Bengaluru: A Bengaluru woman’s simple yet refreshing morning routine has won hearts on social media after she shared how she makes time for herself before beginning work, inspiring thousands to rethink their weekday schedules.
Divya Moses, an Instagram creator, posted a video showing how she spends her mornings outdoors before logging into her job at 12 pm. Her post has resonated with professionals who often struggle to balance work with personal well-being.
A different way to start the day
In her post, Moses explained that she wanted her weekdays to be about more than just work.
Instead of spending her mornings scrolling through her phone, she packed breakfast, brewed coffee, carried a book and headed to a lakeside spot surrounded by greenery in Bengaluru.
She described the routine as a small but meaningful way to create space for herself before beginning the workday, adding that it did not require a holiday or weekend—just a conscious decision to prioritise personal time.
Simple moments, lasting impact
The video captures Moses preparing coffee and a homemade breakfast before settling by the lake to enjoy her meal, read a book and soak in the peaceful surroundings.
The clip opens with the message, “Life before I log into my 12 pm job. Weekdays don’t have to be just workdays,” encouraging viewers to find moments of calm even on busy weekdays.
Social media applauds the idea
The video received an overwhelming response online, with many users calling the routine relatable and aspirational.
Comments such as “Love it,” “Would love to do it,” and “OMG! My favourite place” reflected the admiration of viewers. One user admitted struggling with late-night doomscrolling instead of enjoying peaceful mornings, prompting a light-hearted reply from Moses.
While the post reflects one individual’s lifestyle, it has sparked conversations about the importance of work-life balance and making time for mental well-being, even during a busy workweek.
