🌞How to create a morning routine🌞

I’m going to hold my hands up here, just recently, due to a load of travelling and general life getting in the way, my morning routine has gone to s**t.

So while I’m reorganising mine, I thought it might be a good idea to share and give you some inspiration to create your own.

Why should you have a morning routine?

So for me it:

-gives me a solid start to the day.
-improves and regulates circadian rhythm.
-gives me the time to organise my thoughts and reflect on what I have in store for the day.
-generally improves my mental health.

Humans are creatures of habit, our brain loves routine. This gives us focus, we feel energised, we are more productive, we feel in a better position to go out and crush our day.

We also function much better because of all this.

The ups and downs of modern life has really robbed many of us of this.

Most of us roll out of bed after 5 snoozes, chug down a coffee and get out of the door. This is bad for us.

The best way to get started is to focus on one thing at a time. If you try to do much to quickly it feel very overwhelming and become a chore.

Below are some of the things I feel are super beneficial for everybody.

⏰Get up and go to bed 1/2-1 hour earlier.
🥶Have a COLD shower (huge benefits).
🥓Eat (you will eat a good breakfast).
⏳Rituals (pour-over coffee, matcha etc).
📖Journal(self-reflection and positive thoughts are powerful tools).
⛰️Grounding (see post in my stories).
☀️Sun gazing or red lights (see post in my stories for this too).

You could incorporate anything into your morning routine.

The most important thing is to build it into something sustainable for YOU.

Build it up over a week or so and then stick to it. EVERYDAY.

I promise you will be seeing the improvements in your life in no time.

If you want to chat through your personal situation for starting your routine feel free to shoot me a message and we can work something out to suit you. 🦬

⁉️What do you see when you look in the mirror? ⁉️

How we see ourselves has a huge effect on our mental health.

For a lot of years, I HATED what I looked like.

I’d avoid looking in mirrors at my reflection.

It was a rare occasion that you would get me in a photograph.

The effect this has on your life is massive. If you look in the mirror and feel down about how you look it gets taken into all aspects of your life.

You feel down, and self-conscious, you lack confidence.

I’m sure you can see it’s a vicious downward cycle.

Starting to do something about it though can feel very, very daunting.

The thing is though once you start you start to see changes very quickly, you lose a few pounds, you build a bit of muscle, your diet improves.

All this adds up to you feeling better, happier and more confident.

Tiny differences in how we see ourselves can have huge differences in our life.

I remember taking the second photo, I didn’t realise I was in it at the time (I was taking a picture of the dresser 🤣).

I was devastated at the time, I couldn’t quite believe I’d got to the point where I looked so bad.

I was already in a dark place and this compounded it massively. My self-confidence plummeted even more and I buried myself in getting wasted and eating terrible food.

I put more weight on, got more depressed and felt worse.

In the first picture, I was on the way out to a date with . I felt pretty good about myself, still unfinished but in a much better place. I was confident, happy and in a position to make the most out of my life.

All my past issues haven’t completely gone but they are a lot, lot better.

It’s the accumulation of a lot of little steps, that’s what your journey is and why it’s a journey, not a destination. All the steps along the way are going to make you feel better.

It’s easy to put it off when you think you have to be totally focused on looking like the Diet Coke advert. Don’t let that be the reason you don’t start.

I can help you build the mindset and make the steps to get you through this, DM me the word MINDSET and I’ll get in touch for a chat. 🦬

Self Discipline is Freedom.

When you think about it everything we do on this earth is controlled, the only thing we have control over is our self-discipline.

A strong man is disciplined.

- He chooses the life he will have.

- He chooses to go to do the work to create the body and strength that he wants.

- He chooses to eat the foods that will support this endeavour.

- He chooses not to waste his weekends getting wasted.

- He chooses to do the deep work needed to have a strong mind.

- He chooses to push himself to be his best self.

- He chooses not to waste his time and power watching p**n

- He chooses to help others to come up to his level. After all, a great man said “men learn as they teach”. Seneca

- He chooses to treat others with respect.

- He chooses hard paths as he knows they lead to the best places.

- He has the capacity for violence but he chooses to control it until it is needed.

It’s being disciplined that gets us to where we want to be, to reach our goals, hit our next PB, lose the last ten pounds, get on stage or whatever your goal is.

Motivation can only get you so far, to be sure of achieving the things you want to in life you have to be disciplined. Only you can do that for yourself.

You have to decide if what you want is worth putting yourself through the gruelling workouts, eating right, maybe skipping a night in the pub or facing up to the things that haunt you in life.

That’s how you get results, my fellow warriors.

We are naturally disciplined creatures, this has been lost in modern times due to our modern world where we try to make everything easy. Our ancestors lived hard lives, they were hard men that did what was needed.

Do you want to take back some of your ancestral right to this power?

How to react when it all goes wrong ⁉️

We’ve all been there, you're on track. Food and training are on point, you’re in the zone.

Then out of the blue Thor's hammer swings down and knocks you into next week.

This happened to us this week. A series of unfortunate events, miss timings and un organization resulted in a tsunami of f**k ups.

We were off to Oban for a family meeting on Monday. Originally travelling Sunday but car troubles struck.

We can get a train early Monday morning. Still, time to organise our shopping etc to stay on track. Then we got the timings wrong and had to leave right that minute on Sunday. No prepped food, no plan just on a train for 6.5hrs.

We arrived, and the family we stayed with eat a drastically different diet to us and live out in the sticks, 15 miles from the nearest proper shop or gym.

Plan gone.

We arrived home late last night, not trained and ate let’s just say not great food choices for three days, hours of travel and limited sleep.

I’m sure you can imagine we both feel like death.

So what are we going to do?

It’s important to try and refocus your mindset quickly and not spiral off into oblivion.

For me, I’ll fast for a day before eating a wee pre-workout meal before I train. I like to get the crap out of my system and have a fresh start.

Drink plenty of water- hydration is super important.

Get up early even if you’re tired, this will help kick start you getting back to your normal routine as you will be tired early doors.

A sauna or a cold dip/shower gives your whole body a boost to get working properly again.

The most important thing is to not beat yourself up and get back on the wagon quickly. Things happen in life that are out of your control, you just have to make the best of them and then deal with them.

With Christmas coming this is going to be a problem for a lot of people. Life’s about balance sometimes it’s letting your hair down or others it’s forced upon you.

It’s all a test we have to face, it’s how you react to it that counts.

If you struggle to stay on track. Slide into the DM’s and we can have a chat about what’s causing you to struggle.
