Wake Up With Izzy Utterson

Your morning routine is essential as a result of your mind is in theta-alpha frequency on waking, making it extremely vulnerable to new programming and constructive solutions. Morning cortisol ranges are additionally naturally elevated, which boosts alertness and psychological readability for intention practice- so I LOVE my routine that units me as much as set up constructive neural pathways that take me by means of the day.

6 AM

I get up and use Mel Robbins’ 5-4-3-2-1 technique to stand up on the primary alarm (one thing I’ve actually needed to be taught to do will not be hit snooze). Throughout winter, I exploit a Hatch alarm clock, which has been a sport changer. 

The primary 5 minutes of the day, when our brains are in theta-alpha, are important, so I don’t contact my telephone, as a substitute, I hit play on a constructive affirmations playlist and go about preparing. This reinforces constructive self-concept and self-image.

RITUALS

I then dry brush utilizing my Skinny Confidential Dry Brush earlier than showering. That is wonderful for lymphatic drainage and mild exfoliation to begin the day and get every thing shifting! 

After this, I’ll make my loaded morning water, a.okay.a Lauryn’s SEXY WATER, my final behavior stack utilizing the Magnificence Salt. I take another dietary supplements with this, after which I’ll make a matcha- I’ve changed espresso with Matcha and a decaf mushroom mix to scale back my anxiousness and set me up for the day.

EXERCISE

My exercises then are both a reformer class or weight coaching, a protracted stroll or considered one of Pilates By Bryony’s workouts- UNREAL! Since changing HIIT and cardio with resistance and weights, my physique has reworked.

BREAKFAST

After my exercise, I’ll head dwelling to make a high-protein breakfast- both a loaded yogurt bowl with Kind protein powder or eggs, smoked salmon and avocado on sourdough. I are inclined to go for related meals so I can plan forward.

SKINCARE + MAKEUP

Earlier than doing my skincare and make-up for the day, I’ll at all times use both my TSC Ice Curler, Face Massager or Mint Curler (typically all three relying on the degrees of puffiness haha) earlier than doing my easy morning skincare and *at all times* making use of my SPF. I really like TSC’s as a result of it comprises caffeine, so not solely does it give me a beautiful glow, however I at all times really feel like I look a lot extra awake and refreshed. Since utilizing SPF day by day, I’ve seen such a constructive shift in my pores and skin’s general texture and tone.

DRESSING WITH INTENTION

I then dress with intention, who do I wish to be and the way do I wish to present up at the moment? I at all times take into consideration the dream model of me and ask myself “Would she put on this?” I attempt to present up because the dream me at the very least as soon as a day and dressing is essentially the most enjoyable manner exterior of routine!

WORK

I begin my work day round 9am, which is normally a bunch of conferences, planning occasions or creating content material, which I really like. My morning routine units me up so nicely for all the chaos, as no day is ever the identical!
