How To Wake Up And Not Feel Like Going Right Back To Bed

I don't know about you, but there are often days that I feel like doing this. So, what can we do about it? Check out today's blog post which is based on an article from Nylon.

How do some people manage to look so darn perky as they sip coffee and smoothies in their Instagram stories in the morning? It all comes down to establishing a winning routine, one that’s easy for you to do every day and leaves you feeling awake, alert, and inspired. You don’t have to steal an entire routine from these fitness and wellness experts, but they have some pretty great suggestions of places to start.

Once you begin to develop a routine of your own, optimize it to your specific needs. Meditation for 20 minutes might not work for you, but maybe you can handle five minutes. Yoga might not be your jam, but what about a few basic stretches instead? And journaling can feel a little cliche, but what about a Google Doc where you list one thing daily that you’re grateful for? We don’t all need to be fitness and wellness junkies, but we can all get a little bit better at managing our mornings and crushing the rest of our day.

I've written about some of these before, but here's the list from the article:

• Stay Offline
• Get Some Sun
• Add a Yoga Flow
• Scrape Your Tongue (or Whatever)
• Meditate
• Get in a Quick Workout
