There’s something sacred about the early morning—before the world is fully awake, before your phone starts buzzing, before the to-do list starts demanding your attention.
At Surfly, we believe in starting slow and intentional. Even if that means waking up just 30 minutes before your normal wake-up call to slow it down. We all know that a good night routine sets the foundation for a good morning, so check out these tips for mindful nighttime rituals.
Our latest collection, SUN, is inspired by that exact feeling: the gentle glow of sunrise, the stillness of morning air, the space to breathe and move before the day begins.
If you’ve been craving more rhythm, presence, or energy in your life, a simple morning routine might be exactly where to start. Here are a few ways to start slow so you can shine bright the rest of the day.
1. Rise with the Sun
There’s a reason sunrise walks are at the heart of the Surfly Club. Getting outside first thing helps reset your circadian rhythm, boost mood, and give you that natural dose of Vitamin D. It doesn’t have to be long—just 10 minutes of fresh air can do wonders.
Try this: Leave your phone behind and take a short loop around the block or to your favorite spot to watch the sky change.
2. Fill Your Cup
Simple but essential. We love starting the day with a tall glass of water, a pinch of sea salt, and a squeeze of lemon. Add a matcha latte, green smoothie, or even coconut water espresso (👀—hello, Surfly x Social Collab!) to fuel up for the day ahead.
Try this: Prep a few morning beverages or breakfast staples at the start of the week to make your routine easy and enjoyable. For a less jittery morning, try one of our green tea recipes.
3. Let Your Body Wake
You don’t need a 90-minute HIIT workout to feel your best. A few yoga flows, a sunrise jog, or even 10 minutes of pilates can help you feel more connected to your body and grounded in your day.
Try this: Keep a pair of Rise Shorts or your favorite Surfly set by your bed—if it’s easy to grab, it’s easier to go.
4. Set the Tone
Your mindset is powerful. Before diving into work or your phone, try journaling for 5 minutes, listening to a podcast, or simply sitting in silence. Reflect on how you want to feel today. What energy are you bringing into the world?
Try this: Create a “sunrise” playlist—one that makes you feel calm, clear, and inspired. We made one for you here.
5. Wear What Moves With You
Whether you're heading to the studio, walking the dog, or grabbing coffee with a friend, your clothes should support the life you're building. The Sun Collection was made for this—soft, breathable, and ready for whatever your morning looks like.
Shop the full collection here and wear your sunrise.
You don’t need to overhaul your whole routine to create change. Start small. Choose one thing that helps you feel grounded and build from there. The goal isn’t perfection—it’s presence.
Here’s to chasing light and showing up fully.
