The Power of Morning and Evening Routines:
Simple morning and evening routines act as bookends that set the tone for happiness and reduced negative thought patterns throughout your day.
Morning routine calms the chaos:
Starting your day intentionally instead of reactively reduces anxiety and sets a positive trajectory. Even 10 minutes of consistent actions—making your bed, drinking water, brief movement—creates a sense of control that carries through your day.
Evening routine signals safety:
A consistent wind-down tells your nervous system it's time to rest. This reduces the rumination and worry that often intensify at night when your mind is less occupied.
Research shows that routine reduces decision fatigue, lowers cortisol, and creates predictability—all of which support wellbeing. You're not adding more to your plate; you're creating structure that makes everything else easier.
Start small: pick two morning actions and two evening actions. Consistency matters more than complexity.
Happy Monday- Have a great week!
