156. 5 Morning Routines: Will You Fill Your Cup Today?

Author: Heidi Fitzsimmons - Inspirational Writer & Podcaster May 24, 2026 Duration: 15:29
Hello, beautiful! Last week we had our pivot, our moment to just be — the permission slip many of us needed to just … breathe.   Did you take that opportunity? I hope so! Maybe you didn’t do it three times a day, or even every day — heck, I’d be happy if you just did it once last week, right after listening.   You gave yourself a great big hug and then went and did some weeding. HA — that’s essentially what I did.   Well, my patio project that I think is going to last the ENTIRE summer … but that conversation is for another day.   So with the realization of where we are with the calendar glaring down my neck — is that even the right expression?? — I thought THIS is the perfect opportunity to touch on morning routines.   ICK — I heard that grumble in the back.   Don’t hit stop, wait, wait — I promise this isn’t going to be some lecture.   AND this will help with making us feel better.   So if you’re ready for that refresh button — or maybe just a reminder of how wonderful a morning routine can be for a happy soul — then grab that cup of tea, a cozy blanket, your Dream Your Dreams workbook from my Etsy boutique, snuggle in, and let’s lean IN to feeling fabulous.   Wellness is a decision. And that sounds almost too simple, right?   Like one of those motivational poster quotes that makes you roll your eyes a little. But stay with me here, because I think there’s something really powerful in that simplicity.   When we choose wellness each day — even in the smallest ways — we’re giving ourselves the gift of energy, clarity, and joy.   And the beautiful thing? It doesn’t have to look perfect. It doesn’t have to be Instagram-worthy.   It just has to be intentional.   Today I’m not giving you a to-do list.   I’m giving you an invitation. A menu of possibilities.   You take what fits, you leave what doesn’t, and you trust yourself to know the difference.   You’ll Learn: 👣 Why wellness is a decision 👣 5 morning practices to fill your cup 👣 How to anchor scripture to your morning routine 👣 Why self-care isn’t about escape — it’s about alignment.   📖 Grab your tea and your Dream Your Dreams journal, available at: https://etsy.me/3TcASYK — and use code PODCAST15 for 15% off any workbook!   🌟 Know someone who needs a little light?
