5 ways to wake up on the right side of the bed ;)
Hey friends, it’s Emilia! Hope you had a great Monday. I’m often asked how Taren and I can wake up so early and get to the gym all while looking so chipper! So I thought I would share my tips with you on how to wake up and make your day kick some a@$!
1. Set an intention or affirmation for your day: Every morning ask yourself how do you want to feel throughout your day? What are the action steps you are going to take to achieve this? Your positivity will radiate. Write quick little notes that reinforce how amazing you are. Positive affirmations work!! If you don’t see how beautiful, smart and fabulous you are, how is anyone else going to see it?!
2. Morning Flush: This is our fav healthy go to morning drink... don’t worry it’s not a cocktail (or do worry if that’s your thing). But seriously this drink gets everything in your body moving and shaking so you can feel light and energized! Add warm water, a squeeze of lemon and a Tbl spoon ground flax seeds together. The metablosim will be boosting, system will be digesting and skin a glow’n.
4. Daily 30: We love getting in our early morning exercise. Our favorite is a run or walk first thing, for at least 20-30 minutes. It gets you feeling refreshed and ready for the whole day! It can be any form you like and you can break this up throughout the day. Get your heart racing with some moving and shaking!
5. Eat Breakfast : Make breakfast an easy thing that take no more than 5 minutes to make. It will keep you full all morning and help you avoid hitting crashes. Our fav go to's from our recipe book: homemade granola and plain greek yogurt, protein, fruit and veg smoothies and eggs and toast
#4 Reflect, Release, Relax: Feeling tension in your body? This is usually related to how we are feeling. Find a few minutes in your day to set aside for yourself, take a quick body scan and access where you are feeling tight. Take a few deep breathes and stretch those muscles you find get most wound up in your day. You will feel a difference instantly and more relaxed.
We hope you find these tips helpful, please share with us what works for you and if you have any questions, we would love to hear from you!
Happy Mornings,
Emilia xoxo
