How you spend your morning can affect your whole day. If your routine after waking up looks like brushing your teeth and running out the door, it may be time for an upgrade. Here to tell us more about some of her favorite ways to elevate your morning routine, we have Rachael Loney from La Vida Loney.

  1. Morning routine or evening routine.
  • Take some time each day while the house is quiet and the kids are asleep to do something just for yourself.
  • Rachael’s morning routine: wake up, workout, meditate, coffee, check emails/pay bills, and household chores.
  • Or an evening routine: after the kids go to bed: make some tea, read a book, take a bath, prep the house or backpacks in PEACE.
  1. Treat yourself first thing – splurge on the coffee.
  • Make your morning beverage something you look forward to.
