Do you currently have a morning routine, and if so, what does it look like?

Before I started having a morning routine, I was always in a rush. I felt like I did not have enough time to establish a morning routine outside of my busy schedule. I used to feel as though my days were being controlled by someone else.

When you wake up in the morning and react to whatever is coming your way, you are sending a message to your body and mind that you are not in charge- Dandapani

As the quote by Dandapani suggests, having a morning routine is about taking control of your mind and body. This in turn allows you to, respond thoughtfully to whatever comes your way.

To take charge of my mind and body, I had to create a morning routine that allowed me to ease into the day with more deliberation. This involved dedicating time to quiet my mind and activate my body through exercise and movement. As I discovered, a calm mind enhances clarity of thought and proactive engagement with the world around you.
