Your morning sets the mood for the rest of the day. While a cup of coffee can always help you perk up, you might be looking for other ways to feel energized in the early hours. The guide below offers some ideas. 

How to Kickstart Your Morning in a Positive Way

1. Wake Up Early

If you're the kind of person who presses the snooze button several times to sneak a little more sleep, this might require an adjustment period. However, aside from letting you more calmly get ready in the morning, waking up early also gives you free time to spend tidying up, reading, or just taking in the morning. This can help you feel more productive early on and help you focus throughout your day.

2. Have Water First

Drinking a glass of water in the morning is a quick way to rehydrate the body and kickstart your metabolism. Try adding a slice of lemon. This citrus fruit is rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants; it supports your liver, kidneys, skin, and digestive health. 

3. Move Your Body

Get active in the morning. Whether you prefer to jog, perform yoga, or follow a workout video, exercising early in the morning can jumpstart your metabolism and have you feeling body-positive throughout the day. In addition, physical activity boosts endorphins in your brain, improving your mood.

4. "Eat the Frog"

This figurative expression means that you should tackle tasks you find unpleasant early in the morning. It's easy for a day to feel daunting when big projects loom over you. It might take equal parts determination and coffee, but knocking out your hardest to-do list item first will mean that you can feel successful, motivated, and unstoppable for the rest of the day.

5. Eat a Satisfying Breakfast

Arguably dubbed the "most important meal of the day," breakfast boosts energy levels and alertness. Take your time to enjoy a satisfying breakfast. By waking up early, you can even find an opportunity to hit up your favorite coffee shop—for a delicious cup of joe or some matcha tea and a breakfast sandwich or muffin.
