Episode description

Today, let's explore the vast benefits of getting our juices flowing first thing in the morning. Explore today's full session at https://intentioninspired.com/morning6 💪 MICRO CHALLENGE Starting tomorrow, get up just five minutes earlier than usual. If you usually wake up at 7:00 A.M., set your alarm for 6:55 instead. Eventually, if you keep moving your wake-up time five minutes earlier every week, you'll find a time that works for you. 😅  PRO TIPS Keep your exercise routines short, simple, and fun! This is especially important in the beginning when we first start playing with new routine ingredients. Done is better than perfect. There's nothing wrong with push-ups, squats, jumping jacks, or just standing up beside your bed and getting in some stretches. Keep your workouts fluid, day-to-day, and throughout your life. Enjoy the feeling of accomplishment an early morning sweat brings. Take your workout "win" into the rest of your day. 💧 REHYDRATE FIRST THING We human beings are made of up to 60 percent of water. The cells in our brain are mostly water, too. In fact, water makes up about 73 percent of our noodle! During 8 hours of sleep, we lose an average of 200 milliliters of water—nearly 7 cups!  So rehydrating soon after waking up is a simple and helpful practice to include in our morning routine's stack of healthy habits. 🤑 INVEST IN YOURSELF Sticking to an exercise routine doesn't always come so easy. The best investment is the investment in yourself. Put your money where your values are. Set stakes that inspire you to show up. Consider working with a personal trainer. 🍫 REWARD YOURSELF Any effective reward system can immediately boost inspired action! What kind of exercise reward(s) will inspire you to stick to your goals? Consider the exercise a reward in itself! 👯 COMMUNITY CONVERSATION How about you? What is one way you enjoy rewarding yourself for exercising?
