Psalm 143:5-10: "I remember the days of old; I meditate on all that you have done; I ponder the work of your hands. I stretch out my hands to you; my soul thirsts for you like a parched land. Answer me quickly, O Lord! My spirit fails! Hide not your face from me, lest I be like those who go down to the pit. Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love, for in you I trust. Make me know the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul. Deliver me from my enemies, O Lord! I have fled to you for refuge. Teach me to do your will, for you are my God! Let your good Spirit lead me on level ground!” 

Here are 4 things to start tomorrow to reclaim your mornings:

1. Start with God before social media. Before the notifications. Before the comparison. Before the chaos. Spend time grounding yourself spiritually. 

2. Hydrate immediately- we wake up dehydrated from rest so drink water before coffee. 16-20 ounces first thing. 

3. Eat a balanced breakfast- Eat within one hour of waking up. This can look like a banana, toast with a tsp peanut butter and two eggs. Eat something! Skipping breakfast often leads to: cravings-overeating-later-low energy-blood sugar crashes.

4. Move your body 15-20 minutes to start 3-4 days a week. Move up to 20-30 minutes as you feel stronger. NOT HIIT workouts ladies over 40, strength training, walking, stretching, mobility work. Movement creates momentum and it adds up!

Here’s an idea of a morning routine you can start tomorrow:

  • Wake up 15-20 minutes early
  • Prayer + Bible
  • Water
  • Breakfast
  • 10 minute walk

Simple. Sustainable.

Most Holy Father, Help us begin our days with peace and wisdom. Teach us to create routines that support our health and our relationship with You. Give us consistency in the small things. Forgive me Father for rushing and wasting time on social, lead me to new paths, your paths. Help me to lean into your steadfast promises to guide me as I implement a new discipline in my life. Let me give you my first fruits every day and show me how to love myself as I learn. I love You Father, in Jesus’ name, amen.

Action Items for tomorrow morning:

  • read one verse before your phone
  • drink water first
  • eat protein within an hour of waking up

Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?

Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach. I gained 100 pounds in my late twenties and struggled for years to get it off. Seven years ago, I found a basic system that worked and has helped me lose 90 of those pounds. I’ve been working with women in online fitness and nutrition ever since to break chains of diet culture, embrace their bodies and fueling instead of dieting. 

 In this podcast, I'll teach you how to:

  • • Lose Weight in a Way that honors God without obsessing about the scale
    • Meal Plan and Prep for Your Family
    • Follow a MACRO based plan that allows you to eat the foods you love.
    • Recognize and pray through triggers keeping you stuck.
    • I’ll help you Plan your week and schedule your self-care time.
    • Cultivate a spirit of self-discipline in your workouts you actually enjoy.
     
    It's time to give God your health journey and watch Him make you new, from the inside, OUT.
