Is your battery running on empty? Is life feeling like a nonstop whirlwind? What if I told you that you could reset your energy in under 30 minutes? You can. Recharge your battery with these 7 rituals—yes, rituals, not random breaks. Consistency is key when it comes to recharging.
MORNING STRETCH + MINDFUL COFFEE
Start the day intentionally. Stretch enough to get your body moving and then enjoy a cup of coffee. Focus on the coffee—really allow yourself to enjoy it while letting your mind clear and your body relax.
MIDDAY DIGITAL DETOX
Instead of using your lunch break to scroll through your phone, check emails, or respond to messages, use the time to disconnect from screens. A break from screens is crucial to helping our minds slow down.
QUICK CREATIVE SESSION
We often give our kiddos coloring books, so why not get one for yourself? Take a few minutes to tap into your creative side. Color, doodle, write, or make that craft you saw on TikTok!
NATURE MINUTE
Take a step outside and give yourself a minute to focus on the grass, the trees, the birds, the sun, all of your surroundings. Simply existing outside is enough to recharge your batteries.
EVENING WIND DOWN
This one may seem impossible while getting the kids to bed, but remember—you deserve this time. Light some candles, run a bubble bath, play relaxing music and have your own mini spa time.
GRATITUDE REFLECTION
Start a journal of gratitude. Each day, take time to write down three things you are thankful for, three positive things that happened, and three things you’re looking forward to.
MINI WORKOUT
Small workouts really help us shift our mindsets. You don’t have to do a full-blown workout. Do some lunges, a few squats, and jumping jacks to get your body moving. No matter what, you can say, “I worked out today”—and sometimes that’s the best mood booster.
These seven rituals can help transform your mood and reset your battery. Remember, it’s not just about taking breaks—it’s about creating time and space for these rituals every day. You deserve it!
