  • 5 Morning Habits To Start Your Day Off Right

We’re all guilty of hitting that snooze button and dragging ourselves out of bed at the last minute. However, how you start your morning sets the tone for the rest of the day. So, you can either start your day feeling frazzled or you can begin to incorporate some good morning habits for a better day and overall healthier lifestyle.

Wake Up Early
The early bird gets the worm, or in other words, early risers reap many benefits.
– You’re able to go through your morning routine in a calm and leisurely manner, instead of feeling rushed.
– You have more time for introspection and getting yourself in the right frame of mind.
– You can get an early start on your goals, such as getting daily exercise in.

Play Music
Set some soothing ambiance. Ambient noise is proven to increase creativity and productivity. However, don’t turn it on too loud, you don’t want to end up waking up everyone else in your house.

Stretch It Out
This routine shouldn’t only be done before or after a workout. Stretching when you wake up in the morning will help loosen your muscles, increase blood flow, and lower your stress levels. Take ten minutes to do a few yoga poses and become connected with your mind, body, and breath in preparation for your busy day.

Eat a Healthy Breakfast
Breakfast is known as the most important meal of the day. Eating breakfast is proven to improve your concentration, give you energy, help with weight loss, and boost your metabolism. So start your day off with a healthy (and tooth-friendly) meal, and you will get the drive you need for your day ahead.

Brush Your Teeth
Most people think they should brush their teeth after having breakfast. However, it’s healthier to brush your teeth as soon as you wake up. Plaque, a film of bacteria, builds in your mouth while you sleep. In addition to brushing and flossing your teeth, you should also scrape your tongue. This process helps with fresh breath, boosts your immunity, and provides healthier gums.

Delina G.
I was nervous about getting braces as an adult, but my experience with Speaks was excellent. The 2 ½ years went by quickly. Dr. Speaks and the staff were clear about the timeline and what I needed to do to ensure a good outcome. I got my braces off last year, a few days before my 30th birthday, and I’m still very happy with the results!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're delighted to hear that your experience at Speaks Orthodontics was positive and that you’re thrilled with your results. Enjoy your beautiful smile!
Melissa C.
My experience from start to finish with my orthodontic treatment at Speaks Orthodontics has been wonderful. Having to go back into orthodontics in your 30s isn’t ideal, but the team here made it smooth and comfortable. The free consultation was detailed and unhurried. The office is clean and comfortable. Every staff member is kind and helpful. Dr. Speaks’ bedside manner is top-notch, and not only did I get my teeth alignment fixed, he also helped me with evening my gumline out with a laser gingivectomy as part of my treatment. I’d highly recommend them to anyone looking for orthodontic treatment.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words, Melissa! We're thrilled to hear that your experience with our team and Dr. Speaks exceeded your expectations. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to seeing you again!
