I wake up around six, between six and 6.30am normally. I always have an alarm on as a back-up. I try to move away from the phone alarm to a good old-fashioned one, and try to keep my phone out of the core bedroom to minimise that phone exposure time — particularly the risk of doom scrolling, which is something we all have to self-manage.
A typical morning starts with a moment of breathwork, meditation and then jumping into the shower. Sometimes I step outside into the garden to do breathwork for a couple of minutes in the fresh air. For showers, I start warm and finish cold — then do my morning prayers.
