Autism Routines (My Morning Routine 2022)

Here is what my daily autism morning routines looks like in real life.

This has been a long time in the making but here is what my morning routine is like. Showing you my autism routines this year.

First I wanted to do this as I have had a lot of requests for this and I thought it is about time to do it.

So I usually get up around 5-6 AM when my little boy wakes (yes he’s that kid 😂) - my partner hangs with them for 30 mins while I get myself ready.

I first get fully dressed and take a drink of water (no shower right away as you’ll know why)

Then I go down stairs to the bathroom and use the toilet. Once done with the toilet, I then start my miracle morning.

It starts off with brushing my teeth, then on to the miracle morning this consists of these times in this order for One minute.

- Silences (sitting in science)
- Affirmations (reading out my goals)
- Visualisations (looking at a vision board of my goals)
- Exercise (yoga, Tai Chi or simple push ups)
- Reading (try reading an ebook to improve my reading)
- Journaling (writing my thoughts down in a journey on my iPhone /iPad)

After this, I know i am going to work out shortly with a long walk, or run or work out so I wait to shower until i have fully worked out.

These are all to help my mental health, focus and sensory issues and they work brilliantly.
