A Morning Routine to Improve Health and Beauty
Our lives can be hectic and chaotic, but a healthy morning routine can help keep you calm throughout the day while maintaining your beautiful glow. A morning beauty routine is important for proper care of your skin and hair, but a routine that prepares you mentally is just as vital, if not more so. Think about your life and choose your daily habits wisely to improve your health and beauty.
Lose the Snooze
As tempting as it is to hit that good old snooze button a couple times for some extra shut-eye, the rushed pace you will then have to keep to get ready on time will only leave you in a frantic and panicked state. Set your alarm so that you can get out of bed and have plenty of time to prepare for the day at a relaxing pace. Do as much as you can to prepare the night before such as:
- Choose and layout your wardrobe, including all accessories like jewelry and shoes.
- Prepare breakfast the night before by having fruit cut up and even cereal or smoothie ingredients pre-measured.
- Gather the kids' school items and lunches.
- Prepare a to-do list of tasks that must be completed the next day so you don’t have to waste time or energy worrying that you have forgotten something.
Ditch the Devices
The average American adult spends 11 hours staring at device screens. Do not start that clock before you even get out of bed. Too often the information we receive via social media and news feeds is depressing and negative, which is an awful way to start the day.
Stretch to Success
Ease your way into the day by preparing your body mentally and physically. Start with some deep breathing and meditation. Think about five things for which you are grateful to steer your mindset on a positive path. Incorporate some yoga or stretching to warm your muscles and start the day standing tall.
Embrace Nature
Whenever possible, prepare your body outside where you can get some early morning sun and do some grounding. Practicing your meditation, deep breathing, and stretching while standing in the grass with bare feet has many benefits.
Visualize Your Day
Mentally walk through your day and determine what you need to accomplish, and then visualize these tasks in a positive light. What will happen for them to be optimally completed? Do not let negative thoughts steer the visualization. You can consider the “what-ifs” as a means of establishing contingency plans, but then return to the idea that your goals will be met without a hitch.
Complete Your Cleanse
You can think about your day as you finish your morning beauty routine. If you do a thorough facial scrub the night before, you can save time and be kind to your skin by using a gentle cleanser in the morning. Protect your skin and maintain that youthful glow with a great moisturizer like SIBU’s Nourishing Face Cream.
Eat a Healthy Breakfast
Your morning meal should be your biggest, but this does not mean filling up on carb-loaded waffles and greasy meats. Incorporate superfoods into your breakfast like avocado, kale, and star fruit. A low-fat protein-packed egg scramble with tofu, kale, and chia seeds will fill you up, but not weigh you down. You can also get a full-body boost from a supplement of sea buckthorn berry.
A healthy morning routine does not have to be complicated. By taking some time for yourself, you may find that you are better able to handle the daily chaos, and you will feel healthier, more confident, and more beautiful. Purchasing the health- and beauty-enhancing products developed by SIBU is a marvelous investment in your morning beauty routine and an excellent addition to your daily habits to improve your daily life.
