Kickstart Your Day the Granarly Way
By: Valerie Smith
Whether you’re an early bird or someone who hits the snooze button a couple times too many, we’ve got you covered with tips to kickstart your day the Granarly way.
-
Breathe
Seems obvious, right? Starting your day off with a few moments of mindfulness can boost your mood and set a positive tone for your day. Take a deep breath, stretch, and reflect on what you’re grateful for.
- Drink water
Drink a glass of water before pushing that “start” button on your coffee maker. Yes, this may seem just downright impossible but your body will thank you later! If you need a little extra flavor, add a slice of lemon or cucumber. Drinking water first thing in the morning helps boost metabolism, flush out toxins, and even improves your immune system.
- Fuel Up
Now onto the best part – food! Here are a few quick and easy ways to incorporate Granarly into your balanced breakfast:
Yogurt bowl: Pick your favorite yogurt and top with honey, fresh fruit, organic peanut butter, and Groovy Green granola.
Overnight oats: Prepare of jar of overnight oats with chia seeds, milk, and your choice of Granarly! (we like Espresso Yo’self or Skinny Jeans)
On the go? Grab one of our Movin’ and Groovin’ Cereal packs, pour in some milk, and hit the road!
- Up your heart rate
Whether it’s a walk around the block, a quick yoga session, or a workout class, get your body moving with some sort of physical activity. Moving your body not only wakes you up but will reduce your stress levels and increase your productivity for the day.
-
Prioritize
Still feeling anxious and overwhelmed about the day? Get to planning! Take a couple minutes to write down your top priorities for the day as well as important tasks you need to complete. Creating a clear plan ensures you use your time wisely and feel accomplished at the end of the day. And don’t forget to schedule some breaks for all of your hard work!
- Take your time!
Enjoy every bite of breakfast, listen to the birds wake up as you walk, and take in the sunshine. Take time to notice the little things in life and smile at yourself for getting up today :)
With these simple steps, you can create a morning routine that not only sets you up for a successful day but also brings a sense of calm and happiness. Starting your day the Granarly way is the perfect way to fuel your adventures, big or small.
Stay Gnarly
