The Step-By-Step Morning Routine You Didn't Know You Needed

Mornings are the most important part of the day; it is the perfect time to prepare and set the tone for the hours ahead. A well-structured morning routine is the ideal way to ensure that your mental and physical well-being for the rest of the day is up to speed with everything it has in store. At Clearwater Mall, we have the perfect step-by-step morning routine (including some tasty breakfast recipes) to get you kick-started and ready for the day ahead.

Step number one to starting any day is waking up bright and early, drinking some water and getting a good stretch in. This is the perfect way to get your body hydrated from a long night's sleep and get your blood circulating.

We suggest grabbing a ready-to-go water bottle to put right next to your bed. Fill it up the night before; when you wake up, it’s right there to get you hydrated. To find an excellent selection of unique water bottles, visit Typo. With a selection of water bottles that have cool designs and are made of different materials, you can choose the ideal one for you.

You’ve probably heard this a thousand times before, but breakfast truly is the most important meal of the day! Here are some meal options that you can indulge in for breakfast: 

Make yourself a power shake packed with protein. Grab yourself a ripe banana, low-fat Greek yoghurt or milk, a cup of your favourite berries and some peanut butter. Blend it all together, and you have the ideal on-the-go breakfast meal. Quick and easy. 

If you want some extra protein, throw in a scoop of your favourite protein powder. You can find the ideal protein powder for you, along with many other items to customise your smoothie with, at Wellness Warehouse. 

Avo toast is a simple meal with so much substance, but every now and then, you need more than just avocado and the same-old bread. The key to the best avo toast is to find the perfect bread. At Woolworths, they have a wide variety of bread options for you to choose from.

Woolworths also has a range of products, like pickled onions and radish, chilli flakes and balsamic vinegar, that you can use to spice up your avo toast. Our favourite ingredient to add to avocado toast, which takes it to a new level, is an egg.

Mix and match to your heart's desire and enjoy your unique avo toast recipe. 

Overnight oats are the perfect option for convenience, but they can still be yummy. Simply add your oats, along with tasty ingredients, such as almond milk, peanut butter, yoghurt or all your favourite berries and fruits, into a jar or air-tight container, pop it into the fridge, and you’re good to go.

The next morning, you have the perfect bowl of tasty overnight oats ready to eat. 

After these essential steps, enjoy the rest of your morning with some yoga, journalling, walking, or simply planning the rest of your day. At Clearwater Mall, we hope that all your mornings are refreshing and uplifting. And with the help of our health and wellness stores, mornings are made easy!
