MY MORNING RITUAL

ENJOY EACH MORNING

"EVERY DAY I COUNT WASTED IN WHICH THERE HAS BEEN NO DANCING."

Friedrich Nietzsche
Do you dance in the bathroom in the morning? Certainly a good idea: after all, dancing releases endorphins, i.e. happiness hormones, trains your balance and makes your spine more flexible. But even if you are not a morning dancer, small rituals help you to start the day in a relaxed way, to recharge your batteries and to awaken your good mood. Deliberate time-outs in the morning increase well-being and performance for the whole day. Whether it's a dance, a yoga exercise, the enjoyment of tea or a lovingly laid breakfast table - a Morning Ritual is a very individual good-mood kick. Try it out!

5 TIPS FOR A RELAXED START TO THE DAY

  1. Take your time: Let the alarm clock ring 10 minutes earlier. 10 minutes for a little morning ritual will give you more power for the day than 10 minutes of sleep. 
  2. Let in the light and air: Open the curtains and windows and let the fresh air and the play of light in the morning wake you up. 
  3. Mobile phone on flight mode: Allow yourself a moment's rest before messages and e-mails set the pace of your day.
  4. Sun salutations even in the rain: Yoga in the morning helps to gently wake up the whole body. No time for yoga? Then stretch properly for once: head up, arms wide above your head - this gives you strength and self-confidence for the whole day. 
  5. Fill up your energy stores: A balanced breakfast gives you energy for the start of the day. It is especially important to replenish the fluid balance - not only with coffee.

Two classics: coffee and Bauhaus design

In the spirit of the Bauhaus, Wilhelm Wagenfeld designed the "Service 639" in 1934. To this day, the timelessly modern shape impresses with its enduring relevance - a classic not only for fragrant coffee.
