Who has a morning ritual practice? Who wants one? Mine has been an anchor for me for years now, especially during the last season.
What are your favourites?
These are the nine practices in one power hour, all designed to get me into flow state more easily, and recover swiftly. Tend to do it after my first deep work sessions mid morning as when we wake up we are primed for flow so I tend to wake up and flow before food.
I practice the following for an hour during the week, and on weekends, it is 90 minutes on the days I do it, using a timer.
1) Breathwork - state change reset
2) Reading & Journal the takeaways
3) Self coaching questions
4) Alpha state & Gratitude / Metta Bhavana meditation
5) Visualisation / Future Proofing
6) Affirmations / Up Level my langage
7) Goals for the month, week and day
😎 Movement: Yoga and or HIIT
9) Peak state: Dance
I'm moving house this week - and have had a season (since April) of moving around a lot, as so many of you do over summertime! I'll be grateful to land in my new home base for the following year. It's in the stunning countryside and close to a wild swimming lake and lots of woodland for my dog Skye to run around in. I love my home, so I will really enjoy grounding in my new place.
It's been incredible to experience the huge power my morning ritual has in creating a sense of home within me, during a time when the physical 'home' is in flux.
It works wonders! And it's not only kept me feeling positive, but it has also allowed me to stay centred and calm, clear and focused.
I love talking about morning rituals, so tell me if something on my list inspires you, or please share your personal favourite in the comments.

Just been let down. So amazingly the room is still vacant!
Hey my alternative living loving friends! I’ve just moved into a lush, light and low energy two bedroom place and have a double room going.
Woop woop!
It’s just me 💃 and Skye 🐕🦺🐾 in the apartment.
Gorgeous view of trees, the River Severn and Wales from the bedroom window. Waking up to birdsong is heaven!
It’s a super special community, amazing modern eco development, big windows, access to wild nature on your doorstep and community hub space to host events, do co-working, and go to in house yoga and meditation classes.
If you want to be within easy reach of the city and feel like you’re in the peaceful countryside at home then this is for you.
No gas or electricity bills atm as it’s on a microgrid, and super efficient for heating.
Forage for your dinner from the community garden (in season), and explore Blaise Castle Estate directly behind the community grounds.
We are literally living the dream here. 😉
Water Lilies Ecovillage community has 100 residents, 33 houses, and a handful of apartments. It’s lovely to be surrounded by a mixed generation community that invites you to bring your skills and passions to contribute to the vibe here.
DM me with a voice note about you and let’s fix a viewing asap 😊
