Starting point is 00:00:28 Thanks so much for listening, and I hope you have a fantastic day. Good morning, everyone, and welcome to wake me up. The podcast, Where Morning People Are Made. I'm your host, Tyler. Thanks for tuning in and joining me here this morning. I'm so glad to have you. This morning routine will help you find some energy. If you didn't sleep well, or if you're just feeling a bit off,
Starting point is 00:01:01 now let's go ahead and get started. As always, we'll take the next few minutes just to get out of bed. All you need to do is follow along with my voice. We'll keep things nice and simple. Start by opening your eyes and try to soak in a little bit of that morning light, even if it's a bit bright at first. That's probably the best thing you can do to help yourself wake up. Now let's take a couple of breaths together.
Starting point is 00:01:44 So inhale, hold at the top and then exhale one more inhale hold and exhale now bend your knees and bring them up to your chest and wrap your arms around your shins like you're rolled up tucked into a little ball and just hang out here for a minute it's a nice gentle stretch and it also puts your legs above your heart and this now naturally increases your heart rate, because your heart has to pump blood up now. This is a nice little trick because it doesn't really require any effort, but it still wakes you up. And if you've been here before, then you know me. I like to do things the easy way. So maybe you're feeling a little tired this morning. Maybe you didn't sleep well or you just went to bed too late.
Starting point is 00:02:57 Perhaps you're not feeling at your best health-wise, or maybe you're a little burnt out on life. Whatever it is for you, don't worry. Our bodies are energy-storing and producing machines. That doesn't mean we treat them poorly and we overwork them. But it does mean that they will turn on and be effective if we give them what they need. So on that note, let go of your legs.
Starting point is 00:03:27 let them go out long once again and just take a big stretch here in bed anything that feels good to you I like to reach for all four corners of my bed but you do whatever you like and when you finish taking that stretch take a deep inhale and as you exhale roll over in bed
Starting point is 00:04:00 place your feet on the ground and make your way to standing up Thank you.
