Naming it out loud makes it real. I'll give it a try. I don't usually grab the phone when I open my eyes unless i'm expecting something. That stops me from going down a rabbit hole of nonsense. Waking, I do a head to toe assessment for pain, especially in my legs. That will tell me how the day will go.
I stay off the phone for the first hour off the day. In that hour I start the day of with an emotional connection practise. Ie. What emotion I want to feel for that day, I see, feel, hear myself in the moment I last felt that emotion and then extrapolate that feeling forward into the day. It takes 5-mins to do.
