    I have a few things I’ve picked up recently.

    1. A couple of years ago I quit drinking coffee, so now I almost exclusively drink water. I find the water first thing in the morning is a brilliant way to wake up
    2. In the evenings I go for a bike ride, giving me some fresh air, sunlight and exercise. Some nights I go for a 20 mile intercity route, some nights I just do an easy 5 mile route in town
    3. After my bike ride I’ll eat some ice cream, shower, then relax with a book in bed (my phone stays on my dresser and out of reach from the bed) before going to sleep

    The right morning routine and evening routine really makes my days feel so much more fulfilling even if I haven’t been particularly productive that day

      A couple of years ago I quit drinking coffee, so now I almost exclusively drink water. I find the water first thing in the morning is a brilliant way to wake up. It is actually the best thing every to do in the morning. A glass of water. I read some articles about that it helps nicely, softly to wake up the body and also to prepare the stomach. And obviously to be hydrated. I do the same. Glass of water (quite big one) + Vitamins C, Zinc

        Yup post ride ice cream to as a treat to cool down and replenish sugar after sweating a bunch. I otherwise avoid treats/excessive sugar, but something about ice cream after an intense workout just is amazing
