good morning it's not getting any easier per se gonna need some of this doesn't feel right

that doesn't feel that doesn't it doesn't feel right

hi friends how are ya welcome back to my channel for a video

that is very different from what i have ever done

but i've always wanted to do i might regret it later in the week

but i I am going to try a 5 a.m morning routine for a whole week to see how it goes,

see if I like it,

see if I hate it.

I consider myself a morning person.

I love, I love the morning time.

It's my time alone.

My husband, Brooke, goes to bed late and kind of sleeps in.

So like those morning hours are my time and it's when my brain functions the best.

So obviously would love to have more hours in the morning

and really like maximize it and see how I could start off my day on the best foot possible.

But also, your girl loves sleep.

I actually probably average nine hours of sleep a night.

I have to have at least eight or else I am just like a grumpy butthole.

My main hesitancy is will I be able to get to bed early enough to make this worth it?

I don't know.

So this next week I'm going to take you along.

We're going to see how it works and try different things in the mornings,

whether it be just working or maybe practicing some gratitude

or journaling or maybe even like doing a little workout in the morning.

We're just going to experiment.

So I'm very excited to take you along for this journey kind of vlog style.

And without further ado, let's cut to Monday and begin our Monday through Friday journey.

What if the world had more of your smile?

What if the wind could spread your love?

What if your sweetness could reach everyone?

There'd be no wars, mmm.

Good morning.

It is day one of this.

I'm realizing how much my body naturally wakes up with the sun,

and it is definitely not light outside yet.

I went to bed last night at 9.32 to try to get all of my sleep in.

I was worried I wouldn't be able to fall asleep,

but I fell asleep immediately, so that's great.

but then I woke up at 2 a.m because I had to pee

and I realized Brooke wasn't asleep yet

so I like in my sleepy mind panicked

because he wasn't in his office

and was like oh my gosh something happened to him he was just in the bathroom

but that was enough to like wake my brain completely up

and I didn't fall back asleep till 3 40 I think was the last time I looked at the clock

so that was rough so we'll see how that goes

but it is very early made my coffee

and I think the way I want to do this is

try like one new intentional thing each morning to see what

I like see what I want to keep see what sticks I keep realizing the importance of gratitude

and everything I really believe if you're grateful and if you find things to be grateful in life

you will be a more joyful person

and just be content with wherever you are with whatever's going on

and I think

that is the secret to success in life is just being grateful for where you're at not necessarily accomplishing things

or you know having status or money or whatever and these are things I need to remind my Enneagram 3 mind.

So I got my journal self plug this is my summer mornings notebook

if you guys haven't seen this is one of my products for my brand it is half

grid pages and it is half blank pages and is currently for sale at summer-mornings.com.

I'm going to Google some gratitude prompts and try journaling.

Normally the first thing I do is grab my computer.

This morning I'm going to do that and then I'm going to plan out my goals.

This is a new journal I got actually in a PR box from Cozy Earth.

So not their product at all and and I love it.

It has you divide your tasks by most important,

two second more important, and then two remaining.

And then it has you time block, and it's really cool.

So I'm going to prioritize my day with that and see how I feel once it's all over.

Max and I are now officially getting work done and I feel like I have been up forever and it's 6.35.

That's a weird feeling.

Okay, day one thoughts.

It's 8.30 a.m.

I ordered groceries.

They just arrived.

Did a full shower where I like washed my hair, shaved everything got everything done on my virtual to-do list,

brainstormed video ideas, posted a TikTok,

which I literally never do,

but I'm gonna start doing more.

And I've basically done everything I need to do for the day that is not filming,

but I do have a lot of filming things I need to do later today.

My one complaint is at 5 a.m there's not many emails to respond to,

so I wish I could have gotten that done.

So I think today I'm gonna be very lax on responding to emails.

So in the morning I can just like batch them

and get them done when I'm like ready and eager in the morning.

But I am tired, probably because I woke up at 2 a.m.

So conflicting thoughts, but day one, check.

Good morning.

It's day two of this.

I took a while to get out of bed this morning

because last night I hosted a bowling night for my girls bible study and it didn't go that late.

I mean I left at like 10

so I got home like 10 15 was asleep by 11

but still a lot later than I intended to for this experiment

so waking up was hard this morning as this morning's like

intentional thing i thought it sounded really nice just to be

outside to uh kind of start my work day watching the

world wake up it's actually once you're out here a lot lighter than it feels

100

when you're inside so that's cool

101

and there is just something special about being outside before anybody

102

else is out here none of the kids in the neighborhood are up yet.

103

That feels nice because they're usually really loud.

104

So I got my coffee,

105

I got my computer, and I got a blanket because it's 64 degrees right now.

106

It's not that cold, but it's a little chilly.

107

And I'm gonna make my to-do list and get on my day.

108

Ah, it is now officially 7.30 and look who's here!

109

The sun!

110

It is cool to like watch the world change as the sun wakes up, you know?

111

it's 7 30 and yet again I've finished all my computer work

112

and I have a 10 a.m chiropractic consult

113

so can't really film anything for the day till after that

114

so I'm like what do I do with the next two

115

and a half hours I could work out

116

but I didn't have it on my calendar

117

so I don't want to probably shower and get ready

118

but day two success feeling a little bit sleepy loved being

119

outdoors can't wait to see how my opinions change throughout the week the Sun feels good

120

It's a nice little kiss on the cheek.

121

Close your eyes.

122

Good morning.

123

Here's the thing.

124

Something interesting happened.

125

It's actually up a little bit before five this morning because Brooke got up to go golfing before work.

126

And that literally never happens ever.

127

I normally wake up like between 7 and 8

128

and he normally wakes up around 10

129

so I never get the bed in the morning

130

and before I was married I would love waking up in the morning

131

and getting back into bed with my coffee

132

and doing a little bit of work so that's what I'm gonna do

133

but my intentional thing this morning is I booked a 7 a.m pilates class

134

which sounds really early to work out I don't like working

135

out in the morning I really don't I went through a phase where I would go to like 6 a.m cycling classes.

136

My brain is good in the morning.

137

My body needs a while, you know?

138

But I'm gonna see how I feel,

139

because it's been a long time since I've done an early morning workout,

140

meaning I need to leave here at 6.30.

141

So I can really only get a little bit of work done this morning before I have to get ready and go.

142

But that's our plan.

143

That's our little experiment of the day let's do it well it's 6 30

144

and I'm about to leave doesn't feel right it doesn't feel it doesn't just don't feel right

145

nothing says good morning like the Sun right in your face

146

but you know I'm glad I tried that because I confirmed I don't like freaking out early.

147

I sat up after one stretch and out of nowhere I had a really bad headache.

148

It's going away but my body's just not used to it.

149

I prefer definitely later in the day

150

but I treated myself to a unsweetened oat matcha latte from lavender

151

and honey which is like a really cute little space here.

152

Apparently, I'm sorry I can't look at you.

153

Apparently they have great toast.

154

Obviously I can't try that but this is really good.

155

my eyes I'm really making up

156

good morning we made it to day four i woke up

157

my body's like waking up right at five being like your alarm's probably about to go off

158

but at the same time like not ready to wake up so i woke up at five,

159

but I kind of like laid in bed and just stared at the wall until 5.30.

160

Still counts, still was up.

161

It's not getting any easier per se,

162

and I think that I have a little bit of a headache just from a change in schedule,

163

so like abruptly and rapidly,

164

and I figured as my intentional thing this morning,

165

typically what I do is I go to bed at night,

166

and Brooke and I pray together,

167

and then I read a devotional before I go to bed

168

and I was like I never do this in the morning

169

so instead of even a devotional I just grabbed straight up

170

bible gonna be honest never read this I always just use my phone the app

171

but I figured this could be a good way to like

172

unplug a little bit read a little bit of this before I get on to work

173

and I do have actually a lot of emails to get to this morning Whenever I have a lot to do,

174

I feel very motivated.

175

So I am feeling very motivated to get that done,

176

to have a good day,

177

because I have a very,

178

very, very busy day ahead with doctor's appointments,

179

meetings, events, and a video that I have to record,

180

and Pilates, and therapy.

181

A lot.

182

I know it's nothing new,

183

but it's so good to see you.

184

So update, it's 7.30.

185

I made the lighting much cozier in here because when you wake up in the morning,

186

the bright lights are like, whoa.

187

But it's starting to get light outside,

188

although it's a hazy day.

189

And I did all of my work and then some

190

that I plan to do this morning before I head out for appointments and such.

191

So it's been a really good chill morning

192

and can't wait to wrap up this video

193

and give you all my final thoughts

194

because there's some things I love about an early morning routine and some things that I'm not about.

195

It's been a really fun learning experience,

196

but starting my day off with a little bit of Jesus I think was really good for the soul.

197

So that might be something that I have to incorporate more often.

198

Good morning.

199

It's day five.

200

It's Friday.

201

Full confession.

202

This morning when my alarm went off at five,

203

I was like, Mikael, it's the last day.

204

Why don't we like snooze for 20 minutes?

205

My body was like, no, it's five.

206

We get up now.

207

It is like extra dark this morning.

208

I don't know lie, very, very dark.

209

And so the intentional thing I want to try this morning is doing like some stretching outside.

210

I used to stretch every single day and I was very good about it.

211

And I've just gotten worse about it.

212

And I feel so much better when I stretch.

213

So I thought that'd be a nice way to get some fresh air and move my body a little bit.

214

But when it's pitch black outside,

215

I'm convinced my yard is full of coyotes.

216

So what I'm going to do is respond to emails for the next hour and then probably 6,

217

6.30 going out there and stretch.

218

And also I will have my emails done by that point.

219

So I will feel very mentally free and clear.

220

That's the plan.

221

Cheers to coffee.

222

Can't believe I actually woke up at 5am all the days.

223

Wow.

224

Had low expectations for myself.

225

Wow.

226

It feels so nice out here.

227

I actually did a couple hours of work I was on a roll.

228

It is 7 18 and I realized I'm in like the least convenient pajamas to stretch

229

but I don't want to go back into our bedroom

230

and wake up Brooke but I got my yoga mat

231

and I pulled it outside

232

and it just it just feels really great outside like very

233

calming peaceful happy since I'm in little strappy pajamas I'm just going to do very minimal stretching

234

but just being intentional about getting some fresh air

235

and kind of waking up my body a little bit I

236

think is a good I think it's a good thing to do in the morning.

237

Why don't I do this?

238

Windows wide the curtains fly to catch the evening breeze without you here to keep me warm Believe I'd rather free

239

Believe I'd rather free Okay,

240

so it's been five days of waking up at 5 a.m.

241

What am I thinking?

242

How am I feeling?

243

Feeling a little tired, not gonna lie.

244

Normally around like 9 to 10,

245

I'm like, oh my gosh,

246

I've already been up five hours and I am exhausted.

247

I also think it's kind of ironic that tomorrow morning,

248

Saturday morning, I will also be waking up at 5 a.m

249

because my parents are actually visiting me

250

and we are going to go watch surfers in Malibu and try to get there by six.

251

so I'm well prepared.

252

The things I love, the things I didn't love.

253

In terms of just waking up at 5 a.m.,

254

I love the fact that I have so many hours of peace and quiet by myself.

255

I love the fact that my brain personally works best in the morning,

256

and I love the peace of mind the night before when I'm like,

257

I will have five whole hours before I have to do anything to catch up on things.

258

So I go to bed feeling a lot more at peace.

259

Things I don't love is not getting the normal amount of sleep that I normally get.

260

I get a lot of sleep.

261

I have a lot of different health issues and I truly believe

262

that me getting extra sleep is what helps me to function

263

and at least seem like a normal person amongst all of my different autoimmune diseases.

264

So I don't think I can sacrifice my like nine to 10 hours of sleep.

265

Main reason why I'm not ready to have kids.

266

And also the days that I did not have a lot of admin computer work

267

and the days that I mostly just have filming stuff,

268

I really didn't have a lot I could do with those hours in the morning

269

because I have to wait until lighting is good to film anyways.

270

I would say I will continue to wake up early on the days

271

that I have a lot of like traditional work to get done,

272

but the days that I'm mostly just content creating,

273

it doesn't really make sense for me.

274

I'm going to stick with waking up like 7 30 ish.

275

Seems to work really well.

276

In terms of the intentional things I tried every morning,

277

I loved basically everything except for going to a workout class.

278

My body just doesn't love working out in the morning.

279

I know I talked about that,

280

but I did really like journaling,

281

reading the Bible, stretching outside,

282

and what was the fourth thing I did?

283

Can't even remember, but I remember thinking that I liked everything besides working out.

284

Overall, I think I will bring some of these gratitude

285

and intentionality things into my mornings to start my day off on the right track,

286

but I'm not going to feel pressured to do everything that like a morning routine requires,

287

if that makes sense, but it was a good experiment.

288

I'm probably gonna take a nap now.

289

Can't wait to watch this back and see how that went

290

but nevertheless thank you so much for spending this week with me,

291

these early mornings with me,

292

and probably a lot of time with me with my morning hair and makeup-less self.

293

So I love y'all so much.

294

I just wanted to do more of these like try videos

295

so if there's anything else you want me to try whether it's like a week of something

296

or ordering something I don't know let me know in the comments down below.

297

I think that these are a lot of fun.

298

I love you with my whole heart.

299

I hope you have the best rest of your day and I will see you in a video very soon.

300

Bye.

301

So give me a sign.

302

Give me a sign.

303

Oh, give me a sign.

304

Baby, give me a sign.

305

Just give me one more.

306

Talking to you.

307

Here we go again.

308

Staying up.

309

I'm not to see if you've been texting me.

310

Where do we go from here?

311

I want to go.
