Meaning Making is a series of reflection provoking exercises that will help you gain clarity about the life that you desire to live. When you do the exercise with complete focus and honest awareness you will develop deeper understanding about yourself and gain awareness for how to be more intentioned in your day-to-day experiences, relationships, and goals. To get the most out of these exercises, I recommend that you write them down either in a journal or on the downloadable free worksheet. Let’s get started!

Imagine your ideal morning, that type of morning that helps to set your day off to a great start, the one that leads you off to feel so good for the remainder of the day. Imagine it from the very moment you are just coming to your senses and waking up. Start there and describe the following that makes your perfect morning:
-
- What time is it?
- Where are you?
- Is anyone with you?
- What is your process of waking up?
- What are you wearing?
- What do you hear?
- What do you smell?
- What do you see?
- What’s the first thing that you do?
- Then next?
- Then after that?
- What do you eat?
- What do you drink?
- What activity must be included?
- How are you feeling?
- What thoughts come to mind as you are enjoying your perfect morning?
Now that you’ve completed the exercise, identify some morning rituals that you will start doing or continue doing more of so that each day can be more like your ideal morning. If that’s not enough and you are considering a complete morning routine overhaul – wow, that’s great. So what will you do to make it happen?
