[@JessMedley]

I don’t know how you could inspire me to wake up at 5:30 in the mornings through an 11-minute video but you just did.

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

HAHAHA love it!

[@garden_therapy_nj]

Jess Medley I've been doing it for years. not fun but just a part of life.

[@cereal_qilla]

Your the kind of person who honestly just sails through life

[@Csebecke]

Damn girl you look GOOD! Your skin is glowing, your mood seems amazing, and you are toned/thin but not too skinny!! You always have a glow about you but you are looking better than ever!

[@ShannonAlexis96]

If you haven't tried the 'bedtime' function of the iPhone clock I highly recommend! The alarm is much more chill and gradually gets louder so it's a much more pleasant way to wake up in my opinion. It also reminds you to go to bed at the time you set.

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

I actually have a Bon Iver song set as my morning alarm, so it's pretty chill haha. But that's a cool function!

[@amandavsevilla]

YESSSS to the set routine even on the weekends. it feels sooo good to be up in the morning on the weekends :) i find it's quieter (since everyone's asleep) and i get more peaceful me-time.

[@amandavsevilla]

omg you make me want to subscribe to thriving plant based yoga !

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

girl I seriously LOVE it!!! You should try it for a month and see if you like it...it's basically just the price of one acai bowl ;)

[@alexandracaruso4173]

I find people's morning routines really interesting too! I'm a bit late but here's mine: 6:00AM - alarm rings, wake up 6:15AM - *really* wake up haha. I keep my phone on airplane too, don't check it for a while. - drink 1L water - practice yoga (almost done with the 30 day Fightmaster challenge!) - read my Vision (one page of who I want to be/want to accomplish in life written as if I already have accomplished it all) - check my phone - take a shower - make breakfast & watch Good Mythical Morning - make a mug of matcha tea - write! (usually for class but sometimes for my thesis as well) :~)

[@elizabethlucile7643]

YAY I'm so glad you made a morning routine video! I love waking up early, I feel like I have so much more time in the day! Starting the day with yoga is so fantastic as well. I feel like we're so similar and I love how positive and happy your channel is. SO much love

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

Thank you Elizabeth! :)

[@witchescauldron]

I clicked on this *so* fast when I saw you had uploaded a video!! :) Your morning routine is my goal - thank you for sharing.

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

Thank YOU for watching!

[@harpersinclair2175]

I never make my bed when I wake up lol I always prefer doing that before I go to bed. In the morning I NEED my coffee and I usually eat a big fruit bowl with toast. Then I go for a hike ( I live in the beautiful mountains of Alberta, Canada!). After that I get dressed, do my hair and blah blah blah. Grab a snack and my big bottle of water and head off to school.

[@pinkcrystalhippie3222]

Harper Sinclair same

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

that's awesome that you can go hiking every day!

[@elizabethlucile7643]

I'm so jealous that a hike is part of your morning routine, that sounds so beautiful and amazing!

[@invinciblesummer13]

I live in Alberta too, and I wish I could go hiking everyday, but I live in Calgary 😭

[@1234vampireprincess]

Harper Sinclair okay, so your name is amazing :0

[@ingalien8102]

You get 10 things done before 8 am! I usually wake up aroud 10 and get ready really quickly and just have my coffee before heading out. I'm also a student. And not a morning person at all :D Your morning routine and other videos are so inspiring and organized haha :)

[@sairalin.6556]

It's going to be 1 pm and i wake up at 6:40 am go to the bathroom and wash my face, put on moisturizer, do my hair then just put on mascara. Then I eat my breakfast which it's either cereal w soy milk or a half a bagel or some type of bread and sometimes I have oatmeal (my fav) then I brush my teeth, chill. Once it's 7:30am i leave off to school (: that's my morning routine when I have school. Ps. You're one of the reasons why I've started eating healthier and am addicted to oatmeal hehe and also just to be a better human being and love myself more ❤️

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

That's awesome! Your breakfast sounds yummy :)

[@Thewackyteen]

I literally am obsessed with your videos. The porridge queen😄😊 I completely get you i am a morning person too. By 9 at night im ready for bed😂 Also I do that journal every morning I love having a question to answer every day☺️

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

Wow that's awesome! Also, the porridge queen is like the best title ever

[@mariagalleriaxi8632]

The Vintage Vegan dude ur channel is great new subscribe.

[@HealthyGroceryGirl]

Really enjoyed watching this video! Fun to see what you do to prepare for the day :) I love yoga and dry brushing as well!

[@StrawberryElli]

Incorporating a yoga practice into my daily routine is definitely a life changer for me! It makes me feel so much more in tune with my body, relaxed and grounded for the rest of the day and I feel more grateful too 🙏 Thanks for sharing your routine with us Caitlin, really inspiring!💜 And I love getting up early in the morning too hehe!

[@robinrox1]

I cringed internally when I saw your alarm clock time! I got up at 4:15am for my job for two years but am naturally a late riser. It's hard getting up early when I don't go to bed til after 1 because of my current job. But I'm inspired to start my day a little earlier after this! Fun video, as always.

[@maggiecheyenne]

Robin that's kinda how I am! I'd love to be in bed at 9:30, but I'm usually still at work then, which makes getting up at 5 very difficult 😭

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

The restaurant life definitely does that to you! I hated working late because I still had to wake up early for class haha. 4:15 is impressive! Hope you are well Robin :)

[@its.me.paisley]

The last couple weeks I've been doing a quick meditation for the first 10 minutes of my morning. I think it has helped my focus for the rest of the day.

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

love it!

[@foreverwantingpie]

You're so beautiful and you have your life together haha

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

Well, at least I have it together from 5:30 - 7:20 am....may or may not be a downward spiral from that point on LOL

[@joematejka]

this is reassuring

[@AshleyMarah]

I absolutely love this 🌸 your positivity and calm nature is so relaxing and inspiring! I've started waking up earlier every day, now I just need to get into the yoga flow on a daily basis 🙏🏻 love you Caitlin!!

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

aw thank you Ashley! I hope you are enjoying AUS!

[@Kyliebgee]

i love how organized you are and that you are achieving your goals. It's really exceptional that an amazing youtuber as yourself is so motivated and i know for sure you make me think i can achieve my goals with a little hard work. thank you for taking me along with you on your journey.

[@YouniqueMakeup]

damn i wish i had my life together like this bahahaha

[@Karliespurebliss]

You totally inspired me from this video. I am not incorporating time for me in the morning... like yoga & meditation & journaling. I love it and I truly feel more relaxed and happier throughout my busy days. I loved this so much. You should do a night time routine next 😍 thanks again for helping me become a better me❤️

[@sydneyc682]

Love your tip about putting the phone on airplane mode to block notifications from social media! I spend at least 15 minutes going through my phone...this would save me so much time! Thanks, Caitlin!

[@cassiopeiastoll416]

I'm gonna tell you a bit of a story! I was a competitive gymnast for 15 years of my life. Self love was never a thing... always pushing yourself to extreme limits that made you feel like crap, never being good enough etc. This state of mind stayed with me for a very long time and I still struggle with it now. I remember my first time taking a yoga class - the teacher kept saying to "listen to your body" I was like what? No I HAVE to push myself till pain. But that's not the case! Listening to your body, setting time aside for yourself is OK and having routines for self love is ok! I want to thank you for how inspiring you are and reminding me that it's ok to love every single ounce of you

[@V3ganBr33]

Cassie Stoll i was a gymnat as a child. I totally feel this!!!!

[@simplelivingwithangelique6447]

You're just so cute and your routine is so on point. I want to start including yoga into my routine and this might just have been the motivation I needed. Also I used not tonne a morning person but I agree that since I have had a proper routine I have turned into one :)

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

Thank you :)

[@elizabethlucile7643]

I totally agree that it takes a while to become a morning person :) you should definitely start incorporating yoga, it has helped me so much!

[@95lilil]

I absolutely love truly organic! Thanks for sharing!

[@julie065]

This morning routine is the most inspiring I've ever seen in my life, seriously 😌

[@melissag8270]

I am SO inspired 💕💕💕 I really really struggle with a morning routine, usually it is unplanned and chaotic for me! I have been setting the goal of meditating each morning and I have been wanting to start yoga every morning! I absolutely loved that Question Journal you used, sounds right up my alley 😄

[@MrsPlantinTexas]

I love OMN! Great music choice! Loved this video, Caitlin! Michelle and Jay from Thriving Plant-Based are amazing! HUGS FROM TEXAS!

[@carly5700]

I just found your channel and I love it! Such an inspiration ❤

[@jamiedanielle5120]

I love your videos so much, there is something so relaxing about them!

[@TheConscientiousEater]

Yay for early mornings! I usually get up around 6, but love when my body wakes me up at 5:30. Also, just got a yoga app and am (hoping) i'll start using it soon haha. Your girl has gotten so inflexible and that needs to change!

[@beeep6821]

Love your videos! Keep em coming💜

[@rachelireland8904]

im so glad that i found your videos. they are very inspiring without being preachy. you also inspired me to start doing yoga as i am unable to do a lot of high impact exercise and i find that it is definitely helping.

[@stephaniepuebla8487]

I love this journal!

[@cristinadiaz984]

Hi I'm new here!! But this morning routine video just made me fall in love with you and your channel!!! All the products and your way of living is totally in line with how I want/already live my day!! I love it! 💕

[@pugwashisme]

I've just found your channel and it's inspiring me to get out of a personal rut. Thanks so much for your motivating and uplifting videos :)

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

Good for you for deciding to care for yourself!

[@82noula]

your morning is my whole day plus my meals

[@SandKitchen]

Beautifully done video :) I agree that when I go through periods with a set morning routine I feel better and fresher. I started waking up at 5.50am recently to get a gym session in before work, and it's made a world of difference. I've never been a morning person, and I still feel like death when I wake up in at that ridiculous time, but I feel great for the rest of the day, so that's something!

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

I'm glad you've noticed a positive change!

[@user-ez1bb8ks3b]

you, my friend, are an inspiration 😩💕💕💕

[@JRENT209]

I need to step up my morning routine! I wake up at about 5:30 every day when my boyfriend leaves for work but I usually lay around in bed for almost an hour. I think I'm gonna try waking up immediately and start doing yoga again. Great video!

[@briellelynne4552]

You are truly a hero of mine. you motivated me to become a vegitatian. Today is day 7 actually. I am going to start watching more of your recipes videos and make some of the stuff. I'm very excited. please do a night routine video! love you girl😊

[@paulinag2819]

I found you have so much peace inside of you, I can feel it through the screen (even if it's sounds stupid) I wish I were like you in future. Maybe when I start my studies! I will try being so peaceful, calm and so so so positive (and organised). Cross your fingers for me. Love u, girl.

[@LIZZYRAE]

lol your alarm is all happy and cute and mine says "ffs get up"

[@poprocks04]

As a vegan, I get so happy when you post a new video. Thanks for being an inspiration. ❤

[@acupoftia11]

It's soooo nice to listen to you. You are really one amazing human! I would love to watch your vlogs!

[@tiarak1529]

This is one of my favourite morning routine videos. I really enjoyed watching this thank you

[@jessicagadoury9198]

that journal is so cool!

[@mackenziebell2782]

This video was really helpful, because I'm the kind of person that just jumps right into work or strenuous exercise. Thank you for sharing your routine! :)

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

Thanks for watching Mackenzie!

[@mackenziebell2782]

no problem! i love all your videos ❤

[@camillat984]

this is such a good routine!! such a good way to look after yourself, grad school is so intense! xx

[@megankim5648]

Haha I barely put makeup on my face as well. I just love having a natural face cuz it's so much more comfortable :)

[@deeghali8719]

I LOVE your videos!! would absolutely love if you did a video on dealing with eating habits during high stress studying all the time. great content!!

[@mademoiselleea]

yo !!! your skin looks amazinggg

[@beccamilton503]

I love morning routines! I've always been the kind of person to wake up at the very last minute haha. But this year I want to change that! Mostly to have some reading or exercise time before the day starts

[@oliviacaldwell4055]

My morning routine: wake up at 7 press the snooze button 3 times Oil pull then brush my teeth Make a green smoothie get ready for microbiology and/or babysitting.

[@flore3163]

Amazing video, loved it so much💗

[@flore3163]

Do you have any yoga video free to recommend ?❣

[@growinspirit5361]

I've been doing the exact same thing with my Phone for a while now :) but some mornings I still decide to put airplaine mode off immediatly, when I really feel like it. loved the video Caitlin! it will help me to make my morning more productive again🙏

[@pinkrockstar18]

you are so inspiring! new subbie here!!! love from texas!!!

[@olivianicoloff2998]

your skin looks so lovely! you glow, girl!! xo

[@johannameyer40]

Our morning routines are almost identical! I don't have to wake up early but I just really like it, I feel like the earlier I get out of bed the more things I get done 😊

[@janettackett7659]

I have the same 5 year journal and love it!

[@leahkindermann4222]

Just purchased the five year journal from Amazon, love it!! Love your vids as well

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

It's awesome right? And thank you :)

[@mangomaima8907]

I absolutely love you and LOVED this video! I SUCK at waking up early but I can't wait to apply these tips! Especially the airplane mode too since my phone can be a huge distraction in the morning 😊

[@1996SST]

Soooooo as for my morning routine...i don't have one lol. However, having watched your video i am definitely going to establish one. It makes a lot of sense and i can see how it would help me to start the day off more relaxed as well as alert and better prepared for what life has for me each day. So thanks Caitlin :-)

[@KatieFilms]

yay I was hoping for this video!

[@zuki3245]

Your skin is so perfect !

[@jvall5879]

I love this channel I feel motivated to eat greens with my potatoes and actually do yoga every day lol 😂❤ one of my favorite channels

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

YES those are all the things I want for you guys in life

[@meganl7125]

So inspiring!!

[@sgtigereye]

Thank you, this inspired me to wake up an hour earlier to do a yoga routine!

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

Yess! So worth it

[@BeJoyfulBeWell]

Really enjoyed watching your morning routine, especially the part when you were practicing yoga. How long have you been doing yoga for? I would love to know...Have a beautiful day/weekend!

[@chiaracaramia7451]

Great video and inspiration, thank you😌

[@ashleymuenchau7694]

When you're tempted to hide in the bathroom so you can watch Caitlin's new video but you have to be an adult and wait till you get home.. Let me edit and say that I was at work when the video was uploaded.. haha

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

haha aw

[@avidian888]

You're such an inspiring and beautiful person. Thanks for this.

[@KiaHazel]

Caitlin! This is so amazing! I probably could have used a morning routine when I was in uni..XD I am implementing one now though :)

[@AnnMarieACS]

am i the only one obsessed with that pineapple pillow

[@rach2217]

Minecrafter3 but same

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

Haha! It's from Serengetee if you guys are interested :)

[@catalinajianu]

O truly love your chanel. You are a inspiration for me :). I have the same brush and also Dr. Bronner's Body Wash with wild rose :).

[@tarteelhaithama8160]

Ughh I wake up at 5:30 too but I don't have the time to do any of this stuff I just get ready , eat my breakfast and go to school 😭BTW I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS SO MUCH you are so cute and I enjoy watching your videos tho I actually hate these types of videos. So...Great Job!

[@jamesfrench7299]

I like to have the television running to make the place seem awake as well and to catch the main news stories. I always have some water first thing before I brush my teeth.I may not follow every thing you have done here, it has given a good reference point, so thank you.

[@n.m8827]

"One of those curly eyelash things" I actually love you 😂😂

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

do they have an actual name?? hahaha

[@Ella.L.]

Caitlin Shoemaker i think it's called eyelash curler

[@tiarawhaley1061]

You should try out the Pacifica Dream Big mascara. I didn't like the other Pacifica ones I used before, but Dream Big is awesome. The cap actually can turn to lengthen or shorten the spoolie if you want to lengthen or thicken your lashes. It's so cool and innovative!

[@melss94ish]

While I LOVE your food and recipe videos, I also really LOVE this video! Morning routines are interesting and I think you are a fascinating person. Please feel free to share more routine videos or Day in the Life types of videos. I also really enjoy your vlogs. xoxo♥ :)

[@leanneyoga]

Loved this video - definitely considering getting up earlier! What time do you go to bed if you're up *so* early?

[@CassieTranthesuperfitbabe]

Omg I'm going to try the little alarm message from now on!!

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

do it!!!

[@Juliyakay]

Dang, you really have your life together... if only I could even get up 2 hours before work, but I cherish sleep so every minute counts haha

[@cagla.cantimur.turkiye]

You are inspiring babe

[@RemyElysee]

You are so beautiful!! 😄 I long for the day that I can just put on mascara and still feel put together. I have pretty dark circles (always have, since I was a kid) and reaaallly bad skin 😕

[@EmilySev]

I love dry brushing! It's definitely a better/natural way to get rid of cellulite verse using a bunch of chemical-filled cremes.

[@momentswithmon]

Hey! So excited to see you post this!! Can i ask what time you try to go to bed to wake up at 5:30 every morning? I work most nights till late so getting up at that time is mission impossible hahaha

[@inmimisbowl]

My morning routine includes watching your morning routine video while eating my scrumptious bowl of oatmeal haha. Love ya Caitlin

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

aw!!! Love you Mimi :)

[@JannieLy30]

Do a night routine pleaseee :)

[@violetanderson3321]

Dr. Bronners ❤❤❤

[@ayochelseaaa5683]

Great video! Yoga looks fun yet hard to do. A lot of muscles are used.

[@nataliehagins]

You can just use do not disturb mode (the moon on the swipe up screen) and you notifications will come in when you unlock your phone and not turn your cell signal off

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

Turning your cell signal off has also been shown to help you have improved sleep and better dreams at night!

[@Hannah-vp6eq]

Would you mind posting the academic studies proving this? This assertion seems highly unlikely but I'm curious to see the science behind it (and potentially be proven wrong).

[@minamiyamada9381]

Caitlin Shoemaker please post the study that shows this 🙏🏻 I'm very skeptical

[@mariagalleriaxi8632]

Hannah actually I think she meant that indirectly, seemingly because having the knowledge that your cell signal is off can give you the assurance that one disturbance is gone, putting you more at rest. that's what leads to more peaceful dreams.

[@biancaoppizzi3335]

awesome video Caitlyn! it left me wondering if you have stopped oil pulling though

[@agnesupnorth9212]

Waking up early is sooo nice, I'm still working on it :) slowly getting there

[@wholisticeats9370]

And once again, we are reading the same book, "How Not To Die" lol . I remember reading "You're A Badass" at the same time as you. Loved the video!

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

great minds think alike? ;)

[@wholisticeats9370]

haha. Thank you for inspiring me to start my own youtube channel. Looking forward to see your future videos!

[@wholisticeats9370]

Thank you :) I appreciate it!

[@michellesunshinestar]

Thank you for the airplane mode idea. Sometimes I get rain alerts in the middle of the night.

[@katherinevazquez8110]

felt like i was rewatching this video when i watched it... like i heard it before haha! anyways nice bass girl!

[@CaitlinShoemaker]

you probably heard me editing it the night before LOL...but thaanks ;)

[@kaylagissing737]

Thank you for sharing and inspiring people in very healthy and kind ways :) Morning routines are so important! My routine is similar but I oil pull with coconut oil as soon as I wake up. Have you ever tried this? It is great for cleaning out any toxins in your mouth. Look forward to seeing your next video!!

[@teaandcakeaf]

I loved the times in my life when I've had a morning routine! I'm working on getting up earlier these days. I don't sleep well due to allergies and am always exhausted. (Breathing is hard for me to do while laying down. lol.) Thanks for the inspiration. =) I also like to oil pull in the mornings.

[@zainabazam8647]

What backpack do you have? It just looks super sturdy and not ugly lol I've been looking for one. Thanks, and omg you get up at 5:30?! well done love.
