Ideas for Morning and Evening Routines
As humans, we thrive on schedules and a lot of times for events. For me personally, I love having morning and evening routines, as it helps me realize what is the current day of the week, and what I need to get done within that day. Today on Inspired by Diane, I will be telling you all some ideas I have for you for your morning and evening routines. I think it is extremely important to invest in yourself, and the best way to invest in yourself is to have a morning and/or evening routine that best fits you and your lifestyle. Let's get started!
Morning Routine Ideas
These ideas are versatile not only for the weekdays, but also the weekends.
Free write in your journal for 5 minutes about anything
Stretch
Make yourself some sort of caffeine, whether it would be coffee or tea
Write out a to-do list of what you have to do that day
Prep your lunches and snacks for that day, or the next few days
Do a 5-10 minute yoga flow, or just 5-10 minutes of deep breathing exercises
Make yourself a smoothie
Take a walk around your neighborhood — enjoy the fresh air
Evening Routine Ideas
Most of these evening rituals are ones I include in my evening routine, as they help me wind down from the day I had & prep me for the day to come.
Prep your clothes for the next day (makes the following morning easier)
Wash your face with a facial cleanser
Do an evening skincare routine
Clean your space, so you don't have to wake up to mess
Get some fresh air outside
Do some sort of activity to refuel you (a hobby, watching tv, playing a game, etc)
Make yourself a calming drink, like chamomile tea
Moisturize your hands + feet so that they are fully moisturized when you wake up
If I am feeling up to it — writing a to-do list for the following day, so you know what's coming up
