Looking for some morning routine ideas?

Having a morning routine is a great way to help start your day and how to be more productive in the morning. It can give you the opportunity to feel more relaxed, be energized, feel happier, and get you mentally prepared for whatever the day throws at you.

Plus, a morning routine can give you that extra “me time” you need, especially if you are a busy, independent woman caring for kids, pets, an elderly parent, significant other, and/or a house.

To learn how to create a morning routine that’s effective and something you can stick to, read my blog post “Create a Morning Routine in 5 Easy Tips.”  You can also watch the video to that blog post here.

Below are 101 morning routine ideas that you can do for wellness, to get organized, to be more productive, help with your finances, and overall just live life.

All areas which are great for your self-improvement and personal development growth.

Some ideas you can do daily like journaling, others you can do on designated days based on your weekly routine like going grocery shopping on Fridays.
