taking my mornings back

I am taking back my mornings.  I am choosing to show up the way that makes my body feel good.  I am choosing movement and meditation over scrolling through social media.  I am cooking myself breakfast and writing by twinkle light.  I am letting all of my thoughts and feelings spill onto the page, and it feels so good.  

I dream of one day being able to have entire days like this.  Freedom to choose what I want to do.  But until that moment I am starting off this way.  When the world is quiet I can here my inner voice.  I can hone in on my intuition.  I can recognize where I am.  

When I choose to say yes to me I feel so good.  Movement and exercise brings the biggest smile to my face.  I feel alive, ready, focused.  There is no reason not to feel this way every single day!  Recently I have been hitting the snooze button, over and over again.  Rushing to get ready.  Rushing to work.  Showing up late.  It is in these moments I am not my best self.  Frustrated, irritable, unhappy. 

I know I do not want to live that way.  I know the choice is in my hands.  So I am taking my morning back.  I am choosing me.  I am showing up the way I wish the rest of my days were and I am setting the tone.  In order to make something happen you need to make it happen yourself.  And I am doing just that.  

I am taking my mornings back
I am choosing me
I am slowing down
I am zoning in
I am focusing on what makes me happy, what makes me smile
Yes, I am taking my mornings back

How about you?
