Morning Routine

1. Start a Sadhana Practice

With a spiritual yoga practice, each and every sadhana is unique to the practitioner, which means you can tailor it to be exactly what you need to feel your best in the morning. To begin, make sure you are practicing in a space that feels sacred and inviting. Even something as simple as bringing in fresh flowers or lighting a candle can transform your living room or bedroom. Try incorporating asana, pranayama, and meditation to your sadhana practice. Try sticking to the same routine before switching to something new in order to truly feel the total benefits.

2. Make Tea

Homemade chai is actually very simple to make. The beauty of starting your day with this practice is that it awakens all of your senses (the smell while it simmers is intoxicating), while also forcing you to slow down. Mindfully choosing your ingredients, patiently standing by as the water boils, and then steeping the tea is a meditation in its own right. And, the best part, you get to enjoy the ritual of drinking homemade tea when you’re finished.

3. Journaling

Journaling is such a powerful morning practice that I often incorporate it into my sadhana practice. But, even on its own, journaling is a simple, always accessible form of ritual that will help you clear your mind for the day. Oftentimes as I journal I discover a mantra for my day, a simple word or phrase becomes my focus and intention behind everything I do. This type of clarity helps me to see the big picture as I face challenges during the day.

4. Drink Warm Water

Instead of making a cup of coffee, the first thing you reach for in the morning, choose warm water with lemon or lime instead. According to Ayurveda, the first thing you drink sets the entire tone for your day. By choosing warm citrus water you don’t just stimulate the gastrointestinal tract, but you also get a boost of vitamins and minerals from the lemon or lime, which are found to be beneficial for digestion as well. You can add local honey to lemon water or pure maple syrup to lime water for extra benefits, and a sweet start to your day.

5. Massage Your Body

There are, of course, a million different ways to do this and you’ll find one that speaks to you specifically as you start to research the variety of methods and modalities. Depending on how much time you have each morning, you can make this self-massage as quick or as decadent as you like. While a full body massage with oil is a beautiful ritual, not all of us will have time for this practice each and every day. Instead, opt for a simple face massage, paying special attention to the third eye and the ears. A foot massage is another great point of focus for your morning ritual as it helps to stimulate the entire body.

Personally, one of the most transformative practices I do each morning is taking a cold shower. Not only does this (really) wake you up, but it completely shifts your energy and increases your circulation. To help soften the “blow,” I cover my body in oil (like sesame or coconut) before stepping into the water. Even two minutes can pull you out of emotional blues and set yourself up for a beautiful day ahead

Save our planet

Every year we all make resolutions or plan some goals that we barely achieve for one reason to another. Year after year I wanted to make changes in my habits that I felt were not consistent with my way of thinking about the issues of environmental protection… but I didn’t know where to start. In the past years, after hearing a lot of apocalyptic news and others wake up calls I’ve gotten, I decided to start making changes not only for my health and own life but something significant to make a good impact on our planet and future generations. So I came up with this ambitious resolution: ‘To be part of the change and live a more sustainable life to save our planet’ so this meant doing many changes in my lifestyle. I’m conscious that there is a lot to do and sounds overwhelming, but I believe in everyday actions. I’m convinced that every action matters, so here is how I started all this journey and I want to share with you four small steps to begin:

1. Start questioning our habits

We are an overpopulated world with 7.6 billion human inhabitants on a planet with finite resources. We are very used to blame the government and the big industries for producing all this mess, but although they have the economic and political power, we also have part of this responsibility. We are all part of the problem, but the good news is that we can all be part of the solution. It is true that monopoly industries and even society have made us all believe that it is reasonable to do “certain things” or act in “certain ways,” but we DO have the power to make our own decisions in our daily acts. It is in our hands to make the difference with some adjustments in our habits, like stop consuming indiscriminately, rejecting disposable products, protecting our natural resources, start eating less meat, etc.

2. Be conscious of what we consume

Usually, we don’t think about the enormous impact that our purchase decisions have on the planet. But behind our consumption habits, significant problems are affecting the environment and life on earth. So we need to be aware of what issues we are promoting or what kind of practices we are financing, because all the unconscious consumption we make, make us part of this indiscriminate industry. Here are three industry examples which we should check carefully:

Disposable Plastic Industry: Our dependence on plastic packaging make us part of the oil exploitation and make us responsible for the deterioration of our oceans — “9 million tons of plastic waste ends up in the ocean every year”.

Fast Fashion: Our clothing collection to stay up-to-date with the latest trends every 52 ‘micro-seasons’ not even knowing who made our clothes — “The Fashion Industry is one of the most polluting industries causing environmental and human rights abuses.”

Meat consumption: Our uncontrolled appetite is causing animals being treated as objects for their massive exploitation — “Animal agriculture is the most destructive industry facing the planet today.”

3. Analyze and reduce our wast

Everything we consume has an impact and implies a commitment

Everything we consume generates a waste, be it organic, recyclable, or reusable, or worst case scenario, a material that last to biodegrade itself some hundreds of years. We are so accustomed to thinking that generating waste is normal that the idea of a zero waste life seems idealistic. Right now, there is garbage everywhere, even if we can’t see it around us, thanks to the effective garbage collection system of the cities that makes us feel that all the waste we place in a plastic bag will magically disappear. But it’s not like that; the garbage stays on our planet for a very long time; probably on landfills, or worse, in the ocean and rivers, or even worst, in the stomachs and the bodies of animals. So we can analyze our trash by asking ourselves:

Where does it come from?

How can we avoid it?

Where will it end up?

Starting to make the waste matter more responsible, will make us question the amount and type of waste we generate and we will be more critical in every act of consumption. We need to make our trash our responsibility, and not because we throw it away it will be someone else’s responsibility.

4. Spread the word

There is a lot of lack of information about sustainable living and environmental issues, so to share information about taking care of our planet is a simple and effective way to multiply our positive impact. Communicate everything we learn about the earth and what changes we are making to protect it. Sharing those experiences encourages other people and help to promote these initiatives making the Sustainable Lifestyle Movement stronger.

“If there is awareness we can find the solution.”

I think it is in everyone’s hands to start changing the fateful course of our planet earth. So it’s time to question every decision we make, wonder our habits and take action in every aspect of our lifestyle. We need to stop treating the planet as if we had a spare one. Let’s not make our world a place where we can barely survive, but a world where we can progress and prosper. And we can do it with the power of the collective movement, it means, all synchronized by the same cause! Save our planet earth!

Every day my work becomes more about discovering and less about reaching a destination. While working, the process changes my beliefs and myself. I work in order to excavate myself, and to be different from yesterday. - yeesookyung
