Inside My Soft Luxe Morning Routine (As a Mama & CEO of My Home)
There was a time when my mornings felt like chaos. Alarms. Nappies. Noise. A blur of "where are your shoes?" and reheated coffee. But as I stepped deeper into my Soft Era, I realised that mornings hold magic — not just for productivity, but for presence, peace, and power.
Now, my routine is less about strict schedules and more about sacred rituals. It’s not perfect — I still have a toddler tugging at my robe and cereal spills to clean up — but it’s beautifully mine. And that’s what makes it powerful.
Here’s a glimpse into how I start my mornings with intention, softness, and a sprinkle of luxury — even with three boys and a full life.
1. Wake Before the World (Most Days)
My soft luxe mornings begin before everyone else is up — even if it’s just 20 quiet minutes. This is my sacred window. No emails, no noise. Just me, my thoughts, and the hush of a sleeping house.
I light a candle. I open a window. I let the air remind me I’m alive.
2. Water, Music & Mood
Before coffee, I hydrate with warm water and lemon. Then I set the vibe — soft R&B, a jazz playlist, or whatever Nova Bloom (my higher self) would dance to.
Mood matters. I choose it intentionally.
3. A 3-Minute Mirror Moment
I stand in the mirror and affirm myself softly. Out loud. No rushing. Just truth.
“I am the soft, radiant center of my world.”
“My energy leads. My peace protects.”
“I deserve to be adored, by myself first.”
This moment grounds me and sets the tone for how I move through the day.
4. Light Beauty Rituals
Even if I’m not going anywhere, I do something small for myself. A swipe of lip oil. A soft brushed bun. A spritz of my favourite rose water mist. It’s not about appearance — it’s about embodiment.
Luxury, for me, lives in these little things.
5. Coffee & Journaling (Interrupted but Still Sacred)
Some mornings, I get a full journaling session. Others, I’m writing affirmations with a toddler on my lap. Either way, I jot something down — a dream, a gratitude, a reminder.
My notebook is a portal to my future self.
6. Mama Mode & Morning Chaos
Once the house wakes up, it’s game time — breakfast, conversations, homeschool prep, and life. But because I poured into myself first, I’m not running on fumes. I can lead with love, not urgency.
And when it all goes sideways (because life), I remind myself: I’m allowed to reset at any moment.
Final Thoughts: Softness is a Choice, Not a Circumstance
You don’t need a perfect life to have a soft morning. You just need intention. Choose one moment — even just two minutes — to make sacred. Light a candle. Whisper something kind to yourself. Drink your coffee like it’s a potion.
That’s the beginning of everything.
