I aspire to morning routine greatness. Currently, my routine is ok. I’ve been waking up earlier than I want to, which gives me more time but I don’t do a lot with it. Honestly, I wish I was sleeping longer. But, I wake up, drink two shots of Nespresso, and play Wordle, Connections, and Strands. I was off Wordle for awhile but now I’m back on. I have a reasonably impressive (to me) Connections streak but the groupings are sometimes ridiculous and infuriating. So I’m not holding onto that streak too tightly. When it’s done, it’s done. I like Strands- I need a hint about half the time.
I used to do more cardio in the morning. Now, I’m less consistent but would like to add a 30 minute workout. I like it so much more than trying to rally in the evening. My yoga consistency has been awesome!
I don’t journal. I like to write and it would probably help me sort my thoughts but…no.
I am a breakfast person. Lately, it’s been muesli and Greek yogurt.
Then, I go to work. I should probably leave 3 minutes earlier than I do, especially since I’ve been up for awhile. A weakness to work on!
I love slow mornings and I never get ready on time either. And when I wake up in the morning and have more time it still doesn’t play along…
I keep pondering the journaling in the morning too but haven’t done it. I would have to sacrifice some reading time but as I said I am really wondering if that would be a good practice.
My morning is tea, wordle, octordle games, connections, waffle, strands. Lots of games. Then yoga, then my walk, then work. All of this is a big benefit of working from home, because I can get up at 5:15 or so, and goof off until 6:30, and do my yoga and walk, and still get to my desk at 8:00. When I have to go in to the office in a couple of months, something is going to have to give, so I can get dressed and put on make up and hair. Probably the walk, and maybe some of the games will need to go. 🙁
Muesli and Greek yogurt is one of my favorite combinations for breakfast. Do you make your own or what muesli do you use? Trader Joe’s used to have awesome Muesli but it was discontinued .
I buy it! I have bought a German brand recently, but can’t recall the name. Do you have a good recipe?
