set the tone.
Gently is fine.
You do not need a perfect routine for a good morning. A few slow, kind minutes before the day speeds up carry calm a long way.

Wake
slowly.
Before you reach for anything, stretch long under the covers. Wiggle your fingers and toes. Roll to your side and sit up in your own time.
Your body wakes in layers. Let each one arrive.

Let the
light in.
Open the curtains, stand by a window or step outside for a moment. Morning daylight helps your body know the day has begun.
Even a cloudy sky is bright enough to help.

The first
sip.
Make a warm drink and give it your full attention. Feel the warmth in your hands. Watch the steam. Notice the very first taste.
One mindful cup, then the day.

One kind
line.
Write a single sentence for the day ahead. A gentle intention, or one small thing you are looking forward to.
Today I will go at my own pace,
and enjoy lunch in the sun.
