tbh I been struggling to have a proper morning routine bc Iām not a morning person. But I must convertā¦. My brain hurts from immediately frying it with my āroutineā iPhone doomscroll the moment I awaken.
what Iāve been doing to change this up and not feel absolutely fried is :
First, of all waking up.
Make my bed as well as I can.
Immediately washing my face & brushing my teeth. Throughout all of this, Iām also avoiding turning on any fluorescent lights and just using the peeking morning light as my guide. Then I make my breakfast in the peace n quiet :3!!
I try to not use my phone until 30-45 min after I wake up, and if I can go longer I will. Itās hard when everything regarding school / work & friends are on this little device :(.
This āroutineā may sound so normal to someoneā¦. but keeping this habit with a no phone routine is so helpful for me. Itās so important to get my āmundaneā but necessary tasks to jump start my day without any unnecessary stress to distract me from them. Cause especially during those days where the first thing I do is grab my phone, Iām completely thrown out of whack and living off of stress. I do things like get distracted, by an unexpected assignment or shift change, and forget to wash my face or drink water in the morning⦠Then I feel out of whack.
So ya, what do you guys do to make your morning routine the way it is to set up your day?
