MORNING

Water and Lemon

Why?

Water and Lemon is an auryvedic recipe that has been used for centuries to detoxify and hydrate the body!

The reason it's so special to drink first thing in the morning is because it also gives our metabolism and digestion a 'kick start' and gets things 'moving' in the morning!

Also, as we haven't eaten or drunk anything for about 6/7 hours, it rehydrates the body well.

Recipe

I usually add boiling water and a splash of cold water on top of two small slices of lemon.

Smoothie

You can either start making your smoothie straight away, especially if you are starving or wait until you have finished your exercise class and then start following the recipe below.

If you are not someone who usually makes green drinks, your digestive system might get a bit of a shock if you start adding a large amount of greens in to your diet, quickly. Keep an eye on how you feel and if it's too much, halve the green ingredients of the smoothie.

Smoothie ingredients

1 cup Spinach / Kale

1 Banana

1 tablespoon of Peanut / Almond Butter

1/2 Medjool Dates (pitted)

1 cup of any milk you fancy!

How

Place all the ingredients together in a blender and enjoy!

Evening Drink

It is usually a good idea to take the Magnesium around 10-15 minutes before you go to bed. Not too late before bed or you might need the toilet!

Magnesium Calm

The same if you have chosen the tea instead!

Pukka Night Tea

Meditation

Follow the meditation below just before going to bed to settle the body and help the body understand that it is time to wind down. You can lie in bed with headphones listening to it or sit up in sukha asana (crossed legs, straight back) in bed or on the floor.
