8 Morning Routine Tips for a Great Day

As soon as you wake up, make your bed. This small, simple habit will set the tone for the rest of your day. Check off this task to create a snowball effect for the rest of your morning routine. 

Some people like to leave their phone outside of their room entirely, while others use it as an alarm. In both cases, throwing your phone on "airplane mode" before going to sleep will prevent you from checking your notifications and emails first thing in the morning. Give yourself time to wake up and take care of your business to feel ready before you switch off airplane mode and to start your “virtual day.” 

A little multitasking goes a long way. To rinse off any allergens or nighttime oil build up, wash your face in the morning with Doctor D. Schwab Herbal Foam Cleanser and towel dry. Follow with the spray on  Doctor D. Schwab Herbal Toner to refresh, hydrate, and balance skin’s pH. While the toner is drying, brush your teeth or hair to save time during your morning skincare routine. 

To help purify your skin and body first thing in the morning, drink warm lemon water. It aids in digestion and promotes detoxification, and the Vitamin C in lemon may help reduce wrinkles and the appearance of aging.

Carve out some space in the morning where you won’t be interrupted, or before anyone in your home is awake for private, contemplative time first thing in the morning to meditate, pray, journal, or anyway you’d like to pause and reflect. This time will set the tone for the rest of your day. There are numerous benefits and studies linked to meditation (including reduced premature aging in skin). Journaling in the morning can also shift your day, whether you write out a schedule, make a gratitude list, or simply release and organize your thoughts on paper rather than taking them into the day with you.

Take a walk, stretch, or workout first thing. You’ll get your exercise out of the way, and remember, it doesn’t have to be complicated - dance around to your favorite music! Find a movement that inspires both your mind and mind. Be sure to toss your Doctor D. Schwab Invisible Glove™ Hand Sanitizer in your gym bag to stay sanitized and protected from germs if you head out to the gym or a studio.

Take special care to fuel your body and brain in the morning for energy to perform during the day. Plus, your skin will shine brighter if you provide it with the best nutrients!
