Whether we realize it or not, our morning habits can shape
the rest of the day, for better or for worse. Here are 10 of the easiest ways
to kick start your day the healthy way.
Water first
Before tucking in to your morning cup of coffee, drink a
large glass of water to help re-hydrate your body. Add lemon and warm the water
to help flush out toxins. Even better, ditch the caffeine altogether (as if
that were an option) and stick to water, green tea, and fresh fruit smoothies.
Get outside
Regardless of the weather, try to step outside for a few minutes
to breathe fresh air. Amazingly, it really helps to wake up all the senses and
remind you that you’re alive and part of something so much bigger than yourself.
Exercise
Exercise and physical health go hand in hand, but this
doesn’t necessarily mean you should complete an Insanity DVD every morning
before 7:00am. A few good stretches can do wonders for your joints, muscles,
and mind.
Meditate
Meditation isn’t just for the religious. By sitting calmly
and focusing on your breathing, you can feel instantly calmer and ready to
tackle you’re to do list for the day. Try it; it really does work.
