Mornings are some people’s weak points. Even if they have slept for 8 hours, they can’t recover quickly and can’t handle any friend during the day.
But did you know that if you practice some habits, they can fix your day and make you feel refreshed?
These habits will positively affect your mood and make you start a better day.

Research shows that surrounding yourself with lighter colors can dramatically improve your morning.
The colors green and yellow, for example, are shown to increase your agility, confidence, and overall well-being naturally. The color blue may help you feel calmer, while reds and violets may give you more energy.
While you’re at it, open up those blinds! Basking in some inside sunshine can further boost our brain’s feel-good chemicals.
Isn’t it kind of funny how people who’ve “sworn off” breakfast will dash to the doughnut box that their coworker brought in? (You know who you are! *Shields eyes*
Some people prefer eating first thing in the morning, while others detest the idea of eating breakfast at all. Some may slam a cup of Joe or two and call it good.
But there are numerous reasons for eating something healthy during the morning hours. The most beneficial being, of course, is that your body receives vital nutrients after 7 to 9 hours of fasting – which is what sleep is, pretty much.
And also, eating the food you like is important too!
A healthy breakfast, even if it’s just a piece of fruit, stabilizes blood sugar, increases energy, and promotes cognitive activity. Also, make sure to drink some water. Sleep dehydrates us quite a bit.
After you’ve eaten a bit or prepared your healthy brunch and drank some water (right?), it’s time for some me/us time.
Too many people rush around during the morning hours. Here’s why that’s bad:
Having to deal with a stress response first thing in the morning is more than counterproductive – it can derail your entire day.
Think about a typical story:
We rush around, looking for our keys/wallet/purse (“I swore they were right here!”). Finally, we find said object – but our brain is still in fight-or-flight mode.
Oh, and we’re probably late now.
As our brain is about to calm down from this morning’s first episode, some dimwit almost detaches our car’s bumper as he cuts us off.
We may or may not spew some expletives, but our brain is once again in fight-or-flight mode.
Just when things couldn’t possibly get any worse, there’s a traffic jam. Now, we’re really going to be late.
How do you think this affects us?
And darn near all of us have been there.
Take 10 minutes (more, if possible) to kiss your kids, meditate, read the paper – something that puts you in a peaceful state.
Ohmmm….
