Habits that allow me to show up as my best self

When it comes to maximising your health and wellness, everyone is so very different. One thing that may work for your friend may have a completely undesired affect on you. That's where I come in... I love to help people understand their very own personal desires to maximise health.

Morning routine Sticking to my morning routine is essential in order for me to have an enjoyable and productive day.

1. I wake up, and take my temperature... Before even opening my eyes. This is how I accurately track where I am in my menstrual cycle.

2. I open the curtains and I look out into the daylight. I look around at the weather and mountains and think of positive thoughts.

3. I journal! 3 things I am grateful for, 3 things that would make today great, and an affirmation.

4. I get up, and I do 10 to 15 minutes of yoga. Sometimes finding my motivation can be a struggle, but I always feel so amazing afterwards.

5. I then drink 2 pints of water, sometimes with some nice salts in.

6. I personally am usually hungry by this point (30/40 minutes after waking up), so I ask my body what it would like to eat... If I am not yet hungry, I usually sit down to start work and drink a fruit tea.

7. I drink a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar before I eat every morning, to help balance my blood sugars through the day.

8. I eat my breakfast, and drink mushroom coffee (decaf)

• Drink a pint of water or two before meals (not after as it can be detrimental to the absorption of the food you are digesting!)
