1. Up And At It
The most obvious way to make your mornings less harrowed is by waking up earlier. Waking up early gives you plenty of time to tackle your morning routine, eat your breakfast and even leisurely read the paper before you go to work. Even if you aren't a morning bird, you have to agree that those few early hours can set the tone of the day very differently.

2. Calm Time
Spare a few minutes every morning to sit by the window, watch nature happen or just practice deep breathing. A few quiet moments will put you in a different headspace and drastically reduce the amount of rushing from your daily routine.
3. Plan Ahead
Do what you can the previous night instead of in the morning. This means planning your outfit, packing your lunch box and scheduling your transport for the night before. This will cut down on time needed to tackle these tasks in the morning and make it much less hectic.
4. No Phone
Comments
Don't reach out for your phone the first thing in the morning. You may just want to scroll through Instagram, but before you know it you've whittled precious minutes away on social media which could be better used to get your day started. Once your day begins, then you can afford to spend time your phone.
