Your morning routine sets the tone for your entire day, but some common habits can silently sabotage your health. Repeatedly hitting the snooze button disrupts your sleep cycle, leaving you groggy. Checking your phone first thing triggers stress and anxiety, while drinking coffee immediately may interfere with natural cortisol levels. Skipping breakfast can lead to overeating and metabolic issues.

A sedentary start to your day lowers energy and increases long-term health risks. Not drinking water in the morning causes dehydration, impacting brain and body function. Skipping sunlight exposure affects mood and vitamin D levels. Beginning the day with sugary foods leads to blood sugar spikes and crashes.

Avoiding a to-do list can make you feel disorganized, and consuming negative news early on can trigger stress hormones. Ditching these habits and replacing them with mindful routines can transform your day - and your health.
