How do you start your day? I know how easy it is to get straight out of bed and step right onto the hamster wheel – with barely enough time to grab a piece of toast and a quick cup of tea before you rush headlong into the day.
The way in which you start your day sets you up for what’s ahead – and starting it well can make all the difference.
I appreciate that if you have young children this tip might be a bit of a stretch – but see if there’s still a way to carve out some ‘me’ time and get your day off to a great start after they have been attended to.
“Within you is a stillness and sanctuary to which you can retreat at any time and be yourself” — The Dhammapada
If you were to design the perfect start to your day, what would it look like? Would you:
- Take some time to meditate or do some yoga …
- Go out for a gentle stroll, listen to the bird song and take the time to rejoice in the things around you …
- Spend fifteen minutes reading an inspirational book, or listening to an inspirational recording …
- Go to the gym, or do some high-energy, aerobic exercise …
- Spend ten minutes doing absolutely nothing …
- Allow yourself to daydream …
Remember: “Within you there is a stillness and sanctuary to which you can retreat at any time and be yourself” – The Dhammapada
If you were to take the time – and make the conscious effort – to start your day off well, what difference do you think it would make?
