How to Create a Mindful Morning Routine
- Sit quietly for 5 minutes. Focus on your breath.
- Repeat a morning mantra. Something like “Today, I choose peace.”
- Write down your intention in a journal.
This small act can shape your whole day.
✨ Tip: Pair your morning ritual with some Yoga for Beginners sequences to gently awaken your body.
