About this listen
If your mornings feel rushed, chaotic, or like you’re already behind before the day even starts—you’re not imagining it.
The way you begin your day has a direct impact on your nervous system, your stress levels, and your capacity to stay grounded.
In this episode, I’m sharing 5 simple, science-backed morning rituals that have transformed the way I move through my day.
These practices aren’t about rigid routines or hustle—they’re about working with your physiology so your mornings (and your nervous system) set you up for calm focus instead of chronic stress.
You’ll learn:
🔹 Why those first 60 minutes after waking are so powerful for your brain and body
🔹 The neuroscience behind light exposure, hydration, movement, and stillness in regulating stress
🔹 How to shift your mornings out of survival mode and into a state of safety and resilience
🔹 Practical ways to protect your energy before email, news, or notifications hijack your system
Think of these rituals as tools, not rules. Even two minutes of intentional practice can change how your day feels.
🎧 Listen now to start rewiring your mornings—because the way you begin isn’t just about the start of your day. It’s how you train your body to live.
