Many of us have a hard time getting our brains to click in on certain days, what do you do to jumpstart productivity on a slow brain day?

I love to wake up early. It is like my time before the family, work, and other demands on my time. I love to see the sun coming up for a new day of possibilities and experiences. My mantra is “Carpe Diem” – Seize the day! 

I make sure every morning I get up, and get in the direct sunlight within an hour, at the max two hours of waking up. I do a prayer and meditation every morning so that I can make sure that I’m centered and ready to go for that day. And then if I’m traveling or even just a regular day and I get tired, I’ll force myself to get up to stretch to walk outside. To take a deep breath, pray, and reground my spirit.
