‘PBS Idea Channel’ Explores the Importance of Morning Routines

PBS Idea Channel host Mike Rugnetta explores the importance of morning routines and the relationship between coffee and mesmerism in the latest episode of the series.

This episode is about glorious morning coffee. Or more specifically, about our time-tested morning routines. Everybody has their morning routine that they rely on and cling to dearly. The simple acts of brewing coffee, showering, and whatever else you do, makes that first act of climbing out of bed easier. The comfort and familiarity of those repeated actions give us a sense of ownership, and cause us to self identify with these simple set of actions. So what is it about these routines that make them so important to us?
