Default First Grammar Question in Years

I was teaching a class and the students had a correction exercise to do. One question popped up about the following statement:

"I have breakfast before having a shower".

How would you teach the usage of this? I checked my grammar book but couldn't find much about this. How would you teach when to use the continuous form with simple form? Which action should be continuous or not? Just having a stumble with this one and need help.
