Summary
Creating Harmony: The Art of Morning Rituals
Creating a beautiful morning routine is not about overwhelming yourself with a long list of tasks but rather about being intentional with small parts of your day. Tonya Leigh believes a healthy morning ritual sets the tone for a successful day and starts with focusing on specific rituals that support your well-being and drive positive energy first thing in the morning.
Tonya emphasizes the importance of starting the day with a capsule collection of non-negotiable activities that contribute to your overall well-being. These activities can vary from person to person but should be chosen based on what makes you feel better emotionally and sets you up for a successful day.
Join Tonya as she explores crafting your own beautiful beginnings for a more purposeful day.

| 0:00.0 | Have you ever wondered how some people seem to float through their mornings with grace and purpose while the rest of us stumble around and caffeine deprived haze? |
| 0:11.0 | What if I told you that creating a beautiful morning routine isn't about torturing yourself with 5 a.m. wake up calls, but more about curating a closet of self-care rituals that feel like a warm hug for your soul. |
| 0:25.0 | Well, today we're going to explore how to craft your own beautiful beginnings |
| 0:31.0 | and set the stage for days filled with intention, with beauty and joy. |
| 0:36.6 | So let's dive in. |
| 0:37.8 | Welcome to the School of Self-image where personal development meets style. |
| 0:45.6 | Here's your hostess Master Life Coach Tanya Lee. |
| 0:49.0 | Good morning my beautiful friends. It is 6.30 in the morning, and I have already been up for an hour, which is very unusual for me. I usually don't get started until 7. |
| 1:04.0 | But for whatever reason, I couldn't sleep this morning, |
| 1:07.0 | and so I got up and started my day. |
| 1:11.0 | I was trying to figure out if mornings or evenings are my favorite part of the day. |

| 1:18.9 | And I do think that the bookends, like morning and night, |

| 1:48.0 | moments where I just wanted to change everything. Can any of you all relate? You're like, I'm not content with any area of my life. |
| 1:56.7 | And that desire can be very overwhelming. |
| 2:01.4 | So what I want to offer you is the power of being intentional with small |
| 2:07.4 | parts of your day. It's just like when clients come for coaching and they have you know 10 to 20 thoughts that are just |
| 2:17.5 | weighing them down and they want to change them all at one time and I'm like no |
