These three simple morning moments are absolutely essential for me.
I've found that if you don't get clear on what's essential for you, life will decide for you.
And it won't decide in your favor. If you need some help in sorting through life to find the things that are truly essential for you, I highly recommend reading Greg McKeown's Essentialism.
First. Choose your first thought.
The second that you awake. And I mean that second... deliberately choose your first thought. Don't let that first thought be one of random happenstance or worry.
My first thought of choice is usually "Today is going to be a great day."
Or "Thank You God for today."
Repeat it several times. Feel the meaning of it.
Second. Breathe deliberately & stretch.
A deep, slow inhale. Let it move through your whole diaphragm. Feel it moving oxygen up into your brain, and opening space in your lungs. Bless it for what it is... life for your body.
Lay still and take several breaths. Long and slow, with awareness and appreciation.
Then sit up and stand up carefully and feel your feet underneath you. I usually bounce several times to shake my muscles into place on my skeleton. Then slide down to the floor to begin my stretches.
Third. Essential oils.
I keep doTERRA Essential Oils next to my bedside and at this point I take several drops of Balance and Peppermint and inhale them deeply from my hands for several breaths, then I massage several drops onto the bottoms of my feet.
Balance grounds the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system and helps create a clear, calm head space for beginning the day. Peppermint wakes you up and invigorates you.
When I've finished stretching for a couple of minutes, I move on into my day. These three simple morning moments help my mind, body, and soul feel calm, centered and energized for a beautiful day!
