Smile for me in the Mirror: Simple Benefits for a Better Day
It may feel a little unusual at first, but taking a moment to smile at yourself in the mirror can make a powerful difference in your day. This simple habit goes beyond just mood-boosting; it supports mental well-being, resilience, and self-compassion. Here’s a closer look at why this small practice is worth trying
Routine Tips
What is the difference between a routine and a habit?
A habit is a single routine behavior that is repeated, while a routine is a pattern of behavior that is performed continuously by linking two or more habits together.
I'm not sure why I do routines.
Routines reduce the worry of what to do and when, so you can focus on what matters. We spend more time than we realize on repetitive thinking. Routines can help you cut out the unnecessary and make time for yourself.
What would be a good first routine?
I recommend a morning routine and an evening routine. Start with a routine that's easy for you - one minute, three minutes, whatever works for you - and work your way up. Once you've completed an easy routine, you'll find that longer routines won't be as difficult. Why not try focusing on 'completion' rather than goals in the beginning?
I'm nervous about starting a routine.
1. Reduce the number of habits - Are you greedily filling up on habits you want to do? Start by eliminating the habits that weigh you down the most, or keep only the ones you really need.
2. Start with an easy habit- It's hard to start a routine if your first habit is overwhelming. So why not make your first habit super easy? Once you get going, you'll find yourself completing the routine before you know it.
3. Add a new habit- Add more habits that you're excited to try. You can browse through the suggested routines in the Routinery app.
4. Think about the goal of your routine- Think back to the reason you created your routine - what was your goal?
Do I have to complete every routine?
It's okay if you don't complete them all, the important thing is to 'stick to the routine'. Why not finish the routine, even if it's only a little bit? You'll do better next time!
Do you have any tips for getting up early?
Have you ever fallen asleep looking at your phone? You need a good night's sleep to wake up early. Why not spend an hour before bed getting yourself into a sleepy state? Try meditating, stretching, or even falling asleep visualizing what you want to be - it'll settle into your subconscious and make it much easier to wake up in the morning.
How do I utilize a supportive environment?
Write down a quote or affirmation that wakes you up, or include a link to your favorite workout or meditation so you can jump right into it when the routine timer starts.
