Powerful Morning Motivation Boosts To Start Your Day.
Plus things you can do in the evening to set you up for the next day.
I’m not the kind of person who lives in la-la land and thinks the world is scattered with rose petals of love and happiness.
I know every day isn’t going to be wonderful but I also know that adding certain things to my morning routine will help me have the best day possible.
Today I want to share some of those things.
Before we start, I want to let you know that if you’re a paying subscriber, I’ve added a special printable download to the EMPOWERMENT ZONE to support today’s newsletter.
Okay, let’s get started, I have a lot of tips and techniques to share today.
Mindset tips for morning motivation
Intentions
A great way to start your day is to set your intentions for the day ahead.
What do you want to show up in your life?
Think about things that you have planned for the day. Do you want to set specific intentions around those events? For example, if you have a meeting planned for today, what do you want to achieve in that meeting, how do you want it to go? How do you want to feel?
Also, think about your goals and what you intend for today.
Law of Attraction
The following exercise is taken from The Law of Attraction Cards by Esther and Jerry Hicks (they’re very old but I love using them)
Try this…
Every morning for 30 days, begin your day by saying…
I intend to see… (say what you want to see)
I expect to see
No matter who I am with
No matter what I am doing
I intend to see that which I want
By doing this you will change the momentum of your life experience.

Super quick Morning EFT session
We want to keep this simple so that you don’t have complicated wording to follow. This way you are more likely to do it.
You can do it whilst the kettle boils, even whilst you’re sat on the toilet (sorry for toilet talk).
Say what you want for the day. Here’s an example. Say what you want.
Side of the hand - Today I’m tapping for a fantastic day. (This is your setup)
Top of the head: Fantastic day
Forehead: Fantastic day
Eyebrow: Fantastic day
Side of the eye: Fantastic day
Under the eye: Fantastic day
Under the nose: Fantastic day
Under the mouth: Fantastic day
Collarbone: Fantastic day
Side of the hand: Fantastic day
Repeat as many times as you want and use whatever words you want - Whatever you want to attract to your day.
Other words I often use…
Productive, successful, abundant, prosperous, healthy, happy, calm and relaxed, fun…
How to end your day for a great day tomorrow
I want to finish off with some tips to end your day in a way that sets you up for a great day tomorrow.
Visualize your ideal day
This can be done the night before once you’re settled in bed or in the morning.
With your eyes closed, imagine the day ahead exactly as you want it.
Keep things real. Well… sort of.
If you’ve got to get up and get the kids ready and take them to school, visualize that going really well just the way you like it.
If you’re heading off to work and have an important meeting, visualize it as you want it.
There are definitely huge benefits to visualizing your perfect life (big picture) that may not include some of the things you’ll be doing today.
The trick is to state your intention.
If you’re focusing on how you intend today to be, say, this is how I expect today to be.
If you’re visualizing your dream holiday, say this is what I intend for my dream holiday in (state when you want it).
This is my ideal home.
This is my ideal business…
If you struggle to get out of bed and struggle to get going in the morning. I want to recommend BOUNCE OUT OF BED (this is my referral link).
I haven’t personally used this audio from HYPNOSIS DOWNLOADS (but I have used many others and love this company).
I asked the Hypnosis Downloads team when to use this audio. Here’s what they said.
You can listen to it whenever you have time in your day, but I wouldn't recommend it directly before bed, as it does have a 'realerting' section at the end of the session. Rebekah Hall
All of the hypnosis downloads that I’ve had over the years are incredibly relaxing and they’ve really helped with what I’ve been using them for.
Also, this is not like those stage performances where the hypnotist gets you doing things and you have no control.
For example, if my dog needed to be let out whilst I was listening to the audio, I would still be aware of this and be able to get up and do what I needed to do.
Evening Tips For A Calm Start To The Next Day
These are some tips that personally help me.
Tidy up before bed (this is always a work in progress for me but I do usually make an effort and I’m always pleased I did the next morning).
Plan for the day ahead - Check the calendar, my to-do list, think about meals, etc
If I need anything for the next day, wherever possible I will prepare it or get it out ready.
Get the clothes I’m going to wear out ready.
Set my alarm
I keep a notebook beside my bed. This way if I get random thoughts keeping me awake, I write them down (evening brain dump).
Sometimes I will spray a calming pillow spray
Listen to something relaxing - Sometimes it’s a podcast and sometimes it’s a hypnosis audio.
If you have any tips of your own, please share them in the comments.
And here’s my question of the week - What is the first thing you like to drink in the morning?
I drink a full glass of water when I first get up but it’s my morning mug of tea that I really look forward to.
I hope you found something here you’ll add to your morning routine.
Let me know what you do to start your day well.
