One thing I’ve learned over time is that no matter what time I need to be up and out the house I need to make time for a slow morning.
There’s nothing worse than starting your day with snoozing then realising you’ve over slept, jumping out of bed rushing around, having your NERVOUS SYSTEM go into a complete unregulated mayhem; Which goes on to continue throughout the day.
SLOW MORNINGS For me look like..
✔️ Giving yourself an additional hour (more than you need)
To slowly get out of bed stretch, hear the noises outside the window and less in your head.
✔️ Sitting down with a coffee burning some incense maybe having time to journal 📓 and make a productive to do list for the day ✅
✔️ Having time to walk my dog and watch him eat his breakfast in the morning 🌅
✔️ lastly slow mornings help me self regulate and keep a sense of calm in my actions throughout the day (see how I said actions rather than reactions)
When we wake up in a panic 🫨 we put our nervous system into fight or flight adrenaline goes up and we will tend to become highly reactive creating unnecessary chaos throughout the day creating more cortisol (and the cycle continues….)
Give your self that extra time, and watch how your day feels☺️
I’ve only recently, this past year learned how significant a calm nervous system is! Well mostly since I was made aware that the Nero differences I can sometimes find my self battling with need a little TCL - (self regulating moments) SUCH AS sitting in the car those five minutes before stepping out into the world 🌍
Making sure our world in our heads is right before anything is so valuable, and that’s why …
SLOW MORNINGS ARE MY FAVOURITE ☺️🥰☯️
