Creating Meaningful Morning &/or Evening Rituals
Would you & your daily schedule benefit from having a little more structure? Is setting an intention for your day something that appeals to you? If so, you’re in the right place! I love writing about morning (& daily) rituals. And I would love to hear your ideas too. Rituals enrich our lives!
A Morning Ritual provides a lovely opportunity to set the tone for our day. I find that it really helps me focus on what’s most important & prioritize my seemingly endless “To Dos.” A Possible Morning Ritual Could Look Like This! (Obviously, your routine will depend upon your work & life obligations. Some of us have more freedom & “wiggle room” than others.)
Light a (scented) candle & offer your morning meditation. Maybe a breath meditation. (Inhale love & light; exhale stress & overwhelm.)
Journal for 10-15 minutes. Perhaps journal about your gratitude, your dreams or your sensitivity. Be creative; go wild!
Stretch/Yoga for 10-15 minutes. I like doing wall push-ups & jumping rope too.
Set an intention for your day &/or list your 3 major “To Dos” for your day. (I like to list my “To Dos” the night before. This practice helps to organize my “very full brain.”)
Don’t forget to eat your healthy breakfast; very important! You might even do a little prep the night before - especially if you have kiddos!
An Evening Ritual provides the opportunity for us to wind down, reflect & practice loving self-care. Oh - so important! A Possible Evening Ritual Could Look Like This!
A luxurious (lavender) bubble bath in candlelight. Ooh-La-La!
Setting aside time for reading &/or writing (ie. perhaps writing the book that has been percolating inside of you!).
A short meditation. Maybe a guided meditation for relaxation & a sound night of sleep.
A cup of hot herbal tea.
Thanking God/Spirit/Universe for your day.
Nighty Night. Sleep Tight.
