5 Habits To Start Your Day In A Positive Way | #156

Pause, observe a DEEP breath. Do you start your day in a positive way? No, not having the "positive vibes only" mindset, but practicing habits that contribute to you maintaining optimal mental, physical, and emotional wellbeing. In this episode, Nick and Ray close out our month-long conversation on cultivating the 3rd pillar of our Sustainable Self-Care System, our morning routine. They share 5 habits we can consider adding to our morning routine that will help us start our day in a positive way.

Some of the habits options offered up in this episode will be ones we have recommended before, like sitting in stillness [mindfulness] and drinking water. Others will be new approaches to keeping our energy aligned with our values and goals, like setting an intention for the day and defining our top 3 most important tasks [MIT's].

Use what you learn in this episode to define what you want your morning routine to look like for this season of your life. Remember, this is a living routine so it's okay to make adjustments to it over time. This is why having a systematic way of measuring how the habits you practice influence your quality of life is so important. As you change, you can make more informed decisions about what habits in your life you can change to stay in alignment with your values and goals.
