The Most Simple Morning Routine for Moms
There was a time in my life where I felt like the best morning routine for moms was running around the house as fast I could in the morning trying to accomplish as much as I could before the kids woke up.
To be honest this left me stressed out and exhausted before the day even started!
Quickly I realized I needed to create a better, more simple morning routine for moms to help get us ready for the day rather than starting our day going crazy.

Wake up before the kids
The most important thing for me in creating a morning routine for moms is to wake up before the kids. This allows me to have a few minutes to focus on me practice some daily self care for mom things as well as just have a few minutes of peace.
Drink water
Your body cannot run without fuel, so start the day off right by drinking water! I try to keep a water bottle near me at all time to help remind me to drink water throughout the day as well.
I find when I start drinking water in my morning routine for moms that I continue the habit throughout the whole day. If you struggle drinking water throughout the day definitely check out these 5 tips to drinking more water!
Exercise
Try to dedicate 20-30 minutes of exercising in your morning routine. I know you might not feel like doing it, I don’t most days when I start, but I promise you will never look back on your exercise and say, “I wish I didn’t do that today.” So get moving in the morning!
Get ready
Create your to-do list for the day
A major part of a perfect morning routine is creating your to-do list for the day. This is not a crazy long list filled with 5000 things on it that you will never be able to accomplish. This is where you write down your Must-Do items followed by a would like to get down and then come I would love it if I accomplished it today!
Setting a reasonable to-do list keeps you on track to a productive day.

If only I could wake up at 6 am!. I am glad I don’t have kids yet. I am hoping that once I start my new internship, and hopefully it turns into a job, that I am able to get more done around the house. As of right now I work 2nd shifts, and usually get home between 1 – 3 am. There is no way I could wake up at 6!. I will keep this in mind though for when I eventually am able to do so.
You sound busy! With second shift I couldn’t get up then either! That is what time I get up because that is what works now for me, you can always adjust the times to your schedule, but still adapt the same steps. Good luck!
After reading this I feel like I waste my whole morning. Very inspiring, need to get with a better program and 6 am is not an impossible wake up time.
You can do it 🙂 Let me know how it goes!
You would think that a guy couldn’t relate to these steps (being a night-owl moreover), but this is definitely motivating me to get more things done early in the morning and ultimately get more done through the day!
I am so glad you can relate! I promise it has made my days way more productive as I am sure it will make yours as well!
Lovely routine, I should start this soon.
Good luck! Let us know how it goes!
I enjoy the early morning routine , thanks for sharing.
I love it too! Thanks 🙂
Great tips! I need to start getting more done in the morning before work. I’m hoping to get better about a routine now that it’s back to school!
Yes! When school is out we all tend to lose our routines a little bit. I’m glad you enjoyed the tips!
Great tips! (I definitely need these)
I am glad they could help!
