February is gone, and March is kicking off, but we here at the Habit Thrive Podcast aren’t finished caring for our emotional heart just yet!

This week, on Episode #89, we are exploring our morning and evening rituals, habits, routines (or whatever you prefer to call them) that bring about a better night's sleep and easier flow to the days ahead.

In the morning, cortisol helps us get up, melatonin switches to serotonin, our brain waves move from alpha to beta, and we transition from the subconscious to conscious mind.

So, what part of your morning helps you embrace these changes in your body and mind?

All of these - and any other activities or habits that get you ready for your day - can help fortify your whole self and prepare you for what’s ahead.

At night, the opposite occurs as the door closes to the day and our systems serenade us to bed.

Our serotonin levels ramp back up, our brain waves move back to alpha, and we transition from conscious to subconscious mind.

Your nighttime routine or ritual might include:

Whatever relaxes your mind and body and gets you ready to let go into sleep.

The goal is to “bookend” each day with rituals, habits and routines that are good for every part of your mind, your heart, your body and your emotional health.

Practice what works for you, eliminate what doesn’t, and build a set of routines that are not just life-changing, but life-saving!
