feel good too. Waking up endorphins!
12. Read a book or article you like
A book, an article from a magazine or newspaper, or even a blog can lift your mood.
13. Create a digital file from music
Just like with a book, create a library of your favorite music. It will set your mood for the rest of the day.
14. Set your alarm clock to a melodious, happy sound.
Set your alarm to a sound that won't startle you when it goes off. Set it to a pleasant melodic sound that starts softly and increases in intensity as time goes by.
15. Look at something beautiful
Focus your attention on something beautiful, a flower, a painting, a frame that you might really like, you will be surprised by how quickly this tactic can change your mood.
16. Wake up in a clean room
The messier your room is, the messier our mind is. An organized mind must first organize its space. The energy of a clean room becomes more peaceful and welcoming.
17. Ask yourself: “How can I make this day amazing?”
This question makes you realize the control you have over how your day will go. It's a simple question but so powerful.
18. Smile
No matter how you wake up. Even if you don’t feel well and want to stay in bed all day sulking, a smile is enough to “bring you back to order.” Smile for yourself. The best thing to do is go to your mirror and examine your smile. It is sure to change your entire mood and the rest of the day. Try it.
