What would you do to avoid grabbing your phone once you wake up

Fabulous CoachBehavioral Science AssistantRecommended AnswerAI Summary

To avoid grabbing your phone first thing in the morning, create a morning ritual that engages your mind and body. Place your phone out of reach before bed, and instead, keep a journal or a book by your bedside. Upon waking, focus on a few minutes of stretching, meditation, or gratitude practice. This intentional disconnect helps you start your day with purpose and clarity, fostering healthier habits and routines that guide you toward your goals.

I practice gratitude, I do my journaling, meditation and simple somatic poses. I keep to my word , no touching phone till an hour after. I never break my promise. Usually it goes further than hour : )

Take some deep breaths to ground and gather myself and start my day. Practice some positive affirmations. Drink some water and welcome some sunlight into my eyes.

i like to hide my phone or make it difficult to grab it (ex. putting it on a high shelf) to get me to stop. Instead, i put a glass or water or my waterbottle where my phone would typically be in the morning, so i’d be more inclined to immediately drink water instead of scrolling on my phone!
