When you wake up, before you start doom scrolling on your phone, head over to our favourite Square Breathing timer on YouTube here and take just five minutes to engage in this calming practice commonly known as Square or Box breathing, which is a breathing technique in which you inhale, hold, exhale, and hold again, each for equal counts - typically 4-5 seconds each.

This rhythmic breathing activates your parasympathetic nervous system, reducing stress and increasing oxygen flow to the brain, enhancing focus and mental clarity.

Incorporating square breathing into your morning routine is a fantastic way to set a positive tone for the day and calm your nervous system for the day ahead.

The easiest way to form new habits is by tagging them on to something you already do on a daily basis. As you brush your teeth this morning, take a moment to look yourself in the mirror and confidently repeat some positive affirmations back to yourself.

The first time you do this, you might feel a bit silly, however it's been proven that this practice not only reinforces positive self-talk, but also sets a tone of self-empowerment and gratitude.

By affirming your goals and strengths, you can cultivate a mindset that fosters resilience and motivation. For some affirmation inspiration, check out The Mål Paper Affirmations Card Deck here and start every day on a more positive note!
