From Phone to Stress –or From Me to Myself?

Updated: Jun 3

Many of my mornings used to start the same way.

I’d wake up, grab my phone, and start checking. Emails, messages, unfinished tasks from yesterday…

Before I even got out of bed, my mind was already racing – not based on how I felt, but based on what the world demanded of me.

I was stepping into the day, but not into myself.

I was reacting before I had chosen how I wanted to show up.

Everything changed when I asked myself one simple question:

👉 Who controls my morning – me or everything else?

When I was in the middle of the hustle – juggling big projects, heavy responsibility, and constant pressure – morning routines felt like a luxury.

Who has time to sit with themselves, meditate or journal, when the world is already waiting?

But here's the truth: the world doesn’t wait.

If I begin my day in stress, it shapes how I think, speak, and respond.

If I begin with myself – I get to choose how I want to meet the world.

I called it Rise in Alignment – not a perfect method, but an experiment:

Giving myself just a few minutes before connecting to everything else.

Breathing, writing, thinking – not for long, but with intention.

Starting my day in connection with myself, not unconsciously through screens.

I have created a 5-day challenge called Rise in Alignment – Morning Routine .

It's simple, beautiful, and designed to work in real life.

Every day you´ll receive:

You don't have to wake up at 5 a.m. or be a "morning person."

You just need the will to start your day a little differently—in your center, not in a reactive state.

You don't have to change everything. Just change the first 5 minutes. That's where the change begins.
