A Good Morning
Give yourself a good start with our Good Morning Routine.
Good morning! I hope you feel relief from a worry, inspired from an idea, and supported because of good company. Thank you for all you do!

In 2009, I started writing Good Morning messages, like the one above, when I wanted to find my own voice on Twitter. In the early days of Twitter, we had a 140-character limit which helped me focus on one take-away message.
These Good Morning have evolved over the years. I created journals, turning these messages into prompts for your day's intentions and goals.
Most recently, I transformed these Good Morning messages into a Good Morning Routine which you can track in my community, CaringOurWay.
I have found that paying attention to my morning routine makes the routine more meaningful. My typical Monday through Friday morning includes a rhythm:
☕ I brew the coffee.
🛏️ I make the bed.
💪 I stretch the muscles.
✅ I check in with Snug. (Snug is a check-in app I started using because I live alone.)
🎼 I listen to classical music.
🖊️ I post a Good Morning message.
I track my habit in the Good Morning Routine section: Coffee. Bed. Muscles. Snug. Music. Message.
I feel so much better at the start of the day because I already recorded a win.
The Good Morning Routine tracker helps you create a morning routine that works for you. I offer suggestions for short meditations, journaling, stretching and reflecting.
If you'd like a more intentional start to your morning, join me! I'd love your company.

Our Virtual Caregiving Advocacy Conference takes place May 15-17. During our virtual event, we'll empower you with insights and strategies you can use to support family caregivers in your community and online. We'll tell you about what we've learned from our work with family caregivers so you can bring our lessons learned into your work. Because we best help others when we first help ourselves, we'll also share ways for you to heal your own experiences. Registration is free. You can earn CEUs on May 15 and 16 for a flat fee of $30.
Thanks for the introduction to Snug!
