Most of us are intentional about how we start our mornings, but rarely think about our last thought before sleep. It turns out that final moment before you drift off matters more than you might realize. Your brain continues processing and consolidating whatever is on your mind as you fall asleep, which means choosing that last thought carefully could change not just how you sleep, but how you feel the next day.

Most of us start our mornings the same way — phone in hand, scrolling before we've even gotten out of bed. But what if those first few minutes looked completely different? Adding just a little bit of reading to your morning routine, before the emails, before the news, before social media, can be one of the simplest ways to start your day feeling grounded and in control.
