Don't Touch Your Phone for the First Hour
Dispenza's non-negotiable rule: the first hour after waking determines your nervous system's baseline for the rest of the day. If you check your phone immediately, you're signaling to your biology that external inputs are more important than your internal state. Cortisol spikes. Dopamine dysregulates. You've started the day already reactive. 'The first hour is the most precious hour you have. Everyone else wants to claim it. Protecting it is the single highest-leverage decision you make every day.'
