Vive’s Nootropic Drink and Morning Routine for Beginners
Morning Routine for Beginners: do you need a Nootropic Drink?
Embarking on a journey of self-care can be both exciting and overwhelming. If you're new to self-care and want to start your day feeling amazing (without the confusion) we've got you covered. In this blog post, we'll guide you through a morning routine that encompasses the key elements of wellness. Vive’s nootropic drinks can help you with clarity, focus and energy but it’s important to keep it simple by prioritising hydration, movement, and nutrition first. Let's dive in!
Start Your Day with Hydration
Kickstart your morning routine by hydrating your body with a refreshing twist. Squeeze fresh lime into a glass of water and add a pinch of salt. This mix is best served at room temperature or slightly warmer. This simple concoction replenishes electrolytes, aids digestion, and boosts your energy levels. The combination of lime and salt provides essential minerals, and because the mixture is alkaline, your body will absorb it more readily, hydrating you quickly for a vibrant day ahead.
The first five hours after waking are the best time to consume most of your water. Prepare water for the day ahead so that you can capitalise on this tip. Hydration plays a vital role in maintaining optimal bodily functions, enhancing mental clarity, and promoting overall well-being. Invest in a large reusable water bottle and keep it with you. Set reminders to sip water throughout the day. Staying hydrated supports your energy levels, metabolism, and overall vitality. If you want to add some excitement to your fluid intake, Vive Drink’s nootropic drink is the perfect way to incorporate low-calorie, brain-boosting hydration into your day.
Morning Movement: Connect with Your Body
Yoga is a safe place to start. With the abundance of YouTube videos and mobile apps available, you can easily access beginner-friendly yoga routines in the comfort of your own home. Practicing in your own space allows you to go at your own pace and build confidence gradually. If you're starting yoga at home, we recommend this Yoga Mat by MOBECO. It provides excellent grip and cushioning, is sustainable, and looks fantastic.
Engaging in exercise in the morning can have numerous benefits for your physical and mental well-being. Not only does it kickstart your metabolism and boost your energy levels, but it also sets a positive tone for the rest of the day. Morning exercise allows you to prioritise your self-care before the demands of the day take over, leaving you feeling accomplished and empowered.
Balanced Breakfast: Fuel Your Body and Focus
After your workout, provide your body with the nutrients it needs. Enjoy a balanced meal consisting of high-quality protein and carbohydrates. Protein aids in muscle recovery and repair. Some options include Greek yogurt, whey protein powder, eggs, meats, and tofu.
Post-workout is the best time to consume carbohydrates like fruit, oats, rice, potatoes, etc. Carbohydrates replenish glycogen stores and provide sustained energy. By fuelling your body with a nutritious breakfast, you set yourself up for optimal energy levels, improved focus, and regulated appetite throughout the day.
Additional Tips for a Successful Morning Routine:
- Hold off on drinking coffee for the first hour after waking to allow your body to hydrate and energise naturally.
- Even if you can’t exercise or hydrate well in the morning, prioritise exercise and water consumption no matter the time of the day.
- Set your alarm and prepare the night before by planning your outfit and organising your belongings to minimise morning stress.
