There's other videos like this but YOURS caught my attention today! After playing pickleball off and on for 6 years, I now know I need to wake up early to improve my skills even more so I can pass it down to the next generation, in hopes of one of the students make it in the Olympics. Currently about 60 countries are playing pickleball; the Olympic committee requires at least 75 countries to consider. Thank you!!!
Thank you for your kind words and gesture. Pickleball is something I wasn't very familiar with, but I truly admire your passion and love for the sport. I sincerely hope you can share your gift with a wider audience and inspire the younger generation ❤️🔥 Cheers to harnessing the power of early mornings!
Summary for me : 1. Have a clear reason. 2. Have a full preparation one night before. 3. Focus on Benefits with visualization. 4. Don't cut down the sleeping hours going to bed is equally important. I really wanted to do this to boost my self esteem.
@@FlourishedHope do you believe in free will Yesterday is history, tomorrow is mystery Today is present. Nobody knows what's the future All we have is the present moment live it enjoy the process ☺️
I LOVE waking up early. I go to bed around 10 and get up around 6. No phone until 9am. Have a cup of warm lemon water, sit outside in the sunrise and then do yoga before having breakfast. It’s a great way to start my day!
@@peacelovejoyandhappiness I personally drink my coffee (decaf) or morning matcha AFTER my warm lemon water. I like to have the water first thing before ingesting anything else😊
@@laurenmcolletti one more question please, do you consume any processed foods or sugars by chance? I feel that these options are the largest culprit to the human diet. Not too mention the bad fats too. Thoughts?
Well said! As a mom of young kids, I’ve been waking up early as a form of self-care. It definitely helps me establish a sense of purpose, control, and peace of mind 😌
Yes, I see alot of older people getting up early, sweeping the yard, walking, jogging, stretching before the day begins. And I think this is a way of cancelling the mind before it gets a hold of you and messes up your day
Seems to work the other way around for me, im most restless, depressed an anxious when I wake up early. Kind of makes sense since usually ill be on less sleep plus the naturall stress hormones are higher the earlier you wake up. They usually peak around 3am and go down from there.
According to Sanathana Dharma, 4:30 AM is called the Bramha muhurtham that's when the gods are awake and it's said that when a person wakes up at that time and spends time on anything he wants to achieve he will achieve that.
Thank you for sharing that! I didn’t know 4:30 AM had a specific name. Early mornings are definitely something to treasure - they’re a magical time that our ancestors also knew and appreciated 🙏
He meant gods bro.. Hinduism has a lot of gods.. He just mentioned what it says in Hinduism and the belief around “Brahma Muhurtam” (specific early hours of the morning). Let’s please not make this thread a fight on Gods and religions.
As a Muslim, our religion has recommended that we wake up early before sunrise to perform the first prayer, which is the fajr prayer, and thank God for the blessings and gratitude. Our Prophet Muhammad also said, (meaning) that waking up early will be blessed and there will be enough time for everything.
Oh yes, early mornings offer a wonderful opportunity for personal reflection and rejuvenation, especially after a restful night's sleep. I typically wake up around 4:00 AM to enjoy some quiet time before work. My morning routine includes activities that help me start the day on a positive note, such as devotion, exercise, and preparing my meals. I also appreciate the cool, refreshing mornings in Jamaica, especially now that the days or so, so hot 🥵, up to 34° C. Thanks to God that I work in an air conditioned environment. As the old Jamaican saying goes, "Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise." There's certainly a lot of truth in that.
Agree. But when in the summer the crazies move the clock one hour behind and the last prayer is at midnight at the first at 4. People need to demand that they stop w summertime. Very unhealthy.
Thank you for encouragement, I actually wake up naturally 4:30am but thought just something wrong , went back to sleep to get up at 5:45am and I am more tired. Thank you I will just get up now at 4:30pm to do my time with Bible and fun things that I want to focus on :)
Aww, I’m so happy the messages in my video resonated with you! The difference between waking up at 4:30 am and 5:30 am was a mystery to me too, until I learned more about the body clock! ☺️
I love the fact that you emphasized "I can't stress enough how important it is to have enough sleep" And I couldn't agree more that waking up early is not havng less sleep but shifting the whole life schedule.
Amazing. I have been sleeping 9:30 to 5 for years (I am 58) and have thought something was wrong with me and wanted to sleep in a bit longer, especially at the weekend. But, I use my early morning to meditate and go out cycling in the summer (static bike in winter) and have lost weight and improved my fitness. I guess my body clock has adjusted as I am always up by 5 without fail and never set an alarm. I will start to see this as a gift rather than a curse from now on. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your story! It's interesting how we sometimes have preconceptions that hinder us from fully appreciating our own gifts and uniqueness. I’m so glad my video offered a gentle nudge toward embracing the freedom to view your body clock in a new light! 💖
I dont think you realise how helpful this video is for me... I'm struggling to achieve my goals and no one around me gets it.. They are good loving people but they just dont understand what i am struggling with... Becoming a morning person is the way to go... I will achieve my dreams... No matter what.. Once again Thank you soo much for this video... God bless you
I’m so glad you found value in the tips I’ve shared ☺️ I hope my video can serve as a gentle nudge towards your personal goals and help refresh your morning routine 🌞 No matter what anyone else says, don’t give up!
damnnnn im in the exact same position as u and sometimes i just feel like u really are on yr own kid. others not gonna understand wt u want and u just have to have a strong belief and put in the work for yourself
I was happier waking up at 4:30am, cause' is so quiet and perfect for listen music, while i'm drawing, drinking some cofee or tea, and watching the first sun rays are very energetic.
It sounds like you’re already very intentional with your morning routines! Let’s keep harnessing the power and potential of early mornings to make each day count! ❤️🔥
Thank you so much for sharing this video. All other videos of waking up at 4:30am were done by people who don’t have children yet.. your video was so helpful and relatable to me as I am also a mother.. waking up early would mean so much to me, to get a moment of peace and quiet, to achieve my personal goals in life.. I can never sit and do my personal works with a peaceful mindset with my little toddlers wreaking havoc at home throughout the day. 😄
As a fellow mom of young kids, I completely understand! Waking up early in the morning became a form of self-care for me. When the kids are very young and not sleeping through the night, waking up early might not be possible. But as they grow older and establish regular routines, like going to preschool, I felt it was the right time to reclaim my identity-not just as a mother, but as myself. I'm rooting for you, your family, and your goals! 🙏
Likewise. When I started to intentionally wake up early for me to take a walk/jog, it gave me a sense of freedom and boost of energy. I am a first time mom, and my toddler is really at the stage of being "clingy," and setting aside time for myself is really important. I am both a mom and an architect, and both are really time consuming. 😅😅😅
@@amihandecastro9139 It sounds like, even as a first-time mom, you're doing an amazing job taking care of yourself and your family! Way to go, fellow mama! 💪 P.S. I worked at an architectural company for a while, so I understand how meticulous your job can be!
Fellow mom here, totally agree! My personal work goals have totally been hampered with lack of time and I keep trying to wake up early but these little guys need me in the night too 😫 hoping to get this early morning thing going
I'm agree that the pain of no change is bigger. I'm in that situation right now. I regreted my last 5 years elevate nothing from myself. This video encourage me to learn something continuously right now.
I’m so glad the messages in my video resonated with you. I believe that, in some ways, our lives need to reach a certain point before we’re ready to make a change. I hope my video can serve as a gentle nudge on your morning journey! 🌞
I love your content . Since I watched your vlog last week I was encouraged to wake up at 4:30 am. Today is my 10th day🎉. Been struggling at the 1st week but I thank the Lord he is giving me the will power to do it. You are right when u said you should have reason or your big why for waking up at 4:30 am. Hope you make more content of self improvement. God bless u more ❤
Wow! I’m so glad you found value in the tips I shared ☺️. Comments and blessings like yours truly lift my spirit. I pray that you continue to find peace and strength in your morning journey 🌞💖
I want back to school and work with math. I have 4 small children 9 , 8 ,5 ,2 yrs . Its so hard to me toget up early but its so easy for me to stay late night. So I am so happy to see u here.
Wow! Four kids! You have my utmost respect-I feel like my hands are full with just two! What a blessing it is! I resonate with what you’ve shared, especially as a busy mom of young kids. I'm rooting for you on your morning journey 🌞
I got up today at 5 am. I was so tired and said I won’t do that again I thought it just wasn’t for me but then your video popped up. You have inspired me to give another shot. Thank you I will follow some of your tips.
Where you were in 2020 is where I’ve been the last couple of years. I don’t have a family, but I hate what I’m doing and reaching deadends looking for something new. Two things I’ve been pursuing slowly is learning Korean (I saw your parallel Bible) and writing. Watching your video made me wonder if God wants me to use this time to build more disciplines in my life. I’m exhausted and watching Netflix at night too. I want to do more for Him and spending morning hours learning new things might be the ticket. I already enjoy reading His Word and praying first thing but otherwise mornings are a stress of getting ready and rushing to the office (where I dread going). Thank you for your encouragement. I need to do something different to have a different outcome than I have now. 감사합니다^^
First of all, I wish to send you a virtual hug. Thank you for opening up and sharing your story so honestly. I admire your passion for God’s Word, and I believe He has incredible plans in store for you. Amen! You are made for so much more, and I pray that through quiet mornings, you’ll feel more in tune with your calling. I know it’s easier said than done, but please don’t give up! 축복합니다! 🙏
Now i am 23 years old. When i was in school, I used to wake up at 4:00 AM for study. Sometimes even at 3:00 AM when there was final exams of class. Now i wake up at 9:00 AM when i am 23. I miss my old self. I was more mature as kid than now. I didn't needed alarm to wake up. I automatically woke up every day at 4:00 AM. But i can tell you that best time to study is early morning. Your brain works best at that time. I was topper in every class. My brain was very sharp.
Same here. To make you feel better, in school we have an external structure that makes us have more energy and willpower to evolve ourselves. With adulthood, all structure of your life depends on you (not your parents, predictability of school calendar, etc). So that consumes more energy, leads to decision fatigue and even things that makes us feel good before are harder to do. Reflecting on your habits, therapy and being compassionate is the best. I'm quitting screen time at night, at least 1 hour before sleep. the quality of my sleep improved so much. Research says kindle like screen doesn't affect sleep quality, so I read on kindle or use a palma phone if i want to look through some app
truthfully, eating properly and leading an organized life, helps one feel energized early in the morning. Asians generally eat much better than the rest of us, and that is a huge advantage. Be the Change in your own world everyone! Thank you for this video!
Brilliant routine and also really enjoyed the video. I'm also a morning person and following the very same routine, difference is that i recite the holy Quran and offer my prayers and lastly I'm student of science. Found many new techniques in this video and I'll try my best to adopt these to achieve much better results. Keep it up!
There is so much wisdom and profound thoughts in this vlog. Not having a compelling reason is exactly the reason I don't want to get up. As soon as you said it I knew that is what I have to work on. I do read scripture for 30 mins but tend to use the Bible app, put on play and then often drop off to sleep. Thank you for this vlog. I will be watching a few times more and developed that compelling reason.
Oh, thank you for your kind words! I’m so glad you found value in my video. May you rediscover the power of early mornings to find balance and peace in God’s grace. 🙏
One thing is for sure that you are so well spoken and your way of speaking is so politeful, thank you soooo much for such a wonderful and inspiring video 😊👏👏👌👌👍👍
thank you,your video help me a lot!,seriously... i am a languages learner that learn 3 languages (english,spanish and arabic) but lately i feel so busy,i usually wake up at 6.00 am tbh,my work start at 6.30 until 3.30 pm everyday and i dont have any time for my self at the morning,this video remains me of that❤
I’m so glad you found value in the tips I’ve shared. I hope my video can serve as a gentle nudge towards your personal goals and help refresh your morning routine 🌞
thank you for making this video! Follow your instructions, before sleep,I prepared the materials for the coming morning task. And it just worked! After wake up around 5:30am, I walk outside, get exposed to the sun(from other TH-camr’s advice) and buy the breakfast for my family. Before leaving home at 8:30am, I have 2 more hours doing my own business. I also become more confident when I achieve the daily morning wake up goal. Thanks again for your sharing! The best useful wake up videos on the TH-cam❤
Aww, your kind message truly touched my heart and uplifted my spirit. Cheers to your dedication in applying these tips to your life! I sincerely hope you continue to pursue and achieve your goals and dreams through the quietly powerful early mornings ❤️🔥 Thank you for your lovely comment!
Excellent idea about moving to a different room. Writing everything down with some detail on my calendar the night before. And preparing my Bible,Devotionals, Journals, and crafting supplies too. Yes! I know I can do it! I mean I will try my best!! Thank you!!! You’re AWESOME!!!💯🙏🏻😊⛱️
I am a miracle morning member... After reading the miracle morning book, it revolutionalized my life. In fact, I opened my TH-cam channel after that encounter... Your WHY is all it takes
Praise the lord Sister. Thank you so much for wonderful and practical sharing of wake up early. I learnt and gathered much significant insights from your lovely sharing. God bless❤
That's a great question. It made me think for a while to come up with a helpful answer. 🤔 I believe it’s not easy for anyone to have a 'compelling reason' to wake up right from the beginning, and it can change throughout our life journey. And that’s okay-in fact, it’s perfectly healthy. Finding 'that reason' can be understood as discovering what you love or even who you are. So, I think it's important to take time to reflect on yourself-what you love, what you don’t like, what makes you smile, and what you want to become. Try learning different things, follow your heart, and explore. Sometimes, your reason to wake up doesn’t come automatically, but in the process of learning and exploring, you might find something that gives you purpose. In fact, the process of finding your reason could be your reason to wake up. Consider journaling, reviewing and planning your life or even just your day. I’m not sure if this fully answers your question, but I believe that by asking such a genuine and thoughtful question, you're already on the path to finding your own reason for waking up in the morning. 👍⏰
Thank you so much Ma'am for answering my query. You have answered it perfectly. You have shown a direction. I have also tried to get up early before but failed repeatedly. I will Again give it a try.
I love the say you support each of us and share your personal experiences. I think this video is one of the most calming and inspiring at the same time. Thank you
Oh, thank you for your sweet comment-it means so much to me! I hope you found some helpful tips in the video to brighten your day and set a positive tone! 🌞💖
Thank you so much for your inspiring video. Emphasizing" the reason or purpose of waking up has to be strong enough to make you want to repeat to do it and repeat the routine" was the missing piece I needed. Thank you.🌺🌺
Great info. Thank you for sharing. I have been getting up around 4:30am for a year or so now, though I am not always consistent. A few things that have helped me be more consistent recently are: Setting a nightly alarm for about 30 minutes before I plan to be in bed. That way I can prepare and be down with enough time to wind down for sleep. Planning to be in bed with more than enough time to meet my sleep goal. It typically takes anywhere from 20-45 minutes to fall asleep. So, if I am aiming for 8 hours of sleep, I plan to be in bed for 8.5-9 hours. For the longest time I would aim for 8 hours of sleep, but would only allot 8 hours in bed. I would only get about 6 to 7 hours of sleep. Being consistent in my bed and wake up times even on the weekends. I find it harder to wake up early when I am not consistent, especially when I would prefer sleeping in. This is the biggest struggle for me.
Thank you for sharing your genuine story and kind words. I resonate with what you’ve shared. Planning downtime and maintaining a consistent bedtime are crucial for sustaining a healthy and balanced morning routine in the long run. I hope you found some helpful tips in the video to brighten your day and set a positive tone! 🌞💖
Thank you for this video! I've been waking up at 430am daily too to do household chores & have personal time before heading out to work. This video reinforces the reasons why I love waking up early! Subbed! 😊
Since young I always wake up around 4:30 or 5 am and now with 2 kids (toddlers) they always wakes up around 4:30 or 5 am , they sleep around 5:30 pm as well. Setting routine is really good :)
In ancient Indian texts based on our ancient medicinal practices ayurvedas etc (idk exact term for it), this time of 4.30 is called as Brahmha Muhrat. It is the best time to start anything, especially a day. The most effective period. Lovely video, very informative. Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing that insightful information about the "Brahma Muhurta" - it truly adds another layer of understanding to this powerful time of day! 🙏
I'm totally with you! When I didn’t wake up early, I felt like I was always rushing and caught in the repetitive cycle of daily responsibilities😞 I’m rooting for your mornings!
I've been waking up at 7 and go to work at 7.30 every day. and feeling tireddddd for the whole day, I started to change my wake-up time to 5.30 and I feel fresh the whole day! I did my morning pray and some affirmation and reading few pages too. Amazing!
I find myself in the spot where I feel static in life with no sense of self growth. I loved it when you said the pain of not making any change becomes greater than the pain of waking up. Thank you for the inspiring tips. ❤
Oh, thank you for your sweet comment 💕I'm so glad you found value in the tips I’ve shared. Let’s keep growing and inspiring each other on our morning journey!
Me as a Muslim and other Muslims too might wake at 3am to pray the first prayer of the day Salat-ul-Fajr as our beloved Prophet Muhammed (peace be upon him )taught us Such an amazing religion ❤
Same with Hinduism, "Brahma Muhurta is from 4 am to 5:30 am and is considered to be an auspicious time of the day. It is believed that getting up early and doing your work within this time frame will pave the way for success.". Especially South Indian(not affected much by religious invasions) Hindu wedding, and all festivals, happen at the early mornings. Our last prayer is at 6PM, after which we do a short prayer before we go to bed. My parents were religious we followed all this, early dinner, early to bed were all mocked by others - who were also Hindus, but now the same concepts are trending XD
This is the best video for me, l tried so many ways to find a reason why l couldn’t commit in getting up early and you gave me the answer…l need to find the reason why l want to build this new routine ❤thank u so much ❤
Can you please make more videos on how to combine work and family, how you structures your day and stay strong and healthy? When I get up at 5 I am soooo tired after 10 and my mood starts to paint everything black eventhough I love the morning peace itself ❤ apreciate a lot that you share ❤
Thank you for your honest comment! I can definitely relate-staying energetic throughout the whole day after waking up early is certainly a different challenge. I’ll be sure to consider the topic of maintaining a healthy, sustainable balance between work, life, and family for future content. Please stay tuned! 🌿
That is such a sweet comment-thank you for your kind words! I’m so glad you found the video helpful for setting up your mornings in a more powerful way 🌞💖
This was one of the most helpful morning routine video I’ve watched! Love how down to earth and authentic you are and all of you tips resonated with me. I too found I have more energy and an easier time waking up at 4:30 am than 5 and keept trying to make myself sleep until 5 only to be really grumpy. Now I know why and can stop trying to stay in bed longer and just embrace it!
Thank you for your lovely comment! 💕 I completely understand-there was a time when I thought waking up at 5 a.m. instead of 4:30 a.m. would make me feel more rested. But I found that I often felt even more tired or couldn't wake up at all at 5 a.m. I wish you all the best for your beautiful mornings! 🌞
Hi! I’m so glad I came to your channel. This is what I really needed. I am a morning person since 2020 when I started working. At around 8:30~10pm, I would already feel tired and sleepy, so I sleep before 10pm. My routine is when I wake up, I prepare my 2 kids’ things for daycare, do some chores like washing clothes, or making obento if needed. 30 minutes of the routine is my me-time coffee routine when I just love the peacefulness while drinking coffee. Because of this routine, I could wake up at around 4:30am WITHOUT alarm, as I had already established my body clock. For context, I work as a nurse (I start my work at 8:30am), and I’m tired physically, emotionally, and mentally. I do all these until now since 2020 repeatedly, and just like you, I feel overwhelmed, tired that I would just like to watch any movies or eat any food to compromise what I am feeling. How did you overcome this stage? Any other tips would be much appreciated. Thank you for your sharing this informative video! ❤
I really resonate with what you've shared, especially as a busy mom of young kids. I also have so much respect for your work as a nurse-my mom was a nurse too! Waking up early is one thing, but sustaining energy throughout the day is another challenge. That’s why I created this video to share some of the tips that have helped me maintain my energy and focus after waking up early. I hope these tips can help boost your energy and make your day more productive! th-cam.com/video/Cv33GkibYtc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=q6RllHX4i92hjF9x 🙏💖
Thank you! I’m going to do this today. I have insomnia so I often don’t sleep til 5 am. It’s awful, but I’m going to get up, take out puppy for some fun and get some sun on my face. I liked the “prepare the night before” tip best. I have a long list of things I want to accomplish, but ironically, I’ve been a working (and teaching) calligrapher for 35 years. Cheers~
I’m so glad you found value in some of the tips I’ve shared! ☺️ I’ve really noticed that doing some 'mental preparation' the night before makes a huge difference in my productivity. And 35 years of teaching calligraphy?! That’s impressive!! ❤️🔥
We, muslim, we have to wake up at dawn (around 4 a.m here in Indonesia) to perform Subuh prayer everyday, masyaallah. 😊 Dawn time is actually a special time because it has many excellence in Islam. Thus, we, muslim, are encouraged to wake up early at dawn to pray Subuh, dzikr, and start the day with positive activities. ❤️
@@jilliananny7154 any prove to support your claim? in islam, it is makrooh to go back to sleep after fajr (dawn) prayer. so yeah, muslims most likely to stay awake untill the sun is fully rise
@@HBlaine I don’t need to prove anything to you. It’s simply a fact. I didn’t say every single Muslim-I’m referring to most of those around me. Whether you believe me or not makes no difference.
Yes! The lack of a reason to wake up earlier is exactly why it doesn't stick for me. I love waking up early for the airport or for an activity that other people are expecting me for. It's exciting and energizing that way - I'm trying to brainstorm ways that I can do that for myself everyday.
Brilliant! It's fascinating how our mind influences our body's reactions. Experimenting and finding ways to get our brain excited for our airport trips is definitely key! ❤️🔥
I have to get back doing "SAVERS" Scriptures reading, Affirmations, Vision board(goals), Exercise, Reading & Scriping(journaling). Which has brought me to Liz's channel😊 & hopefully get me back on track in last quarter of the year.
TH-cam has sent me a real gem 🤗. This is exactly what I need I have been trying to give myself time for me in the evenings for a while now, things always get in the way , it’s been driving me crazy….. Morning routine time for me 😳 it’s a no brainier but I have never ever thought about it. I’m a start things new on a Monday and tomorrow just happens to be Monday . My time has a start thank you x
This all absolutely matches with my own experiences. I'm a practicing muslim and we have fajr to pray just before sunrise, and after sun rises it is not recommended to sleep for 45 minutes, as this is the time of the day that you start your work and it is an extremely important period to get ahead as it has a lot of barakah. We also have hadith saying we shouldn't stay up too late after praying the isha, which is the evening/night prayer. All this combined, I've experienced a huge amount of peace and efficiency from my days where I go to bed early and wake up early. You also already wake up on your own after a while, at crazy hours like 4,5,6 AM, and you actually feel energized. The only exception to this is when my work schedule affects me, as I have very little time at evenings to actually do everything I need to do before going to bed early. This also showed me how work and economic state of a person can be a strong, very very hard to change cause for their unhealthy lifestyle, so while I'll absolutely stand by the point of waking up early, I also understand not all people will have the means to do so because you'll feel like a machine after a while and evening activities may also be a big temptation. Great video that touched on all the points I've personally experienced as well. 👍
Well said, and I truly appreciate you sharing what resonated with you and your own morning journey🌞 It’s so true that not everyone can afford waking up early every single day-it doesn’t have to be morning to find balance. For example, even for me, when my kids were younger and needed more care throughout the day and night, I couldn’t wake up early at the time. I believe that finding balance and contentment can be unique for each person. My hope is that by sharing my journey, others might discover and establish what works best for their own situation and style. Thank you again for your lovely comment!
thank you! I like your saying that "you need compelling and specific goal for morning wake up". Tried this morning, getting up at 5:40am, buy the breakfast and work on my slides for 1 hour
Thank you very much for sharing your insights! 😊❤ God bless you for putting HIM before calligraphy. 🤗 I needed to hear this. It will make this venture to be a morning person much easier and worthwhile.
Fantastic video! Great job breaking down the WHY and providing actionable tips. To me, I see this as supporting your Spiritual Health- our ability to know and pursue our purpose(s). What matters to you at your core, your essence, your soul, your spirit? In other words, what gets you out of bed each day. If you have a clear & compelling reason that matters to you, it nurtures you at your core. ☮️❤️🤝
Aww, your kind message really touched my heart and stopped me in my tracks today. I think my spirit needed to hear that. Thank you so much for your encouragement and kind words 🙏❤️🔥
This was an inspiring video. I used to wake up at 4am when I was in school, during our exams but it was a chore and I could never recreate that. Having a compelling reason to wake up, and the 'Pain of not making a significant change greater than the pain of waking early' resonated deeply for me. In India the time between 4 - 5am is considered auspicious where I grew up and we were told it was a special time and we can retain more of our studies if we wake up at that time. I am looking forward to being a morning person and I have already a list of things I am excited to do when I wake up early. Thank you for sharing your journey :)
What a beautiful message! My heart is full knowing that so many points in my video resonated with you. I'm thrilled to hear that you're 'excited' to explore your morning journey. I truly appreciate your kind words and wish you all the best on this path! 🌞
What an incredible video and very important! I am in IT and I do not really struggle to get up but I do my prayers right when I wake up at 5:30am, but I also want to learn new things in IT. This will help me a lot to do that. I am considering studying for some certifications, but need to fix the phone watching at night! Thanks so much for a great video!!
As someone who's trying to establish a better morning routine and waking up at 5am 0:37 this is exactly how it feels! 1. Reason I think my reason would be to have time for myself before the day begins where i can do things while the rest of my family are sleeping. I journal, work out, meditate and learn Korean in that time. Other time in the day would be busy or distracting for all that since i dont have a space of my own. 5:14 this is so on point! When i was trying to wake up early before, since I didn't have a clear schedule of things I wanted to do, the next morning I would snooze my alarm because I didn't remember anything important that would take me out of a comfortable bed 😂 I LOVED your video. Every single point aligns with what I've learned these past 2 months where I've been trying to regain control of my life and grow as a person and a profesional. Thank you!
I’m so glad you found value in the tips I’ve shared. I admire your perseverance in analyzing the problem without giving up. I hope my video offered potential solutions and tips to help you achieve your morning goals. You can definitely do it! I'm rooting for you on your morning journey 🌞
I truly appreciate how you've shared your challenging experience in such a relatable and straightforward way. As someone who also values a good start to the day, I find your approach inspiring and am motivated to apply some of these lessons myself. Thank you for breaking it down so clearly-it really resonates!
I appreciate your kind words! 🥰 I hope you found some helpful tips in the video to brighten your day and set a positive tone! I'm rooting for you on your morning journey 🌞
Thank you! I will try that starting today! I’ve always had a bad habit of postponing things I need to do and I keep feeling like I sleep too much (I go back to sleep after waking up). I hope I can use that time for prayer and scripture too ~
Congratulations. It is probably the most fundamentally necessary and beautiful habit for very productive And peaceful days. Make sure you maintain. Atleast until your 60.
I love that there is someone else who can wake up after 6.5 hours and says it’s ok! I’ve been shaming myself for not being able to get 8 hours of sleep for years! Yay, waking up early is a good thing!! It’s also easy when you’re going through perimenopause! 😅
I’m glad the messages in my video resonated with you. I’ve read that getting 7-9 hours of sleep is recommended, but for now, my schedule seems to work really well with 6.5-7 hours 🌞🌿 Thank you for your lovely comment!
I'm dealing with the perimenopause insomnia issue too. I've been awake since 1am and it's 3:30 am now. I would give anything to have some kind of a semblance of a healthy sleep schedule. I'm at a loss.
@@aquaseahorselove3939 I feel you so much. I’m trying all sorts of remedies right now even progesterone cream is not able to help me. I will circle back when I find one that works!! Wishing you peace during those awake hours in the middle of the night! You are not alone!!
I found out last week that I'm in full menopause at 45yo. I've found that I savor my sleep especially when I know my body needs it for proper recovery every night. About 9 years ago I was waking at 3am every morning and I would use that time to study, journal or work on my website at the time, sometimes until 7am. I've learned how to help ease my peri-menopausal symptoms since Jan this year. I made it a specific goal for me to learn how to regulate my hormonal imbalance through nutrition. I wouldn't say I've cracked the code yet, but I will say I feel so much more rested than I have felt the past 4 years. So maybe I'm on the right track...? Rest for me has been key. Improved nutrition with supplements over the past 6 months has reduced the frequency and intensity of my hot flashes. I take sage (this has worked great for my brain fog!) ginger, Manuka honey, berries, prebiotic foods like yogurt and oats, turmeric (in milk), ashwaganda, DIMM, fish oils, creatine, and recently started increasing my protein intake. Trying to increase my water intake. Reduce processed foods. etc... Strength training has also helped me tremendously but I always take 1-2 rest days after a day of working out (kickboxing and/or kettlebells). Hope you find the rhythm that works best for your body. Start off with a small change then another and another. Perimenopause is no joke!
I started waking up 3:40am in the morning to meditate and to be with God, to be with him is and to be empowered by him is what makes me wake up early and it’s unbelievable how much energy and peace I have throughout the day
Honestly, I've always struggled with waking up early. Every time I try, I end up failing, and I was just about to give up and switch to a night routine. But then I came across your video, and it gave me so much motivation. Thank you!
I’m so glad you found value in the tips I shared! I completely understand how it feels to struggle, hitting snooze day after day-I’ve been there too. But you’ve got this! I’m cheering you on as you embrace your morning journey 🌞
@@nicoletavesa269 In the video, I shared that I try not to stay up past 10:00 pm. (Waking up early doesn’t mean sacrificing sleep-it's important for a healthy and sustainable life.) I also aim for a 30-minute power nap during the day. While 7-8 hours of sleep is recommended, personally, 6.5 hours has been working well for me so far ☺
Immediately after waking up is typically when I feel at my worst, physically, mentally and emotionally, so dragging myself out of bed is an ordeal. A few years ago, I did get into the habit of waking between 2-3 AM to have a couple quiet hours alone, but this was mostly fear-motivated. The early schedule was nice in some ways, but I found it stressful to keep up. After a few months, when the weather started getting colder and I started feeling a winter slump in energy and mood, I went back to my normal habits of staying up late to have the night hours to myself. I kind of want to get back to an earlier schedule, but finding a compelling enough reason to wake up is my biggest hurdle.
Thank you so much for sharing your morning journey. 🙏 You’ve highlighted many important and relatable topics, such as our common struggles with anxiety and the added challenge of waking up early during cold, dark winter months. I’d suggest making your morning routine something you can share with others. Some people post their morning routines on social media (simple photos with a timestamp), which can provide feedback and interaction that might be motivating in the beginning. I’m rooting for your mornings! 🙌
Your voice and way of explaining made me watch the whole video. What a good coincidence it is, I Started to plan my day from yesterday and found your video today 😊 Thank you for making my Day ❤
There's other videos like this but YOURS caught my attention today! After playing pickleball off and on for 6 years, I now know I need to wake up early to improve my skills even more so I can pass it down to the next generation, in hopes of one of the students make it in the Olympics. Currently about 60 countries are playing pickleball; the Olympic committee requires at least 75 countries to consider. Thank you!!!
Thank you for your kind words and gesture. Pickleball is something I wasn't very familiar with, but I truly admire your passion and love for the sport. I sincerely hope you can share your gift with a wider audience and inspire the younger generation ❤️🔥 Cheers to harnessing the power of early mornings!
Woh what's that's texture
Wow love this content and your whole presentation. Thank you. :)
@@MRmrROro1 done...
78 years old. 4,30 every morning for 50 years. Because I love to hear the world wake up 😂. Then, into my studio to paint. Love, love, love it.❤
When do you go to sleep? 8:30?
@catetanenbaum2418 Yes, I am fine with 8 to 7 hours of sleep. It's a life habit 😊😊
That sounds like great life 👍
I am curious, do you get hungry and when do you start eating? I have no issue waking 430 but I start getting hungry if I meditate. Frustrating
@@peache8 have you tried eating a small meal and drinking a cup of water before meditatign yet? Or maybe some fruits?
It hit me when you said, "Sometimes, it's easier to make a hard decision when there are no other choices." Thank you for such an inspiring video.
ㅜ😮
Same thing here 😊
💯😇
Means when u have no other hard decision ,the decision u actually have is easy
Means yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery
Today is the present
And that's all it actually matters
Summary for me : 1. Have a clear reason.
2. Have a full preparation one night before.
3. Focus on Benefits with visualization.
4. Don't cut down the sleeping hours going to bed is equally important.
I really wanted to do this to boost my self esteem.
Beautifully summarized! I hope you found some helpful tips in the video to discover the power of early mornings to find your balance and peace 🌞
This comment is no less than a social work. How can I donate you sir
@@FlourishedHope do you believe in free will
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is mystery
Today is present.
Nobody knows what's the future
All we have is the present moment live it enjoy the process ☺️
Thank you
I LOVE waking up early. I go to bed around 10 and get up around 6. No phone until 9am. Have a cup of warm lemon water, sit outside in the sunrise and then do yoga before having breakfast. It’s a great way to start my day!
Your comment painted a beautiful picture in my mind. Let’s continue to savor our precious morning times! 🌞💖🌿
Lauren, do you drink coffee later on after your hot water with lemon? 🍋
@@peacelovejoyandhappiness I personally drink my coffee (decaf) or morning matcha AFTER my warm lemon water. I like to have the water first thing before ingesting anything else😊
@@laurenmcolletti thank you for your help. I’m going to get into a similar routine. I want to cleanse my body first thing with the 💦 and 🍋.
@@laurenmcolletti one more question please, do you consume any processed foods or sugars by chance? I feel that these options are the largest culprit to the human diet. Not too mention the bad fats too. Thoughts?
I think it is really good for depression and anxiety , to get up early , it gives you a little sense of achievement ,
Well said! As a mom of young kids, I’ve been waking up early as a form of self-care. It definitely helps me establish a sense of purpose, control, and peace of mind 😌
Never thought of that before, thx.
Yes, I see alot of older people getting up early, sweeping the yard, walking, jogging, stretching before the day begins. And I think this is a way of cancelling the mind before it gets a hold of you and messes up your day
Add on the cold plunge and you will achieve nirvana
Seems to work the other way around for me, im most restless, depressed an anxious when I wake up early. Kind of makes sense since usually ill be on less sleep plus the naturall stress hormones are higher the earlier you wake up. They usually peak around 3am and go down from there.
According to Sanathana Dharma, 4:30 AM is called the Bramha muhurtham that's when the gods are awake and it's said that when a person wakes up at that time and spends time on anything he wants to achieve he will achieve that.
Thank you for sharing that! I didn’t know 4:30 AM had a specific name. Early mornings are definitely something to treasure - they’re a magical time that our ancestors also knew and appreciated 🙏
Yes, this is beauty of sanathana dharma whenever I woke up at4:30 am or 3:00 am I thank prabhu for waking me early.
That what Islam says
You mean "god" and not "gods" right
He meant gods bro.. Hinduism has a lot of gods.. He just mentioned what it says in Hinduism and the belief around “Brahma Muhurtam” (specific early hours of the morning). Let’s please not make this thread a fight on Gods and religions.
As a Muslim, our religion has recommended that we wake up early before sunrise to perform the first prayer, which is the fajr prayer, and thank God for the blessings and gratitude. Our Prophet Muhammad also said, (meaning) that waking up early will be blessed and there will be enough time for everything.
البركة في البكور👍
I resonate with how waking up early can create such powerful and productive extra time in our limited 24 hours. Thank you for your lovely comment 🙏
In Spanish we have this quote: “Al que madruga, Dios le ayuda”, is básicamente the same principle, pues madrugar es levantarse antes del alba
Oh yes, early mornings offer a wonderful opportunity for personal reflection and rejuvenation, especially after a restful night's sleep. I typically wake up around 4:00 AM to enjoy some quiet time before work. My morning routine includes activities that help me start the day on a positive note, such as devotion, exercise, and preparing my meals. I also appreciate the cool, refreshing mornings in Jamaica, especially now that the days or so, so hot 🥵, up to 34° C. Thanks to God that I work in an air conditioned environment. As the old Jamaican saying goes, "Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise." There's certainly a lot of truth in that.
Agree. But when in the summer the crazies move the clock one hour behind and the last prayer is at midnight at the first at 4. People need to demand that they stop w summertime. Very unhealthy.
Thank you for encouragement, I actually wake up naturally 4:30am but thought just something wrong , went back to sleep to get up at 5:45am and I am more tired. Thank you I will just get up now at 4:30pm to do my time with Bible and fun things that I want to focus on :)
Aww, I’m so happy the messages in my video resonated with you! The difference between waking up at 4:30 am and 5:30 am was a mystery to me too, until I learned more about the body clock! ☺️
I love the fact that you emphasized "I can't stress enough how important it is to have enough sleep" And I couldn't agree more that waking up early is not havng less sleep but shifting the whole life schedule.
Well said! I'm glad you liked the video and that the tips resonated with you!
Amazing. I have been sleeping 9:30 to 5 for years (I am 58) and have thought something was wrong with me and wanted to sleep in a bit longer, especially at the weekend.
But, I use my early morning to meditate and go out cycling in the summer (static bike in winter) and have lost weight and improved my fitness.
I guess my body clock has adjusted as I am always up by 5 without fail and never set an alarm.
I will start to see this as a gift rather than a curse from now on. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your story! It's interesting how we sometimes have preconceptions that hinder us from fully appreciating our own gifts and uniqueness. I’m so glad my video offered a gentle nudge toward embracing the freedom to view your body clock in a new light! 💖
Thats 7.5 hours thats enough.
I sleep 3-5hours a day and rush out of the house every morning forbthe last 5 years
I dont think you realise how helpful this video is for me... I'm struggling to achieve my goals and no one around me gets it.. They are good loving people but they just dont understand what i am struggling with... Becoming a morning person is the way to go... I will achieve my dreams... No matter what.. Once again Thank you soo much for this video... God bless you

You got this! We got this. 🎉
damnnnn im in the exact same position as u and sometimes i just feel like u really are on yr own kid. others not gonna understand wt u want and u just have to have a strong belief and put in the work for yourself
I was happier waking up at 4:30am, cause' is so quiet and perfect for listen music, while i'm drawing, drinking some cofee or tea, and watching the first sun rays are very energetic.
It sounds like you’re already very intentional with your morning routines! Let’s keep harnessing the power and potential of early mornings to make each day count! ❤️🔥
@FlourishedHope like your name.. every morning is a flourished hope for us to enjoy life ! .. i send you a warm hug¡
This is by far the most honest and unique video about waking up early I have come across.
Oh, thank you for your sweet comment 💕 I hope you found some helpful tips in the video to brighten your day and set a positive tone! 🌞
Thank you so much for sharing this video. All other videos of waking up at 4:30am were done by people who don’t have children yet.. your video was so helpful and relatable to me as I am also a mother.. waking up early would mean so much to me, to get a moment of peace and quiet, to achieve my personal goals in life.. I can never sit and do my personal works with a peaceful mindset with my little toddlers wreaking havoc at home throughout the day. 😄
As a fellow mom of young kids, I completely understand! Waking up early in the morning became a form of self-care for me. When the kids are very young and not sleeping through the night, waking up early might not be possible. But as they grow older and establish regular routines, like going to preschool, I felt it was the right time to reclaim my identity-not just as a mother, but as myself. I'm rooting for you, your family, and your goals! 🙏
Likewise. When I started to intentionally wake up early for me to take a walk/jog, it gave me a sense of freedom and boost of energy. I am a first time mom, and my toddler is really at the stage of being "clingy," and setting aside time for myself is really important. I am both a mom and an architect, and both are really time consuming. 😅😅😅
@@amihandecastro9139 It sounds like, even as a first-time mom, you're doing an amazing job taking care of yourself and your family! Way to go, fellow mama! 💪 P.S. I worked at an architectural company for a while, so I understand how meticulous your job can be!
Fellow mom here, totally agree! My personal work goals have totally been hampered with lack of time and I keep trying to wake up early but these little guys need me in the night too 😫 hoping to get this early morning thing going
@6:40 JadyA. Homeschooling timetable had so much with 5 children
I'm agree that the pain of no change is bigger. I'm in that situation right now. I regreted my last 5 years elevate nothing from myself. This video encourage me to learn something continuously right now.
I’m so glad the messages in my video resonated with you. I believe that, in some ways, our lives need to reach a certain point before we’re ready to make a change. I hope my video can serve as a gentle nudge on your morning journey! 🌞
I love your content . Since I watched your vlog last week I was encouraged to wake up at 4:30 am. Today is my 10th day🎉. Been struggling at the 1st week but I thank the Lord he is giving me the will power to do it. You are right when u said you should have reason or your big why for waking up at 4:30 am. Hope you make more content of self improvement. God bless u more ❤

I got up today at 5 am. I was so tired and said I won’t do that again I thought it just wasn’t for me but then your video popped up. You have inspired me to give another shot. Thank you I will follow some of your tips.
Oh, I am glad the video popped up in the right timing! I hope you found practical tips in the video for your morning journey 🌞
Hi, I too wake up at 04:00 AM and study/meditate. Love from India.
Where you were in 2020 is where I’ve been the last couple of years. I don’t have a family, but I hate what I’m doing and reaching deadends looking for something new. Two things I’ve been pursuing slowly is learning Korean (I saw your parallel Bible) and writing. Watching your video made me wonder if God wants me to use this time to build more disciplines in my life. I’m exhausted and watching Netflix at night too. I want to do more for Him and spending morning hours learning new things might be the ticket. I already enjoy reading His Word and praying first thing but otherwise mornings are a stress of getting ready and rushing to the office (where I dread going). Thank you for your encouragement. I need to do something different to have a different outcome than I have now. 감사합니다^^
First of all, I wish to send you a virtual hug. Thank you for opening up and sharing your story so honestly. I admire your passion for God’s Word, and I believe He has incredible plans in store for you. Amen! You are made for so much more, and I pray that through quiet mornings, you’ll feel more in tune with your calling. I know it’s easier said than done, but please don’t give up! 축복합니다! 🙏
Now i am 23 years old. When i was in school, I used to wake up at 4:00 AM for study. Sometimes even at 3:00 AM when there was final exams of class. Now i wake up at 9:00 AM when i am 23. I miss my old self. I was more mature as kid than now. I didn't needed alarm to wake up. I automatically woke up every day at 4:00 AM. But i can tell you that best time to study is early morning. Your brain works best at that time. I was topper in every class. My brain was very sharp.
Same here. To make you feel better, in school we have an external structure that makes us have more energy and willpower to evolve ourselves. With adulthood, all structure of your life depends on you (not your parents, predictability of school calendar, etc). So that consumes more energy, leads to decision fatigue and even things that makes us feel good before are harder to do. Reflecting on your habits, therapy and being compassionate is the best. I'm quitting screen time at night, at least 1 hour before sleep. the quality of my sleep improved so much. Research says kindle like screen doesn't affect sleep quality, so I read on kindle or use a palma phone if i want to look through some app
@@clarinha4396yeah i second thissss！！！i dont think many of us realize how important an external structure is until u dont have one
truthfully, eating properly and leading an organized life, helps one feel energized early in the morning. Asians generally eat much better than the rest of us, and that is a huge advantage. Be the Change in your own world everyone! Thank you for this video!
Your comment made me appreciate my Asian background even more. Thank you for your kind and encouraging words 💕
Brilliant routine and also really enjoyed the video. I'm also a morning person and following the very same routine, difference is that i recite the holy Quran and offer my prayers and lastly I'm student of science. Found many new techniques in this video and I'll try my best to adopt these to achieve much better results. Keep it up!
There is so much wisdom and profound thoughts in this vlog. Not having a compelling reason is exactly the reason I don't want to get up. As soon as you said it I knew that is what I have to work on.
I do read scripture for 30 mins but tend to use the Bible app, put on play and then often drop off to sleep.
Thank you for this vlog. I will be watching a few times more and developed that compelling reason.
Oh, thank you for your kind words! I’m so glad you found value in my video. May you rediscover the power of early mornings to find balance and peace in God’s grace. 🙏
I get up at 4.30am. It's great, some meditation, yoga, qigong... A great start to the day!

After wake up around 5:30am, I walk outside, get exposed to the sun(from other TH-camr’s advice) and buy the breakfast for my family. Before leaving home at 8:30am, I have 2 more hours doing my own business. I also become more confident when I achieve the daily morning wake up goal. Thanks again for your sharing!

aww Thank you so much for your kind words and blessings 🙏💖
Very well explained... Ma'am, please tell me what should I do if I don't have any compelling reason to get up early and still want to get up early.
That's a great question. It made me think for a while to come up with a helpful answer. 🤔
I believe it’s not easy for anyone to have a 'compelling reason' to wake up right from the beginning, and it can change throughout our life journey. And that’s okay-in fact, it’s perfectly healthy.
Finding 'that reason' can be understood as discovering what you love or even who you are. So, I think it's important to take time to reflect on yourself-what you love, what you don’t like, what makes you smile, and what you want to become.
Try learning different things, follow your heart, and explore. Sometimes, your reason to wake up doesn’t come automatically, but in the process of learning and exploring, you might find something that gives you purpose. In fact, the process of finding your reason could be your reason to wake up.
Consider journaling, reviewing and planning your life or even just your day.
I’m not sure if this fully answers your question, but I believe that by asking such a genuine and thoughtful question, you're already on the path to finding your own reason for waking up in the morning. 👍⏰
Thank you so much Ma'am for answering my query. You have answered it perfectly. You have shown a direction. I have also tried to get up early before but failed repeatedly. I will Again give it a try.
D
you're reason is unrealized to your conscious. Your soul knows and it manifests as your want to get up early.
When I don't have reason, I woke up and see youtubes so that I keep engaged and do not sleep. It works
Well-organized and delivered! Waking up early feels much more achievable when presented with such consideration of the usual pitfalls. Thank you! 🙏🏻
Such a decent lady I ever seen .... Stay blessed for the sharing ma'am ...

Great info. Thank you for sharing. I have been getting up around 4:30am for a year or so now, though I am not always consistent. A few things that have helped me be more consistent recently are:
Setting a nightly alarm for about 30 minutes before I plan to be in bed. That way I can prepare and be down with enough time to wind down for sleep.
Planning to be in bed with more than enough time to meet my sleep goal. It typically takes anywhere from 20-45 minutes to fall asleep. So, if I am aiming for 8 hours of sleep, I plan to be in bed for 8.5-9 hours. For the longest time I would aim for 8 hours of sleep, but would only allot 8 hours in bed. I would only get about 6 to 7 hours of sleep.
Being consistent in my bed and wake up times even on the weekends. I find it harder to wake up early when I am not consistent, especially when I would prefer sleeping in. This is the biggest struggle for me.
Thank you for sharing your genuine story and kind words. I resonate with what you’ve shared. Planning downtime and maintaining a consistent bedtime are crucial for sustaining a healthy and balanced morning routine in the long run. I hope you found some helpful tips in the video to brighten your day and set a positive tone! 🌞💖
Thank you for this video! I've been waking up at 430am daily too to do household chores & have personal time before heading out to work. This video reinforces the reasons why I love waking up early! Subbed! 😊

Since young I always wake up around 4:30 or 5 am and now with 2 kids (toddlers) they always wakes up around 4:30 or 5 am , they sleep around 5:30 pm as well. Setting routine is really good :)
In ancient Indian texts based on our ancient medicinal practices ayurvedas etc (idk exact term for it), this time of 4.30 is called as Brahmha Muhrat. It is the best time to start anything, especially a day. The most effective period.
Lovely video, very informative. Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing that insightful information about the "Brahma Muhurta" - it truly adds another layer of understanding to this powerful time of day! 🙏
I wanted to have slow mornings, maybe this should be my motivation to wake up earlier
I'm totally with you! When I didn’t wake up early, I felt like I was always rushing and caught in the repetitive cycle of daily responsibilities😞 I’m rooting for your mornings!
I've been waking up at 7 and go to work at 7.30 every day. and feeling tireddddd for the whole day, I started to change my wake-up time to 5.30 and I feel fresh the whole day! I did my morning pray and some affirmation and reading few pages too. Amazing!
I mean, this type of content needs to be promoted more. Helpful and informative ❤
aww, thank you for your sweet comment 💕 I hope you found helpful tips in the video for your morning journey 🌞
I find myself in the spot where I feel static in life with no sense of self growth. I loved it when you said the pain of not making any change becomes greater than the pain of waking up. Thank you for the inspiring tips. ❤

Me as a Muslim and other Muslims too might wake at 3am to pray the first prayer of the day Salat-ul-Fajr as our beloved Prophet Muhammed (peace be upon him )taught us
Such an amazing religion ❤
صلي الله وسلم علي سيدنا محمد❤
اللهم صلي علي سيدنا محمد
❤❤ اللهم صلي على النبي محمد وعلى آله وأصحابه أجمعين
Same with Hinduism, "Brahma Muhurta is from 4 am to 5:30 am and is considered to be an auspicious time of the day. It is believed that getting up early and doing your work within this time frame will pave the way for success.". Especially South Indian(not affected much by religious invasions) Hindu wedding, and all festivals, happen at the early mornings. Our last prayer is at 6PM, after which we do a short prayer before we go to bed. My parents were religious we followed all this, early dinner, early to bed were all mocked by others - who were also Hindus, but now the same concepts are trending XD
الحمد لله على نعمة الإسلام و كفى بها نعمة
I’m up everyday between 4-430 am. Love it.
Almost gave up on the idea of waking up early but this is just the motivation I needed will try again
I’m so glad you found value in the tips I’ve shared. I’m rooting for you on your morning journey 🌞
This is the best video for me, l tried so many ways to find a reason why l couldn’t commit in getting up early and you gave me the answer…l need to find the reason why l want to build this new routine ❤thank u so much ❤
I’m so glad you found value in the tips I’ve shared. I'm rooting for you on your morning journey 🌞
Can you please make more videos on how to combine work and family, how you structures your day and stay strong and healthy?
When I get up at 5 I am soooo tired after 10 and my mood starts to paint everything black eventhough I love the morning peace itself ❤ apreciate a lot that you share ❤
Thank you for your honest comment! I can definitely relate-staying energetic throughout the whole day after waking up early is certainly a different challenge. I’ll be sure to consider the topic of maintaining a healthy, sustainable balance between work, life, and family for future content. Please stay tuned! 🌿
Your story about finding peace in early mornings is so inspiring! Makes me want to give my snooze button a break. 😅
lol I appreciate your kind words! 🥰 I'm rooting for you on your morning journey! 🌞
In Hinduism this time is called Brahma Muhurt..
And its very suitable for yog and pranayam practice
This was the most useful and helpful video in the entirety of TH-cam. Thank you so much.
That is such a sweet comment-thank you for your kind words! I’m so glad you found the video helpful for setting up your mornings in a more powerful way 🌞💖
This was one of the most helpful morning routine video I’ve watched! Love how down to earth and authentic you are and all of you tips resonated with me. I too found I have more energy and an easier time waking up at 4:30 am than 5 and keept trying to make myself sleep until 5 only to be really grumpy. Now I know why and can stop trying to stay in bed longer and just embrace it!
Thank you for your lovely comment! 💕 I completely understand-there was a time when I thought waking up at 5 a.m. instead of 4:30 a.m. would make me feel more rested. But I found that I often felt even more tired or couldn't wake up at all at 5 a.m. I wish you all the best for your beautiful mornings! 🌞
Great video! Very helpful. One thing I love about the mornings is the lack of interruptions from phone calls, people knocking on the door, etc.
I get that same magical feeling when I get home from work at 4:30AM
Hi! I’m so glad I came to your channel. This is what I really needed. I am a morning person since 2020 when I started working. At around 8:30~10pm, I would already feel tired and sleepy, so I sleep before 10pm. My routine is when I wake up, I prepare my 2 kids’ things for daycare, do some chores like washing clothes, or making obento if needed. 30 minutes of the routine is my me-time coffee routine when I just love the peacefulness while drinking coffee. Because of this routine, I could wake up at around 4:30am WITHOUT alarm, as I had already established my body clock. For context, I work as a nurse (I start my work at 8:30am), and I’m tired physically, emotionally, and mentally. I do all these until now since 2020 repeatedly, and just like you, I feel overwhelmed, tired that I would just like to watch any movies or eat any food to compromise what I am feeling. How did you overcome this stage? Any other tips would be much appreciated. Thank you for your sharing this informative video! ❤
I really resonate with what you've shared, especially as a busy mom of young kids. I also have so much respect for your work as a nurse-my mom was a nurse too!
Waking up early is one thing, but sustaining energy throughout the day is another challenge. That’s why I created this video to share some of the tips that have helped me maintain my energy and focus after waking up early. I hope these tips can help boost your energy and make your day more productive! th-cam.com/video/Cv33GkibYtc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=q6RllHX4i92hjF9x 🙏💖
Thank you! I’m going to do this today. I have insomnia so I often don’t sleep til 5 am. It’s awful, but I’m going to get up, take out puppy for some fun and get some sun on my face. I liked the “prepare the night before” tip best.
I have a long list of things I want to accomplish, but ironically, I’ve been a working (and teaching) calligrapher for 35 years. Cheers~
I’m so glad you found value in some of the tips I’ve shared! ☺️ I’ve really noticed that doing some 'mental preparation' the night before makes a huge difference in my productivity. And 35 years of teaching calligraphy?! That’s impressive!! ❤️🔥
You need a good sleep schedule Have you ever thought of taking cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for insomnia or meds. 5am is wild!
Winter is so very hard when its cold.stay under the covers until 07.00am that works.when youre happy and retired.no need for pm naps 😀🙏🙏
We, muslim, we have to wake up at dawn (around 4 a.m here in Indonesia) to perform Subuh prayer everyday, masyaallah. 😊
Dawn time is actually a special time because it has many excellence in Islam. Thus, we, muslim, are encouraged to wake up early at dawn to pray Subuh, dzikr, and start the day with positive activities. ❤️
after the prayer most muslim go back to the bed😂
@@jilliananny7154 any prove to support your claim? in islam, it is makrooh to go back to sleep after fajr (dawn) prayer. so yeah, muslims most likely to stay awake untill the sun is fully rise
@@HBlaine I don’t need to prove anything to you. It’s simply a fact. I didn’t say every single Muslim-I’m referring to most of those around me. Whether you believe me or not makes no difference.
@@jilliananny7154 the young maybe. The adults have plenty to do before go work.
@@shhas1483 plenty to do, right! one of them is sleeping 😴
I love the early mornings!!
Peace , quiet.. well I might add , coffee first!
Key is getting to bed early..
Yes! The lack of a reason to wake up earlier is exactly why it doesn't stick for me. I love waking up early for the airport or for an activity that other people are expecting me for. It's exciting and energizing that way - I'm trying to brainstorm ways that I can do that for myself everyday.
Brilliant! It's fascinating how our mind influences our body's reactions. Experimenting and finding ways to get our brain excited for our airport trips is definitely key! ❤️🔥
This is the problem I have, trying to think of a reason to get out of bed that makes me WANT to get out of bed 😕. I’m trying to find ideas…
I have to get back doing "SAVERS" Scriptures reading, Affirmations, Vision board(goals), Exercise, Reading & Scriping(journaling). Which has brought me to Liz's channel😊 & hopefully get me back on track in last quarter of the year.
@@brendaproulx3052 I really love the easy acronym S.A.V.E.R.S! 🥰 Thank you for sharing!
TH-cam has sent me a real gem 🤗.
This is exactly what I need I have been trying to give myself time for me in the evenings for a while now, things always get in the way , it’s been driving me crazy…..
Morning routine time for me 😳 it’s a no brainier but I have never ever thought about it.
I’m a start things new on a Monday and tomorrow just happens to be Monday .
My time has a start thank you x
Oh, thank you for your sweet comment 💕 I’m so glad you found value in the tips I’ve shared. I'm rooting for you on your morning journey 🌞
@@FlourishedHope I started today 5 am I achieved so much organised my morning routine for my first week of me time . Thanks so much for your reply. X
This all absolutely matches with my own experiences. I'm a practicing muslim and we have fajr to pray just before sunrise, and after sun rises it is not recommended to sleep for 45 minutes, as this is the time of the day that you start your work and it is an extremely important period to get ahead as it has a lot of barakah. We also have hadith saying we shouldn't stay up too late after praying the isha, which is the evening/night prayer. All this combined, I've experienced a huge amount of peace and efficiency from my days where I go to bed early and wake up early. You also already wake up on your own after a while, at crazy hours like 4,5,6 AM, and you actually feel energized. The only exception to this is when my work schedule affects me, as I have very little time at evenings to actually do everything I need to do before going to bed early. This also showed me how work and economic state of a person can be a strong, very very hard to change cause for their unhealthy lifestyle, so while I'll absolutely stand by the point of waking up early, I also understand not all people will have the means to do so because you'll feel like a machine after a while and evening activities may also be a big temptation. Great video that touched on all the points I've personally experienced as well. 👍
Well said, and I truly appreciate you sharing what resonated with you and your own morning journey🌞 It’s so true that not everyone can afford waking up early every single day-it doesn’t have to be morning to find balance. For example, even for me, when my kids were younger and needed more care throughout the day and night, I couldn’t wake up early at the time. I believe that finding balance and contentment can be unique for each person. My hope is that by sharing my journey, others might discover and establish what works best for their own situation and style. Thank you again for your lovely comment!
If you want to change your life then first change your wakeup time...thanks for motivation...
As a high productivity person who fell off the wagon, this is all true. And I'm not a morning person. But the reasoning and strategies are on point
I’m so glad the messages in my video resonated with you. I hope my video can serve as a gentle nudge towards your personal goals 🌿
This hands down is the best video I've ever seen on waking up early!!! Thankyou
aww I’m so glad you found it helpful! I hope you start waking up early feeling energized and ready to take on the day! 🌞💕
The fact that nobody talks about the book whispers of manifestation on borlest speaks volumes about how people are stuck in a trance
Where to find the book
Another AI garbage 🙄 stop spreading this everywhere…gah
Sounds like new age and demonic. Please be very careful when it comes to that. The bible is an excellent book to read. ❤
Guys this is a scam. I’ve seen this exact same comment word for word on many videos
Why did creator like this comment - scam
thank you! I like your saying that "you need compelling and specific goal for morning wake up". Tried this morning, getting up at 5:40am, buy the breakfast and work on my slides for 1 hour
I’m so glad the messages in my video resonated with you. I'm rooting for you on your morning journey! 🌞
Thank you very much for sharing your insights! 😊❤ God bless you for putting HIM before calligraphy. 🤗 I needed to hear this. It will make this venture to be a morning person much easier and worthwhile.
Oh, thank you for your sweet comment 💕 I hope you found helpful tips in the video for your morning journey 🙏🌞
Fantastic video! Great job breaking down the WHY and providing actionable tips. To me, I see this as supporting your Spiritual Health- our ability to know and pursue our purpose(s). What matters to you at your core, your essence, your soul, your spirit? In other words, what gets you out of bed each day. If you have a clear & compelling reason that matters to you, it nurtures you at your core.
☮️❤️🤝
Love you from Jordan 🇯🇴 Thank you ❤
Today I woke up at 9 am because I am suffering from depression 😢
Seek Jesus Christ ❤ He will set you free from deprssion. He did it for me❤❤
Thank you for your wisdom. God Is Using you for great things
Aww, your kind message really touched my heart and stopped me in my tracks today. I think my spirit needed to hear that. Thank you so much for your encouragement and kind words 🙏❤️🔥
This was an inspiring video. I used to wake up at 4am when I was in school, during our exams but it was a chore and I could never recreate that. Having a compelling reason to wake up, and the 'Pain of not making a significant change greater than the pain of waking early' resonated deeply for me. In India the time between 4 - 5am is considered auspicious where I grew up and we were told it was a special time and we can retain more of our studies if we wake up at that time. I am looking forward to being a morning person and I have already a list of things I am excited to do when I wake up early. Thank you for sharing your journey :)
What a beautiful message! My heart is full knowing that so many points in my video resonated with you. I'm thrilled to hear that you're 'excited' to explore your morning journey. I truly appreciate your kind words and wish you all the best on this path! 🌞
What an incredible video and very important! I am in IT and I do not really struggle to get up but I do my prayers right when I wake up at 5:30am, but I also want to learn new things in IT. This will help me a lot to do that. I am considering studying for some certifications, but need to fix the phone watching at night! Thanks so much for a great video!!
I’m excited to hear about your IT goals! I hope the tips in this video help you gain the time and focus to pursue them 🌞
As someone who's trying to establish a better morning routine and waking up at 5am 0:37 this is exactly how it feels!
1. Reason
I think my reason would be to have time for myself before the day begins where i can do things while the rest of my family are sleeping. I journal, work out, meditate and learn Korean in that time. Other time in the day would be busy or distracting for all that since i dont have a space of my own.
5:14 this is so on point! When i was trying to wake up early before, since I didn't have a clear schedule of things I wanted to do, the next morning I would snooze my alarm because I didn't remember anything important that would take me out of a comfortable bed 😂
I LOVED your video. Every single point aligns with what I've learned these past 2 months where I've been trying to regain control of my life and grow as a person and a profesional. Thank you!
I’m so glad you found value in the tips I’ve shared. I admire your perseverance in analyzing the problem without giving up. I hope my video offered potential solutions and tips to help you achieve your morning goals. You can definitely do it! I'm rooting for you on your morning journey 🌞

I truly appreciate how you've shared your challenging experience in such a relatable and straightforward way.

Life hack -> Get old. You go to bed earlier and wake up at 4.30am naturally :)
lol good one! 😂
@@FlourishedHopewhat time she go bed then ?
😂😂
I loved this video very much then.
Thank you! I will try that starting today! I’ve always had a bad habit of postponing things I need to do and I keep feeling like I sleep too much (I go back to sleep after waking up). I hope I can use that time for prayer and scripture too ~
I’m so glad the video gave you some hope for making a change-you’ve got this! 💪 I'm rooting for you on your morning journey 🌞

So many good points were made in this video
I love that there is someone else who can wake up after 6.5 hours and says it’s ok! I’ve been shaming myself for not being able to get 8 hours of sleep for years! Yay, waking up early is a good thing!! It’s also easy when you’re going through perimenopause! 😅
I’m glad the messages in my video resonated with you. I’ve read that getting 7-9 hours of sleep is recommended, but for now, my schedule seems to work really well with 6.5-7 hours 🌞🌿 Thank you for your lovely comment!
I'm dealing with the perimenopause insomnia issue too. I've been awake since 1am and it's 3:30 am now. I would give anything to have some kind of a semblance of a healthy sleep schedule. I'm at a loss.
@@aquaseahorselove3939 I feel you so much. I’m trying all sorts of remedies right now even progesterone cream is not able to help me. I will circle back when I find one that works!! Wishing you peace during those awake hours in the middle of the night! You are not alone!!

I found out last week that I'm in full menopause at 45yo. I've found that I savor my sleep especially when I know my body needs it for proper recovery every night. About 9 years ago I was waking at 3am every morning and I would use that time to study, journal or work on my website at the time, sometimes until 7am. I've learned how to help ease my peri-menopausal symptoms since Jan this year. I made it a specific goal for me to learn how to regulate my hormonal imbalance through nutrition. I wouldn't say I've cracked the code yet, but I will say I feel so much more rested than I have felt the past 4 years. So maybe I'm on the right track...?
Rest for me has been key.
Improved nutrition with supplements over the past 6 months has reduced the frequency and intensity of my hot flashes. I take sage (this has worked great for my brain fog!) ginger, Manuka honey, berries, prebiotic foods like yogurt and oats, turmeric (in milk), ashwaganda, DIMM, fish oils, creatine, and recently started increasing my protein intake. Trying to increase my water intake. Reduce processed foods. etc...
Strength training has also helped me tremendously but I always take 1-2 rest days after a day of working out (kickboxing and/or kettlebells).
Hope you find the rhythm that works best for your body. Start off with a small change then another and another. Perimenopause is no joke!
I started waking up 3:40am in the morning to meditate and to be with God, to be with him is and to be empowered by him is what makes me wake up early and it’s unbelievable how much energy and peace I have throughout the day
As a Muslim it’s a must to wake up between 4 and 5:30 to pray Tahajjud and our first prayer called Fajr… Thank you
Alhudulillah ❤
Honestly, I've always struggled with waking up early. Every time I try, I end up failing, and I was just about to give up and switch to a night routine. But then I came across your video, and it gave me so much motivation. Thank you!
I’m so glad you found value in the tips I shared! I completely understand how it feels to struggle, hitting snooze day after day-I’ve been there too. But you’ve got this! I’m cheering you on as you embrace your morning journey 🌞

Once you make the decision, the universe will take care of the rest 😀😀😀😀😀
Well said! 🙏💖
What time do you go to bed at night?
@@nicoletavesa269 In the video, I shared that I try not to stay up past 10:00 pm. (Waking up early doesn’t mean sacrificing sleep-it's important for a healthy and sustainable life.) I also aim for a 30-minute power nap during the day. While 7-8 hours of sleep is recommended, personally, 6.5 hours has been working well for me so far ☺
This has to be the most helpful video I've ever watched online. Thank you❤
Oh, thank you for your sweet comment 💕 I hope you found some helpful tips in the video to brighten your day and set a positive tone! ☺️
Immediately after waking up is typically when I feel at my worst, physically, mentally and emotionally, so dragging myself out of bed is an ordeal. A few years ago, I did get into the habit of waking between 2-3 AM to have a couple quiet hours alone, but this was mostly fear-motivated. The early schedule was nice in some ways, but I found it stressful to keep up. After a few months, when the weather started getting colder and I started feeling a winter slump in energy and mood, I went back to my normal habits of staying up late to have the night hours to myself.
I kind of want to get back to an earlier schedule, but finding a compelling enough reason to wake up is my biggest hurdle.
Thank you so much for sharing your morning journey. 🙏 You’ve highlighted many important and relatable topics, such as our common struggles with anxiety and the added challenge of waking up early during cold, dark winter months. I’d suggest making your morning routine something you can share with others. Some people post their morning routines on social media (simple photos with a timestamp), which can provide feedback and interaction that might be motivating in the beginning. I’m rooting for your mornings! 🙌
Some of us are night owls and it’s okay . Our circadian rhythms are different.
Also look into autism and ADHD
Your voice and way of explaining made me watch the whole video. What a good coincidence it is, I Started to plan my day from yesterday and found your video today 😊
Thank you for making my Day ❤
Oh, thank you for your sweet comment-it means so much to me! 💕 I hope the tips help you feel more energized and capable 🌞
