  • Here's a look at my 5AM slow living morning routine since moving from Hawaii and into our new house. This morning was a very typical day for me; some self-care, some homemaking, gardening, work, reading books, and breakfast. As always - grace over perfection.
    I hope this video brings you a bit of peace, calm, and inspiration for a slower, more simple life!

    My self-care routine includes not getting up early in the morning anymore. It's been really freeing to know that I can still be a productive and respectful person even if I don't get up at 5am.

    Love seeing the slow life. I am currently in a season of my life filled with regret and remorse. Seeing your videos makes me realize I need to enjoy being happy for the things I do have. And not focus so much on “the way my life is supposed to be” it’s a journey. It’s always going to be a journey.

      Honestly it will change your life - it’s not easy at all to do . I was at this stage my life to and being homeless makes it feel much worse but if just changed one thing I could be so thankful then build from this - slowly after months of this I finally get that excited feeling again inside me - even if things are not “ going our way or where we want to be 💖

    Here’s my 5:30 morning routine I’m loving! Stretch/1-song workout to get blood flowing but not sweaty; 30 mins quiet time with the Lord and Bible reading, 30 mins working on stocks (learning to be a trader), 15 mins get ready with Headway summary book app or podcast, 15 mins breakfast, then off to work! I’m sure it’ll change in the future since I’m single with no kids, but I’ve been loving this rhythm!
