Motivation Monday: Good Morn'

 Start your week, Monday and morning off right! Try these tips for a healthier morning.
  • Avoid the snooze button: While tempting, pressing the snooze button doesn't extend your sleep; once interrupted, your quality of sleep isn't the same.  
  • Stretch: Just try 10 minutes! Not just an easy way to energize your morning but also a method to ease tension.
  • Make your bed: A clean space means a clear mind, and it will be nice to come home to after a long day at work. 
  • Go for a quick run: Running in the morning can save you a lot of time after work, clear your mind, and kick-start your metabolism.
  • Turn on the tunes: It sounds simple, but listening to your favorite song is one of the easiest ways to gear you up for the rest of the day. 
  • Eat breakfast: Try one of these 41 breakfast ideas for simple, healthy meals.
  • Drink water: Starting your day with water will help wake you up, kick-start your metabolism, and hydrate your body.
  • Pack healthy snacks: Packing healthy snacks will ward off hunger and prevent you from reaching for that 3 p.m. bag of chips.
  • Moisturize: Moisturizing after your morning shower will lock in moisture, preventing itchy, dry skin, especially in the Winter.
  • Smile: Before you head out the door, smile! 
Or, you could just listen to the opening of American Dad...data proven to enhance any mood.
