This is not even recognized as a significant concern here, and no practical steps are taken in subsidizing the problem. The conditions of the workers, students, etc. are staggering as cheap labor is significant in such countries. Hence, we are the only ones who are responsible for our health and can effectively take care of ourselves. The first step towards this should be of establishing a routine and kicking start your day with an optimistic morning ritual.

If you start your day feeling more energized, then you can ensure a productive and efficient day ahead. Here are a few steps that you can implement in your morning routine that will keep you on a higher energy level.

TAKE A RELAXING SHOWER

A shower can drain off all the tiredness from the mind and the body. After a shower, a body feels fresh and energized. Usually, there are two types of shower people:-

1) Hot Shower People

A hot shower can make one feel more relaxed. Often, such a shower is preferred before going to bed as it drains away all the stress and tiredness accumulated in the day.

2) Cold Shower People

Let the water loosen the muscles and prepare the mind for the day. Challenged will feel more breezy, and one would feel more vamped up to face what the day has to offer. 

DRINK GREEN TEA OR LEMON WATER

Instead of engaging in that caffeine content from your regular cup of coffee, why not go for a healthier and more green option of using green tea. A glass of lemon water can improvise your metabolism and make you feel better holistically. Start your day while sipping a nice cup of green tea and reading some positive thoughts. This can prove to be an instant stress reliever.

EAT A HEARTY AND WELL-BALANCED BREAKFAST

Breakfast is the most vital meal of the entire day. Eat well-balanced and hearty breakfast. All the other meals of the day can be skipped, but once should never skip breakfast. Eat a healthy meal that is low on sugars and carbs. Without breakfast, you will feel low on energy.

WRITE IN YOUR JOURNAL

Writing regularly will make you feel more focused and motivated.
