Thanks so much for listening, and I hope you have a fantastic day. Good morning and welcome to Wake Me Up, the podcast where morning people are made. If you've ever become bored with the routine and repetition of life, this episode is for you. Today, we'll go through a refreshing morning routine designed to help you see the magic in the monotony of life. Now, on that note, today is a beautiful day. Let's get it started and let's go win it. As you wake up this morning, you can just listen to my voice. We're all going to wake up in our own way, but we'll do it together.

So open your eyes if they're not already. Enjoy some of that morning light. Roll onto your back and place your hands on your chest. Feel that rise and fall as you take a few deep breaths. And maybe you're feeling a desire to linger in bed a little bit longer today. Because you're not excited about what lies ahead. And that's okay. That's totally normal. We all get a little tired of the day-to-day grind of life from time to time.

There's no need to beat yourself up about that. If that's been bothering you lately, you can try to mix things up a little bit. And it doesn't have to be a lot. Treat yourself to a break in the middle of the day and go for a walk. Try a new type of food. Or maybe call a friend you haven't chatted with in a while. The truth is, monotony exists in all of our lives every day.

Sometimes there may be a little more than others, but let's face it, our lives don't change that much from day to day. So the feeling of boredom, the getting tired of a routine, is just an illusion of the mind most of the time. And little things like I mentioned before, those can give the taste of freshness that you're looking for. Now what do you say we go ahead and get moving? You can begin to gently wake your body up

just by making some gentle movements. You can just start in the hands and feet, and as it feels good, you can let it spread. Now take a deep breath and stretch for all four corners of your bed and just reach all the way out. Now you can relax and take a deep breath again. And as you exhale, roll over in bed, place your feet on the ground and stand up.
