I did not want to get out of bed this morning.

We all have mornings like that, right?

It stays dark longer and the air has a bitter chill.

Don’t tell me I’m the only one who holds off on going to the bathroom first thing in the morning so I don’t have to leave my bed!

With the cold comes more aches, pains and stiffness in the muscles that can make mornings miserable. These are things that make that snooze button all that much more appealing and then what happens?

You skip breakfast, start yelling at people when you get stuck in traffic and you’re late for work.

You forget your lunch, so you have to head over to McDonald’s for some gross take out that gives you a stomachache and then your whole day is ruined.

But… (Yes, there’s a but!)

There is an easy and fun way to get your morning started.

Here is a yoga routine you can do first thing in the morning to help you get moving, warm and happy!

How you start your morning is literally how you live your day.

How you live your day is literally how you live your life.

If you keep putting off greatness, you may live your whole life with it at your fingertips but never in your grasp.

Start living the best life you can, right now.
