What’s the first thing you do when you wake up? It may be checking your phone…I’m guilty too, but trying to wait until I’m actually fully awake! So what do I do? Follow along in this post~

1. When trying not to look at my phone first thing I’ll either think about what I’m grateful for, let myself lay and slowly wake up, read a page from my devotion, or simple pet my dog!

2. Once I’m out of bed I always make sure to drink at least 1 full glass of water. Super important for rehydrating our bodies as well as getting our digestive system going.

3. Next I’ll take my vitamins/supplements. I have a small variety I take to help control my PCOS. One of my favorite vitamins I’ve been taking since July now is Ritual. They’re transparent with their ingredients and create a vitamin with all the nutrients we as women truly need and miss out on! Want to check em out?!

4. Along with my vitamins I’ll make a cup of herbal tea(turmeric ginger) or hot water with lemon and add in my collagen. I use Further Food and have been for about 2 years now. They are a women owned company and have a variety of wellness products. You can use RELISHINGNUTRITION10 if you want to try it for yourself!

5. Finally…Breakfast Time! I really try to listen to my body to see just how hungry I am. Each day is different, sometimes I’m ready to eat as soon as I wake up and other times I’m not hungry until 9am. If I have to go before I’m ready to eat I’ll bring a bar and some fruit for the road.

Mornings are my favorite time of the day. I always make sure to make time for myself, even when I’m extra busy or heading to an early workout I’ll still make sure to make time for my daily routine-even if it means bringing my collagen tea to-go! Hope this helps bring motivation to your morning!
