Evening Habits For A Happy & Peaceful Tomorrow
Aug 21, 2017I love waking up to a tidy home, a big cup of coffee, and a little quiet time rather than being woken up by Audri abruptly (as I literally jump out of bed) in a rush to cook breakfast or get Paul’s lunch ready before he leaves for work. That doesn’t do anyone any good.
I also love being able to get a work out in, and read my devotional so I can enjoy the day with a rested mind and a peaceful perspective.
Here are some of the things I do in the evenings that make my mornings lovely instead of chaotic….
- Plan – whatever stresses me out at the thought of waking up to, I do it now. Sometimes I unload the dishwasher. Other times I meal prep.
- Tea and Essential Oils – helps me unwind to drink hot tea and infuse oils into the bedroom. To see how I incorporate all essential oils into my lifestyle, click here.
- Skincare – right now I’m loving the blue lotus mask once a week after regular cleansing.
- Read – Sometimes the Bible, a novel, or an autobiography. Other times, I’m enjoying visual images about design. If reading isn’t your thing, I suggest doing something that you like to do for inspiration. Just stay away from screens and devices.
- Massage – I give Paul a little massage or he rubs my face until I fall asleep. It puts our thoughts at bay and lets our bodies’ know it’s time for a deep sleep.
- Airplane Mode – I sleep with my phone in the kitchen on airplane mode. It eliminates radiation and allows my bedroom to be a sacred place without constant distraction. The phone should “go to bed” before I do.
I hope you guys are rested and ready to tackle the week ahead! Leave a comment if you have any evening tips that make all the difference!

My bedtime routine is kind of crazy… I try to make sure everything is put away and in order before going to bed so that when I wake up the next day, I don’t feel like I’m beginning the day already behind, such a mental thing for me. (My husband thinks it is absurd by the way)
I love your quote, “The phone should go to bed before I do!”

Lol your husband sounds like mine when I go through my nighttime skincare routine, followed by my essential oils haha men don’t get it sometimes 😉 Keep tidying up Teresa, I applaud you!
