UPON ARISING
Immediately upon awaking, one must be conscious of God, Master of the universe. One would not remain lying in bed in the presence of a human king, and surely not in the presence of God. Therefore, one should say I offer thanks immediately upon awaking, for one will thereby be made aware of God's presence, and will rise quickly. See additional laws on page 586.

מוֹדֶה אֲנִי לְפָנֶיךָ מֶלֶךְ חַי וְקַיָּם, שֶׁהֶחֱזַרְתָּ בִּי
נִשְׁמָתִי בְּחֶמְלָה. רַבָּה אֱמוּנָתֶךָ:

MORNING BLESSINGS
It is forbidden to mention God's name in a blessing, or to utter words of Torah, before ritually washing the hands. "I offer thanks," however, may be recited even before washing one's hands, since the text does not contain any of the Divine names. One should wash the hands before getting out of bed, and then, after dressing and rinsing the mouth (except on a public fast day), one washes again and recites the Morning Blessings.
ORDER OF WASHING THE HANDS
Take a cup of water in the right hand, pass it to the left hand, and pour water over the entire right hand until the wrist. Take the cup in the right hand and pour over the entire left hand. Wash twice more, so that each hand has been washed three times in alternating sequence (on Tishah b'Av and Yom Kippur, wash only until the knuckles). Dry the hands.
Stand while reciting the Morning Blessings.
