Wake Up With Izzy Utterson
Your morning routine is essential as a result of your mind is in theta-alpha frequency on waking, making it extremely vulnerable to new programming and optimistic ideas. Morning cortisol ranges are additionally naturally elevated, which boosts alertness and psychological readability for intention practice- so I LOVE my routine that units me as much as set up optimistic neural pathways that take me by the day.
6 AM
I get up and use Mel Robbins’ 5-4-3-2-1 methodology to rise up on the primary alarm (one thing I’ve actually needed to be taught to do shouldn’t be hit snooze). Throughout winter, I exploit a Hatch alarm clock, which has been a recreation changer.
The primary 5 minutes of the day, when our brains are in theta-alpha, are important, so I don’t contact my telephone, as a substitute, I hit play on a optimistic affirmations playlist and go about preparing. This reinforces optimistic self-concept and self-image.
RITUALS
I then dry brush utilizing my Skinny Confidential Dry Brush earlier than showering. That is wonderful for lymphatic drainage and mild exfoliation to start out the day and get all the pieces transferring!
After this, I’ll make my loaded morning water, a.ok.a Lauryn’s SEXY WATER, my final behavior stack utilizing the Magnificence Salt. I take every other dietary supplements with this, after which I’ll make a matcha- I’ve changed espresso with Matcha and a decaf mushroom mix to scale back my anxiousness and set me up for the day.
EXERCISE
My exercises then are both a reformer class or weight coaching, a protracted stroll or certainly one of Pilates By Bryony’s workouts- UNREAL! Since changing HIIT and cardio with resistance and weights, my physique has remodeled.
BREAKFAST
After my exercise, I’ll head dwelling to make a high-protein breakfast- both a loaded yogurt bowl with Type protein powder or eggs, smoked salmon and avocado on sourdough. I are inclined to go for related meals so I can plan forward.
SKINCARE + MAKEUP
Earlier than doing my skincare and make-up for the day, I’ll all the time use both my TSC Ice Curler, Face Massager or Mint Curler (generally all three relying on the degrees of puffiness haha) earlier than doing my easy morning skincare and *all the time* making use of my SPF. I like TSC’s as a result of it incorporates caffeine, so not solely does it give me a stunning glow, however I all the time really feel like I look a lot extra awake and refreshed. Since utilizing SPF every day, I’ve observed such a optimistic shift in my pores and skin’s total texture and tone.
DRESSING WITH INTENTION
I then dress with intention, who do I wish to be and the way do I wish to present up right now? I all the time take into consideration the dream model of me and ask myself “Would she put on this?” I attempt to present up because the dream me not less than as soon as a day and dressing is probably the most enjoyable method outdoors of routine!
WORK
I begin my work day round 9am, which is normally a bunch of conferences, planning occasions or creating content material, which I like. My morning routine units me up so nicely for all the chaos, as no day is ever the identical!
