Morning Ritual

[Blueshark]

At the moment, I do not have a morning ritual. I wake up, shower, get dressed and leave.

I would like to take things slower, and incorporate good habits into my morning ritual.

Perhaps this may be a raw shake, meditation, tea, yoga etc. I am not sure yet.

What sort of morning ritual do you have?

I spend a few minutes before getting out of bed sending thoughts of health to certain people. I am concentrating on Feline of the TVTs at present. I send them just before going to sleep as well. Sometimes, I'll do this if I wake up too early. Then I'll go back to sleep. Once I get up I patrol the bedroom looking for moths.

Thats bloody eccentric. I was hoping for a more practical response.

[Gliondrach]

Well, it's what I do. :slappy:

I wanted to incorporate an Ayurvedic oil massage into my mornings. It didn't last long. Kinda messy, and no real proper space on the boat to do it in.

[Blueshark]

You would have to a willing partner, right? I live alone - so massage is not really an option for me.

[Bowwowmeow]

Oh no I had no partner. It's not hard to massage most of yourself. You'll need something to get your back with is all. I used a long handled wooden spoon. I think you can get gadgets designed for self back massage though.

The nice part is the way you start, by pouring a thin stream of oil on your forehead. It's supposed to be soothing, and it does seem to be.

I like morning rituals better in the summertime, when sunrise feels like sunrise.
