Relaxing the Morning Routine

By Peggy Lindsey

Life is busy! Every day we wake up to a long list of To-Do’s impatiently vying for our attention. Before we know it, we have . . . yet again, faced our tasks stressed out and tense! It seems we easily slip into that up-tight, shallow breathing “here we go again” stance, only to find ourselves overwhelmed and exhausted before we even begin!

Are you the type to jump head-first into the day, grabbing your coffee and scanning your cell phone, turning on the news to see what is happening “out there” in the world? You can feel the adrenalin rushing already as you attempt to take it all in.

What would happen if we tried a new approach? Sure, mornings are filled with an abundance of activity, yet getting off on the right foot can be as simple as a 5-minute tune-in. Start by sitting down for a few moments, and breathe . . . Close your eyes and check in with yourself. How does your body feel right now? What emotions are on the surface? Just observe, and breathe . . . Then choose to turn off the mind chatter. Focus inward and relax.

Can you remember how it feels to take a luxurious bath, have a stress-relieving massage, or perhaps a leisurely stroll in nature? Recall those feelings now, and breathe deeply . . . Getting centered in this way invites a calming effect to take place. These few minutes allow everything to flow more easily and effortlessly just by you being in this naturally relaxed place! So, if you desire a peaceful start to your day, tune in to you!
