In this episode, Dr. Vickie sits down with author/speaker Jennifer Dukes Lee to discuss her book, “How to Love Your Morning.” Jennifer redefines what it means to be a morning person. And she shares why morning routines aren’t about what time you wake up, but about how you wake up and what you do to set your attention on God and set the tone for your day.

Dr. Vickie brings the lifestyle medicine lens. connecting the science of gratitude, light exposure, and circadian rhythms to the spiritual practices Jennifer champions.

  • Why “I’m not a morning person is not a label worth keeping and how to replace it
  • How structural rearrangement (neuroplasticity) occurs in the brain from thinking about God, no matter your faith
  • The connection between your morning routine and how well you sleep at night
  • Why Jesus’ quiet time didn’t look Instagram worthy
