5 Ways to Start the Morning off Right


I'm not an expert nor am I telling how to start your morning; these examples are how I start my morning. I find that these things get my day started on a good note and I am much more energized throughout the day. Also drinking enough water keeps you hydrated and it might help with tiredness!

1. Exercising:
Exercising is a great way to start the day. It's so motivating and I enjoy it; I have so much energy during the day because of it! I usually eat breakfast after I exercise. But I make sure to eat something simple before the gym. For example, it can be a banana, a nutrition/ protein bar, an applesauce, or some toast with jelly.

2. Writing in a journal:
Using a journal is something I recently started doing. It's very helpful for me to write down all my ideas and plans. This keeps me organized and its easy to remember!

3. Eating breakfast:
This really is the most important meal of the day. It's fuel to help assist you, in getting the day started. Unless you're like me and you exercise first thing in morning.

4. Breathing exercises:
For me I like to take a few minutes to just breathe in and out. It helps me to concentrate and focus on the things I need and want to accomplish.

5. Self motivation:
I like to tell myself that today is going to be a good day. Sometimes when I'm not in the mood first thing in the morning, my day tends to go that way. So I am grateful to be here, so I try to think/be positive!
I hope you enjoyed reading, what are some ways you like to start the morning?

    Lists like this make me happy! Getting started with my routine always helps, even just applying makeup I find pretty calming. I try not to get caught up in negative thoughts if I wake up tired because you're right-it makes everything worse! I need to get back into journal writing, it's a total therapy!

      I've started to realize that if you wake up in a positive mood, with a positive mindset you'll have a good day.

Helpful Posts/Sites For Bloggers

Being a blogger is not easy at all, whether it's a hobby or a job. Every blogger works so hard to put out quality work. But sometimes it can be a struggle. While in a blogging rut I came across a lot of posts that have helped me gain confidence. These posts also helped me realize my creativity; all I needed to do was use my noggin! But before you click on the links below, I'm going to explain what these links mean to me. I don't want to bore you but I'm hoping these will help you too.   Everytime I get into a blogging rut I always look at my blog design. Thinking that the design I have is always the problem, I go and I spend money to change it. In reality the major problem was myself. Now don't get me wrong, designs I've had were beautiful it just wasn't for me. During my long "break" or breakdown I did a lot of searching. I'm pretty sure you all heard of Etsy, am I right? This is where I found two shops that have helped me tremendous...

My Top 5 Current Beauty Favorites!

  I'm not one who has a lot of favorite products, but when I do it's worth sharing. Call me boring, but I'm someone who follows all the trends. Half of the time I don't even buy products that are "most known" or "popular". At the moment I have a handful of products I'm really loving. I'm a picky person when it comes to a lot of things, but these products are great to use. If you are on a budget these products are very affordable and they definitely don't disappoint!   Swissco Detangle Brush I love this detangler brush, it works great on my hair. Although I found this at Marshalls you can find online as well. Both prices are $6! That's very affordable in my opinion, compared to brushes that cost double. You can use this on wet and dry hair. I've tried both and it works very good. When it's time to twist or braid my hair I will use this brush. Most importantly I will use this brush before washing my hair and during th...

E.l.f. Eye Brushes

Although this haul is very small, I just wanted to share with you what I brought. I decided to buy brushes, because I needed them more! The first brushes I were eco-friendly and were really good, but their were more face brushes, then eye brushes. So that wasn't really helpful to me. It was only one eye shadow brush. I rarely shop online, I always go to the store. But I was bored one day and I guess this is what happened! I am really excited to try these brushes! I also brought some things from BH cosmetics, but that's for another post! Eye Shadow Brush The eye shadow brush is supposed to help apply the eye shadow evenly and make it easier. This sounds good, because the brushes I used in the past were tough and hard. It seemed like I had to put a lot of eye shadow on, before it actually showed up on my eyes. Blending Eye Brush This brush is supposed to blend the eye shadows, while softening dramatic edges and lines. This is really good, because before I h...
