Wake up, have breakfast, do something to activate your body, drink water, do not do anything that requires you to be quiet.
If I’ve woken up after a bad night’s rest, I like to be a little more gentle on myself. Instead of a full workout, I’ll just do some yoga and allow myself to relax, and take it slower. If it’s late at night, I try to focus on doing the most important habits, such as brushing my teeth. I know that tomorrow morning I will appreciate my effort to take care of myself. Often, once I complete the most important habits, I’ll have found the energy to follow through with the rest of them. Ultimately, try to be kind to yourself. It’s ok if you miss part of your routine here or there, that doesn’t mean you’ve failed or given up. Just allow yourself to be human, and pick it up the next day! 🙂
Waking up, letting my dogs out immediately and stepping outside for cool air, come inside, start Fabulous and other apps (Shine, Intellect, Down Dog Yoga, Yousician) to start the day positively. I have more energy after I start with water, food, and even just just little yoga. For a fast day, food/water/a brief walk with the dogs then starting the day.
When I am extremely tired a good routine is putting the glass of water by my bed side with all my daily supliments (but D, zinc, magnesium, calcium and iron and B complexe) by my bedside table for the next morning. Waking up the next morning to take my morning water and supliments, blending a frozen banana blueberry peanut butter smoothie for Breakfast. Then drink my smoothie in bed whilst completing my coaching, thenleave my apartment and walk down the 6 floors and walk back up twice and that’s my tired routine. Make a green macha late with oat milk to get caffeine to get me working. Take a nap at lunch. Eat my premade lunch I made the weekend before, same with dinner. Go to bed by 9pm
I do not know the answer. What I do know is that I have learned over the past period of time to allow myself to relax when I’m tired, be active when I am not. I guess for me then, the possible answer would be when I’m tired a possible routine is a relaxed routine that will allow me being tired for a period of time rather than keep pushing myself to perform and have this tiredness increase to a tipping point.
Avoid any type of stimulant, being sugar, coffee or much TV. Do gentle exercise, take a warm shower or relaxing bath, read a little and go to bed early.
Take it easy. However you can still stay productive with small things such as..making ur bed, washing your face, having breakfast, get dressed + ready for ur day!
listen to your body. If it needs test it will force it. Concentration on diet and refulling, breathwork and some gentle stretching from bed if that’s where it needs to be. I mean depends what you need. You can do floor work for back pain etc. Just recharge
Do just what you can do! But always remember, if you do something that might be excausting you are doing this for yourself!
Take time for yourself. If you are tired emotionally find something that will bring you joy- a bit of gardening will help to take your mind of things. If you are tired physically, then do some meditation or yoga. Just choose a class that concentrates on energy restoration, stress relief or finding the balance. Have a bubble bath, turn some music, light the candles. Warm water will help to relax your muscles and music will help to feel happier
