Truvia’s 6 Tips for a Better Morning Routine

Jan 25, 2024

The way you wake up sets the tone for the rest of your day, so set yourself up for success! Team Truvia has some helpful tips for creating a morning routine that will help you start the day energized, focused, and on the right track!

1. No Need to Rush!

Start your day with plenty of extra time. While this may mean getting up a little earlier, the benefits far outweigh the initial adjustment. Take your time and ease into the day, savor that first cup of coffee (with a little Truvia Sweetener, naturally). Allowing yourself the time to get a gradual start to the day and avoiding the morning rush can reduce stress all day long!

2. Mindful Mornings

Making a little time for some inner peace every day is a great habit to get in to. Mindfulness practices like meditation, breathing exercises, or practicing gratitude are all fantastic ways to get your head in a positive place for the rest of your day!

3. Create a Coffee Ritual

Establishing a daily coffee ritual can add comforting consistency and familiarity to your morning. Use your favorite mug, sit in your favorite spot, make the coffee just how you like it (Two packets of Calorie-Free Truvia for me please!) and enjoy! Don’t love coffee? No problem! Try tea, juice, or a delicious smoothie. As long as you keep it consistent, you’ve got the right idea! Need some breakfast beverage inspiration? We’ve got you covered.

4. Tune Out the Tech

You’ve probably heard about the benefits of a “no screens” rule before going to sleep but it applies to wake-ups, too! Try to resist the temptation to jump right into your emails and social media first thing in the morning. Give yourself at least 30 minutes to focus on you before diving into the phone zone. You can use the time for mindfulness, some light exercise, or simply taking the time to sip your favorite morning beverage!

5. Nourish, Hydrate, Repeat

A glass of water first thing in the morning feels great and is an easy way to get a head start on daily hydration! Follow it up with an energy-rich breakfast (allow us to recommend these No-Bake Energy Bites made with Truvia Liquid Vanilla Flavor) and you’re on your way to beautiful day!

6. Evaluate, Adjust, and Experiment

Consistency is the key to a better morning routine, but don’t be afraid to change it up if something isn’t working! Finding the perfect morning for you won’t happen overnight (pun intended). If part of your routine is bringing you down, ditch it! Extra stress won’t help anyone. Try a variety of approaches to find the right mix for you– Some people do better with more exercise, some need a little extra morning sunlight… Keep trying until you discover what works!
