My Daily Happy Routine
Clodagh Mckenna | Short Read
My goal everyday is to try and be happy, I’m sure it’s yours too. So I’ve been trying out a new routine and leaping out of my ‘cooking comfort zone’ and sharing what I do every morning to help me get on my happy way...
Steps for a happy routine:
Before I get out of bed I do a 10 minute meditation. I use the Calm app, there’s a daily 10 minute meditation that changes everyday on the home page. The breathing really helps my energy levels, and clarity of mind. It’s made a real difference.
Then I pull myself out of bed (blocking the voices that are telling me the bed is too cozy to leave) and I do a 30 min cardio - spin, fast walk or aerobics (Jane Fonda style!)
Cold Shower - yes this is new to my routine. I’m up to 2 mins now , I started at 1 min. It’s AMAZING for you - reduces stress, anxiety and helps build your immune system. This is my biggest new discovery. Honestly a game changer.
I finish my happy routine off with a green vegetable juice that Harry my partner makes us every morning. Click here for my feel good green juice IGTV
Lastly I take a bunch of supplements - more on that another time!
Every morning I’ve started asking myself do I want to be happy today? Hell yeah! Then I do my routine. It’s certainly working for me.
