Morning Routine

[SalixIncendium]

I created an OP in the Dharmic Religions DIR about my practices during a time of day called Brahmamuhurta (time of Brahman) and wanted to create a thread in Interfaith Discussion in case anyone was compelled to share their morning routine and if they incorporate religion or spirituality into it on a daily basis or on specific days.

Mine is in the link above. Feel free to share yours.

I was just curious if you drink coffee in the morning.

 

[Rival]

Say thanks to Hashem for returning my soul immediately after waking, or when I realise I woke.

Wash hands in a special way with a cup and say a short blessing pertaining to the handwashing.

Say another blessing and a short prayer.

I did used to have a cup for quite some time between my shower and meditation or directly before my shower, but I've since moved coffee time to after meditation.

That seems a more wholesome way of being.

Journal every morning and evening a thank you and what I'm thankful for. Usually, throughout the day. I had morning meditation in my routine but lost my habit after going out of town for a week. Have to pick that up again. When it's raining, I'd light a candle for my aunt and grandmother. I'm starting to pray more since in itself is a meditative practice. I have no religion or, in other words, a structured practice and things like that.

I am in the process of creating a Spiritually charged morning routine, but as it stands my main component is drawing a Rune, to give me an idea of what to expect/look for throughout the day.

I have a Spiritual evening ritual, in which I light a candle and give thanks for one thing that occured during the day. After which, I make a Hammer sign (similar to Signing a cross) invoke Odin to protect my Home and Hearth (Altar). I then proceed to to the back of the house, Sign, Invoke Thor and lock my door, and turn off the lights. I then go to the front door and do the same, this time invoking Freya. At this point I return to my Altar, blow out the candle and return it, before carrying on to bed.

Takes roughly 5 minutes.

What is special about Brahmamuhurta? What is it about this time of day makes it unique? What time does it occur from/until? Are there other special times of the day?

To the best of my knowledge, it's the time of day most conducive to worship and meditative practice, as the mind is the most still and in its purist state upon waking.

A muhurta is a Hindu unit of time equivalent to 1/30 of the day, so a muhurta is 48 minutes in length. Brahmamuhurta is the 14th muhurta of the night (which has a total of 15), so Brahmamuhurta begins 96 minutes prior to sunrise and ends 48 minutes prior to sunrise. Therefore, Brahmamuhurta is 48 minutes in length.

I'm not aware of any others times of day that are considered as auspicious as Brahmamuhurta.

I looked it up on Wiki...
Brahmamuhurtha - Wikipedia
Getting up that early in the morning is a bit much for me, much less trying to stay awake during a meditation at that time. It would have been useful during my two years of graveyard shift. My morning routine usually involves a stop in the bathroom, starting a pot of coffee, and smoking a cigarette. The pleasure I get from all three is the best homage I can offer the supreme and eternal essence or spirit of the universe.

I always fold my bedding (or make the bed depending on time of year etc). It symbolizes my intention to make the day profitable.

My ritual is antidepressant pill and coffee. But my real ritual is simply greeting the sun.
