<p>Bella Middleton definitely isn’t short of things on the to-do list – as founder of Norfolk Natural Living, a lifestyle brand and shop in Holt which is all about upping the luxury in our daily rituals, and a mum to three little ones (as well as pooch Hobbes), it’s fair to say she’s almost always on the go. But she still finds time for those all-important moments of me-time – surely we all want to know her secret?</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-what-wakes-you-in-the-morning"><strong>What wakes you in the morning?</strong></h2>



<p>It&#8217;s usually my children who wake me up – the first thing they do is sneak in our bedroom! We have a certain routine in the week for school mornings and then I think all three of them know I enjoy a slower morning on a Saturday and Sunday!</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>What’s the very first thing you do on waking?</strong></h2>



<p>I always try to have five minutes to myself so I&#8217;ve been challenging myself recently to have a cold shower every morning. I spritz my Energising Boost Shower Mist before getting in and I find it a perfect way to start my day.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Do you bounce out of bed or do you need to be dragged still clutching your duvet?</strong></h2>



<p>It all depends on how many hours of sleep I get! I would say I&#8217;m definitely more of a morning person than evening.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>What’s the first thing you eat/drink?</strong></h2>



<p>My favourite type of breakfast is poached eggs on toast with lots of pepper and a glass of freshly-squeezed orange juice, but sadly I don&#8217;t always have the time for that – it&#8217;s usually a weekend treat! My first drink of the day is usually a cup of coffee and I try to eat breakfast with the children before the manic school run! It&#8217;s usually some fruit and yoghurt.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>How do you set the mood for the day?</strong></h2>



<p>To enhance my mood for the day I always start with using our Energising Boost pulse point oil. It’s blended with six essential oils including grapefruit, red thyme and basil – we have boosted it with carnelian gemstones as this is known for their ability to stimulate creativity and motivation!</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Who else shares your morning space?</strong></h2>



<p>My husband, three children and our dog Hobbes.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>What’s on the radio/podcast/TV?</strong></h2>



<p>I would definitely recommend listening to Michael Mosley’s Just One Thing podcast. He explores these benefits in so many ways I never even thought would link to mental health.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>What skincare/beauty products do you swear by?</strong></h2>



<p>My daily skincare routine at the moment is cleansing my face with our Coastal Walks face wash, followed by our everyday oil! I absolutely love using this, it&#8217;s so moisturising for the skin and it can also be used to remove makeup – it&#8217;s also great for all of the family as well.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>What’s the first thing you do outside?</strong></h2>



<p>I love going for a morning walk around my local park, I always try to wake up before the children to take the dog out – it&#8217;s a great way to get 20 minutes to myself and kickstart my morning! I pop my headphones in and take in all the morning nature.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>How do you choose what to wear?</strong></h2>



<p>Believe it or not, my youngest daughter loves playing dress up and every day she will ask if she can help me choose my outfit for the day. It brings so much joy to her day and it brings lots of fun to our mornings!</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>If you are having breakfast out, what’s your favourite local spot and why?</strong></h2>



<p>I would have to choose <a href="https://www.theguntonarms.co.uk" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Gunton Arms</a> – I love sitting there with a hot coffee waiting for my breakfast and watching the stags outside with a warm fire on. The perfect morning spot.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>If you could wake up anywhere, where would it be?</strong></h2>



<p>Again, I think it would have to be The Gunton Arms!</p>
