5 AM MORNING ROUTINE | sunrise chasing & new writing project

I love your morning routine, especially the view of the great outdoors. Sending hugs from So. Cal xo

Mornings really are the best when you can enjoy the beauty of them at sunrise. Love to see the earth wake up 🌅

This whole video is delightful. From the dawn chorus of the birds to Cymbeline to the wisteria, I thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you for sharing.

In Spain we have a saying: "A quien madruga, Dios le ayuda" (God helps those who get up early), our version of "The early bird catches the worm" haha
A lovely video, as always!🌄💗

The time lapse is stunning, Emma! ♥️Sunrise is a favorite and dew, too. Yes, moonset. 🤩Truth about exercise. 😂 So cool you found something you like. A Painter DID color those elephant leaves. 😌🥹😍Yes, I hear you on a writing discipline. I love your Cymbeline book plan. 😍 Your parents comments on Cymbeline. 😜Wisteria is SO beautiful. 💜💜💜

Beautiful video! I’ve been into slow living and more lifestyle videos and find them inspiring. This video gives me such inspiration too! One day I wish to have such a lovely farmhouse just like you. Best wishes ✨

Those sunrise shots were stunning! I usually get up kinda late in the morning, but waking up early is truly worth it to see that beautiful dawn 🌄I'm so excited to see your new book about Cymbeline! I'm currently working on a writing project myself, and it's been really fun but also a struggle sometimes (I tend to get writer's block pretty quick) 😅

Thank you so much, Emma, for this beautiful video. Loved everything about it. Looking forward to your book😺

I did a talk yesterday and the life of frances hodgson Burnett. They loved my childhood memory of my sister pretending to be Mary Lennox and finding a key in the garden. She used to bury keys then find them. Once she buried the shed key and had forgotten where she had buried it. It still hasn’t turned up. Xx

This video was so beautifully filmed, the scenery outside your home is so beautiful! Xx

Beautiful scenery! Did you get to see the lunar eclipse/ blood moon the other night? I could see it from my bedroom window. Of course, if you get up at 5 am, you probably didn't want to stay up that late! Haha.

I just adore your videos. We have so much in common and it feels like I’m spending time with a friend watching you. This definitely inspires me to wake up earlier.

What a fun video! And good luck with your book!! How exciting 🤗📖

Excellent videography.

This is a lovely video. I enjoyed it so much. Your videos are always so inspiring. It's so good to see the beauty of nature where you live, in all the different seasons of the year. I also love your reading vlogs. Thank you so much!

I have noticed that when I do have breakfast I get more hungry throughout the day. 🤷‍♀️ I have no idea why either. 😂

Thanks for the Denise Austin reminder. I forgot how lovely her workouts are. I have the Gilad app on my TV and have worked out with him since I was a teenager. I enjoy his workouts for the same reason. They are all filmed on the beach in Hawaii and are so beautiful and always different so I don’t get bored. I need variety to keep motivated. Will check out Denise Austin.

I love those morning colors, and that mist across the fields…😍

I wish I were disciplined enough to have an early morning. I usually wake up 40 minutes before I need to leave for work & end up rushing.

Love the word “festooned”.

I'm happy and sad Cymbeline has moved in with your parents... She was so much fun to watch! Definitely need to have an exercise and writing schedule or it doesn't get done! I'm with you there, Emma. Have a great weekend and thanks for sharing your morning with us! :) Barbara

This was a lovely video and I enjoyed seeing your routine! 🌸🌸🌸

This was great!! I’m going to give Denise Austin a try!

Lol, I remember Denise Austin!! 😆 i use Pond’s moisturizer too, mostly because a jar lasts literally forever lol. Good for you for working writing into your schedule!

Honey gold light- mmmm….I so love this description!!

Oh my goodness!! Your Mary Poppins mug is one of my favorites!!! And I noticed Felicity’s finger vase, tea pot, and carriage !!!!

Thank you for sharing! Like you Magnificant is lovely. As much as I am not a cat lover your tales sound whimsical and fun.GO for it! I recently retired so I trying to avoid 5 AM as much as possible...too much like my work schedule....

Thank you for inspiring the bookish kingdom to have a great morning routine! ☀️ 📖

Your cat is so cute! 😻

Ahh this is so inspiring! Thank you for sharing it with us!! I hope your Cymbeline story is going well 😻

I love Cymbeline!

I missed this one when it came out! Now we are in the second half of Summer daydreaming of Autumn and the sunrises will be later, Last year I took some pretty photos of an amazing sunrise at a wildlife preserve, there is something magical about "being in" a sunrise, This beautiful vide reminds me of the gentle quite home-keeping videos, love this content

Such a beautiful video. Would love to read your Cymbaline book. She is gorgeous 😻

Great Vlog! But way to early for me. Im a night owl myself 🎉😮

I was jokingly going to say, "I bet you pray the rosary then watch an old Mousercise VHS"... but it seems like I wasn't too far off...

The wisteria canopy is spectacular!

What a lovely video- the wisteria is amazing’
