Starting my morning off with healthy nutrients and supplements is something I’ve recently been adapting and has made a world of difference in my mindset and mood for the day.
Almost every morning, I have 3 drinks –
- Room Temperature Water with Trace Minerals
- Tea
- This AM Cocktail
This ensures that my body is hydrated and has all the important things needed to keep my body optimal and my mindset level headed throughout the day.
This cocktail has a few different ingredients:
16 oz Filtered Water
1 Scoop Ora Organic Greens Powder
1 Scoop Ora Organic Digestive Enzymes
3 Drops Trace Minerals
1/3 oz Herb Pharm Brain & Memory*
1/3 oz Organic Olivia Mood Juice
AM COCKTAIL
First things first – water. And when I say water, I mean good quality water. I use the Berkey Filteration System to remove a multitude of different things that are commonly found in tap water. Since you’re removing everything from your water, you want to make sure you are adding back the good stuff. Adding Trace Minerals adds in the minerals that are typically found in natural springs.
Next up, the greens! The Greens from Ora Organic gives me a head start. One of the main things that I love about it is that it has both spirulina and chlorella. Both of these are known to help the body detoxify heavy metals and other toxins that can be found in the body.
Also, the Pineapple Digestive Enzymes helps prep my stomach for breakfast. Whatever breakfast I do eat, it ensures that I am properly digesting it which leads to optimal gut-health.
Speaking of gut-health, the R.S. Koso Postbiotic contains over 100 Japanese vegetables, fruits, seaweeds, and mushrooms. The delicate balance of adding everything helps to further cleanse your body of regular toxins.
So now that we’ve got our water, minerals, gut-health (which also leads to skin health), let’s talk mindset.
Now, we all know that nothing that you digest can supplement for good ol’ meditation, but these things can help boost your meditation morning times. The Mood Juice from Organic Olivia helps to decrease stress and increase the production of the happy endorphins your body needs. Since this is my morning drink, I also like to add in the Brain & Memory elixir since it helps with cognition for the work day and helps to decrease brain fog. I usually talk about these two in my regular Holistic Cocktails since they are key factors for me.
The drink is pretty straightforward but that’s it! It tastes slightly citrusy and sweet. I promise you, it doesn’t taste as bad as typical green drink tend to look. Give it a try and enjoy all the morning benefits!
