| ==Waking Up in the Morning==
| | #REDIRECT [[Waking Up]] |
| # One should wake up strong like a lion to serve the will of the Creator. <ref>S"A 1:1 </ref>
| |
| # One should always be conscience of Hashem's presense by thinking of the Pasuk "Shaviti LeHashem LeNegdi Tamid" (Tehilim 16:8) <ref> Rama 1:1 </ref>
| |
| # One shouldn't get up immediately because it dangerous to one's health rather one should pasue momentarily and then get up. <ref> Magan Avraham 1:3 says that even though one should get up strongly like a lion to serve Hashem, one shouldn't stand up immediately because it's dangerous as it says in Gemara Gittin 70a. All achronim concur including the Mishna Brurah 1:8, Kaf HaChaim 1:4, and Halacha Brurah 1:1. </ref>

| ==Shaviti==
| |
| # A fundamental principle of Judaism (and specifically halacha) is "Shaviti Hashem LeNegdi Tamid" שויתי ה' לנגדי תמיד (Tehilim 16:8) <ref> Rama 1:1 writes as the first comment in the book that one should keep in mind the principle of "Shaviti". The Arizal's practice was to keep an inscription of Hashem's name before him always (Shaar Ruach HaKodesh 21). This is brought down by the achronim including Bear Heteiv 1:3, Mishna Brurah 1:4, Kaf HaChaim 1:2, and Halacha Brurah 1:3. </ref>

| # Some have the practice to hang up a poster in a glass casing in Shul with a inscription of "Shaviti" (and sometimes the perek of Tehilim 67 "Lamanase'ach Benginot" in the shape of a Menorah). However if it's not encased it's not improper to keep it up. <ref> Shaarei Teshuva 1:3 in the name of the Tevuot Shor that one should nullify the practice to hang up Klaf with Shaviti inscribed on it becasue oepole aren't careful about it leading to a desecration of a holy script and possibly an erasing of Hashem's name. Shaarei Teshuva says that if it's covered by glass then it's of no concern. This is brought as halacha by the Mishna Brurah 1:4. </ref>

| ==Modeh Ani==
| |
| # When one wakes up one should say "Modeh Ani Lifanecha Melech Chai VeKayam, Shehechazarti BeChemlah, Rabba Emunatcha" מודה אני לפניך מלך חי וקים שהחזרת בי נשמתי בחמלה, רבה אמונתך with a pause between BeChemlah and Rabba. <ref> This is first sourced in the Seder Hayom (Beginning of the book; Rabbi Makhir 16th century Tzfat) and then is quoted as halacha by all the achronim including Mishna Brurah 1:8, Kitzur Shulchan Aruch 1:4, Shulchan Aruch HaRav 1:6, Halacha Brurah 1:2. </ref>
| |
| # One can say Modeh Ani even before washing one's hands. <Ref> Because Modeh Ani doesn't have Hashem's name in it, it can be recited before washing hands. so rules the Mishna Brurah 1:8, Shulchan Aruch HaRav 1:6, Halacha Brurah 1:2. </ref>
