Why Mornings Feel More Fearful: A Personal Journey of Understanding
Mornings often come with a sense of dread for me. I wake up feeling anxious and vulnerable, while by night, I’m confident and ready to take on anything. I decided to explore why this happens.
Morning Fear:
Mornings can trigger anxiety because of high cortisol levels and the stress of upcoming tasks. The grogginess and unresolved thoughts from sleep make me feel more vulnerable.
Nighttime Confidence:
By night, my energy shifts. I feel determined and accomplished, thanks to the mental clarity that comes after a full day. My mind has had time to settle, and cortisol levels are lower.
Understanding the Cycle:
I realized that fear in the morning is just a part of my natural cycle. Being aware of this helps me manage it better and use my nighttime confidence to approach the day with more control.
Conclusion:
I’m learning that fear doesn’t have to rule my mornings. By understanding how my energy shifts throughout the day, I’m reclaiming my power and using my nighttime confidence to transform how I start each day. Fear may visit in the morning, but it no longer defines my journey.
