How to start your mornings with intention

Starting your mornings with intention can set a positive tone for the rest of the day ahead. Begin by creating a morning routine that aligns with your goals and values, which may include exercise, meditation, journaling or eating a nutritious breakfast.

Here are tips for starting your morning with intentions that you can use to guide the rest of your day:

• Identify what is most important to you today
• Keep it clear and simple
• Focus on the positive

Consider setting a specific intention for the day, followed by wider intentions for the week, month, or even year. Reflect on what you want to achieve and the actions you’re going to take to reach your goals. Clearly define your intention to act as a guide during your daily activities. The intentions you set for yourself can influence the things you think, say and do, so they can act as an important foundation.
