MORNING HACKS

I love mornings. Usually. When I follow these hacks to kick start my morning, I am able to really enjoy them. I love the quiet of the morning and being able to plan my day out. Here are some tips to make the most of your mornings.

1.) Don't hit snooze. Get up early when your alarm first goes off. Starting your day early increases productivity levels and allows you to start the day off calm and quietly as opposed to frantically rushing around.

2.) Drink 8 oz. of ice cold water. It detoxifies the skin and body, kick starts your metabolism and clears the mind.

3.) Set your intentions. Tell yourself it's going to be a great day. Reflect on what you are grateful for. The positive attitude will carry you through the day.

4.) Get moving. Working out in the morning increases mental clarity and keeps your body burning calories throughout the day.

5.) Plan your day. Knowing what needs to get done allows you to tackle it. Pick a couple things that are necessities to focus on and only tackle more when you complete the bigger tasks.

6.) Eat breakfast. Having breakfast does exactly what it's name says...breaks the fast. It provides you with nutrition and energy to get you through the day and vitamins and minerals to keep you feeling great.

7.) Crank the tunes. Blasting your favorite songs can boost your day and keep you feeling positive into the rest of the day.
