By the time you’ve checked your phone, answered the first message and found everyone’s shoes, the day already owns you. You didn’t get a single minute of it.
This is how you take some of it back.
One short practice every morning. Some standing, some breath, some you do half-asleep in bed before your feet touch the floor. The first week’s all fifteen minutes or less, so there’s nothing to dread. It’s the easiest habit you’ll ever keep, because it happens before the day can talk you out of it.
Thirty mornings from now, a calm start is just how your day begins.
