Have you ever wondered why some people seem to effortlessly glide through their mornings, while others struggle to even get out of bed? The answer might lie in the power of rituals.

Rituals are structured, repetitive actions that hold personal significance. They create a sense of control and predictability, which can be particularly calming during the often chaotic mornings. Studies show that rituals can:

• Reduce stress and anxiety: Rituals provide a sense of order and purpose, which can lower cortisol (stress hormone) levels.
• Boost productivity: Consistent routines help us enter a flow state, allowing us to focus on tasks with greater efficiency.
• Improve well-being: Rituals connected to healthy habits, like exercise or meditation, can positively impact physical and mental health.
