My body clock always wakes me up early and there’s no better start to a day of skiing than to watch the sunrise. In the French Alps, watching the sunrise feels like the ultimate indulgence. As pink turns to orange over snow-capped mountain peaks, everywhere is still and quiet. The higher you are in the mountains, the better.
If there’s time, I usually try to warm up with 20 minutes of yoga. My favourite is sun salutations, mat facing the window. The movement warms up my body and mind, switching on core muscles (ideal for skiing) and gently stretching out any stiffness from the previous day.
