How to get energised in the morning
I leap out of bed the minute the alarm goes off at 4am and have my clothes ready, so I don’t have to scrabble around in the dark. I neck a mouthful of a probiotic and have just one black coffee – otherwise I’m way too excitable. The minute I get into work, I whack on the tunes really loud: Steely Dan, Toto or some disco. Sing along to the bangers and then you’re off!Before you start, massage the hinges of your jaw so it can relax and drop open.
Breathe into your ribcage and diaphragm as your belly expands, then allow these muscles to contract as you project your voice. Use gestures to increase word emphasis and bring more vocal range. This makes what you say sound more interesting.Drink loads of water and avoid junk food on the flight. Maximise sleep: take an eye mask, earplugs and comfy clothes so you can remove or add layers. When heading west, take a nap when you get to your hotel, and set an alarm.
