#2. Intermédiaire.

#3. Avancée.

Starting your day off right is the key to success. We've drawn inspiration from the best to offer you three morning routines to choose from, depending on your preferences, lifestyle, and schedule. Easy, intermediate, or advanced, it's up to you to select the morning routine that suits you best and that will be easy for you to maintain over time.


#1. Easy.

Prepare the day before .
  • Writing down your to-do list - helps you clear your mind, sleep better and get going more quickly the next day
  • Choosing and preparing the clothes you will wear
  • Prepare your gym bag if you are going to the gym in the morning
Choosing the right alarm clock that works for you.
    • An alarm with a gradually increasing volume for a gentle awakening
    • Good vibe music that wakes you up with a smile
    • Invest in a real alarm clock so you don't have to pick up your phone first thing in the morning.
    • Position the alarm clock far from the bed for those who have the most difficulty emerging.
Open the curtains or shutters to let in daylight.
    • Daylight promotes the secretion of cortisol, the wakefulness hormone
Drink a large glass of water when you wake up.
    • To gently activate your metabolism.
Do not touch your phone.
    • We spend between 4 and 6 hours in front of our screens, drawing a line under it in the morning allows us to refocus on what really matters.
Set aside 20 minutes for an activity that (really) makes us feel good.
    • 20 minutes of yoga
    • 20 minutes of reading
    • 20 minutes of writing and meditation
    • 20 minutes of self-care: massage, treatments, mask
    • 20 minute walk
Take a shower.
    • A little fresh to finish waking up and to activate your circulation.
Eat a nutritious breakfast.
    • Rich in vitamins and minerals, to fill up on energy.

#3. Advance.

We're inspired by the miracle morning, the morning routine developed by Hal Elrod to help you become the best version of yourself. It's practiced by the most talented CEOs. We've put together a formula here so you can get started quickly:

We get up 1 to 2 hours before your usual alarm.
    • The idea? Capitalize on the morning hours when you're not bothered by all the outside distractions, to focus on yourself.
10 minutes of meditation.
    • Inaction + silence + breathing—that's the basic recipe for meditation. Rest assured, you'll improve over time. In the long run, meditating every day will reduce your stress and increase your concentration and memory.
10 minutes of positive affirmations.
    • Repeat to yourself several times, preferably out loud, positive phrases about what you want to become or achieve during the day.
10 minutes of viewing.
    • Visualize yourself accomplishing and becoming the person you've always dreamed of being. The combination of affirmations and visualization is a powerful motivator to start your day off right.
20 minutes of physical activity.
    • Yoga, running, walking, strength training. Choose an activity that you truly enjoy and that energizes you.
20 minutes of reading.
    • Preferably non-fiction. Here too, the goal is to capitalize on those hours of the day when you are quiet without distractions, take advantage of them to enrich your knowledge and your culture.
10 minutes of writing.
    • Keeping a journal is also a good technique for increasing your well-being. Write down your goals, your ideas, and what makes you happy.
