January often gets a bad rap – the post-holiday blues, gloomy weather, and the daunting resolutions that may or may not stick around.
But what if we could flip the script on January and transform it into the best month of the year?
Team Mother Root have compiled our top tips to help you kickstart 2024 on a high note...
Master Your Sleep Routine:
Prioritise sleep, and remain as consistent as possible. Set a consistent bedtime and wake up with the help of an old-school alarm clock. By keeping your phone out of reach, you ensure your day doesn't begin and end with a digital glow.
Read For Pleasure:
Bethan's tip is to get stuck into a good book, and that doesn't mean a self-help book. Leave your phone downstairs to prevent distraction. Immerse yourself for the sheer joy of it and let the words transport you to new realms.
Plan Future Joy:
Beat the January blues by scheduling time with friends later in the month. It might feel overwhelming now, but having something to look forward to can be a powerful motivator.
Start Something New:
Alice, our head of ops, is swallowing her pride and starting swimming lessons next week. Following Alice's lead, step out of your comfort zone. Whether it's a new hobby, project, or something you've been putting off – embrace the excitement of a challenge.
Morning Serenity:
Channel your inner Francesca, our community leader, by waking up 10 minutes earlier than usual. Savour quiet moments with a cup of tea, allowing yourself to ease into the day. A small change can make a world of difference in setting a positive tone for the hours ahead.
Sip, Sip Away:
Trade your evening glass of Riesling for a Mother Root and soda. Savour the flavour with all the incredible health benefits.
Dance Your Heart Out:
Unleash your inner rhythm wherever you can – at home, a ceilidh class, or even a spontaneous dance party. Movement sparks endorphins, and a good dance session is an excellent way to shake off any lingering winter blues.
So how will you be flipping the script on January?
