Why I Stopped Checking My Phone First Thing In The Morning!
Morning Reflection- A Little Morning Sunshine
You know how much I love my mornings.
And the more I learn about our health and well-being, the more fascinated I become by how much nature has already provided us.
Take sunlight, for example.
Something so simple, so accessible, and completely free.
Research suggests that getting natural light early in the day can help regulate our circadian rhythm, our body’s internal clock that influences when we feel awake and when we feel ready to sleep.
In other words, how we start our mornings can influence how we feel throughout the day and even how well we sleep at night.
Pretty amazing when you think about it.
Long before alarm clocks, calendars, and endless notifications, our bodies were responding to the rising and setting of the sun.
And yet, here we are, often reaching for our phones before we’ve even looked outside.
I’m becoming more convinced that improving our well-being doesn’t always require adding something new.
Sometimes it’s about reconnecting with what’s already there.
A little sunlight. A little solitude. A little more appreciation for the simple things.
And maybe that’s another reason why I believe the morning is where the magic happens.
My morning routine is a way that helps me prime, nit just for the day but also for life. It’s a reminder of my own divinity. I use my morning routine to remind me who and what
I am really capable of.
Jeffrey’s Weekly Insight- I’ll Debate This All Day.
If there’s one thing I’ll advocate for until I’m blue in the face, it’s the importance of building a solid morning routine.
And yes, I’ll debate this all day.
Not because I’ve read about the benefits or listened to someone else talk about them.
Because I’ve experienced them firsthand.
And through the clients I’ve had the privilege of coaching, I’ve witnessed how honoring ourselves in the morning can begin to change the way we experience the rest of our lives.
More clarity. More self-awareness. More discipline. And perhaps most importantly, a greater sense of peace.
I’m not suggesting everyone needs to wake up at 5 AM or follow my routine.
But I genuinely believe that when we consistently dedicate a little time to ourselves before giving our attention to the rest of the world, something begins to shift.
Before you dial into the world, dial into yourself.
And here’s the thing.
You don’t have to take my word for it.
I’m actually willing to put this to the test.
A little morning experiment. Maybe even a challenge where we commit to a few simple self-care practices and see what changes.
No elaborate routines. No unrealistic expectations.
Just a willingness to show up for ourselves consistently.
Because sometimes the greatest changes in our lives begin with the simplest decisions.
Who’s willing to take the challenge with me?
Seriously. Let me know.
Stay the course.
A Simple Practice: The 7-Day Morning Reset
All right, let’s put this to the test.
For the next seven mornings, I challenge you to dedicate 15 minutes to yourself before diving into the world.
Nothing complicated.
1. Get some natural light. Step outside for a few minutes after waking, ideally within
the first hour. Take a few deep breaths and appreciate the morning.
2. Practice gratitude. Think of or write down three things you’re genuinely grateful for.
3. Enjoy a little solitude. Put the phone aside. Sit quietly, reflect, or simply be present.
That’s it.
No perfect routine. No pressure to wake up at 5 AM.
Just 15 intentional minutes to honour yourself.
At the end of seven days, ask yourself:
Has anything shifted in how I feel, think, or approach my day?
And if you’re willing to take the challenge, reply to this email and let me know.
I’d genuinely love to hear about your experience.
Seven mornings. Fifteen minutes. Let’s see what happens.
“Most people don’t need a new life.
They need a new way of seeing the life they already have.”
