Wake with natural light
Allow your body to grant cycles of nature is a much more gentle way to ease into the day than waking up to the shock of an alarm in a dark room. Having to involuntarily drag you from a deep sleep or, worse yet, an incredible dream, is no way to start the day. partially close your blinds or curtains at night instead of closing them all the way so you can greet the first rays of dawn. You might find you wake up earlier, but that means extra time to start a leisurely day.

take the time to define your intentions
Find a place in the sun - like a window seat on a reverse - and take a few minutes to stop, breathe and ready yourself for the day - no matter what is in store. This is also the perfect time to set your intentions for the day. What kind of day you want to have? What type of person you want to be today? If someone you met for the first time today, what would you want them to say about you? Setting intentions such as these encourage you to live more consciously and in the moment. Or, as I often say to myself: what you think about, you bring

Choose soap, shampoo and other products for your bathroom only if you like them or not. Forget the price, just this once, and go for what makes you happy. A delicious fragrance can mean the difference between an ordinary shower and one that is heavenly.

If you are more a writer than a thinker, keep a gratitude journal and make it a habit to write what you like about your life every day, be it the first thing you do when you get up, during a break after your shower, or the gift you give yourself when you have had breakfast with the family and you have five minutes to yourself. The key to a happier life really appreciate what you already have.

drink plenty of water
Everyone knows drinking water moisturizes and refreshes us when we wake up, but we do not always remember to do so. If you enjoy your morning coffee, why not use it as a reward to be enjoyed once you have water? If you can drink water at room temperature with a squeeze of lemon in it, you will feel more alert within minutes.

Eat a breakfast high in protein
A nutrient-dense, concentrated protein first meal of the day open the way to healthier food choices throughout the day. You do not feel hungry when you walk out the door, so that you are much more likely to eat a meal that is best for you. It is the same principle that never go to the supermarket when you are really hungry.
