Sunlight signals your body to wake up, boosts mood-enhancing serotonin, and makes you feel more alert.
Move Your Body
You don’t need an intense workout to reap the benefits of morning movement.
Stretching, yoga, or even a short walk gets your blood flowing and strengthens your muscles.

Set a Morning Intention
Starting the day with a clear intention helps create focus and motivation.
This could be a simple phrase, a gratitude practice, or a specific goal for the day.
Writing it down or saying it aloud reinforces a positive mindset and makes you more likely to follow through.
