3 SIMPLE ITEMS – THAT SET YOUR ENTIRE DAY UP FOR SUCCESS
MORNING RITUAL: SALT, WATER, AND LEMON
How the combination of three simple items sets your body up for success
Following a morning ritual is vital to not only for athletic performance but for overall health as well. Any effective morning ritual sets you up for success the entire day to come.
One of the most important reasons you need a morning ritual is that it creates a physical rhythm. Cadence and consistency are key to reaching whatever your goals may be.
Fortunately, the most effective morning rituals don’t have to be tedious or time-consuming.
You can set your body and your entire day up for success by ingesting a small concoction of salt, water, and lemon.
Sounds simple right? That’s because it is. Look at the ingredients below.
Though these three ingredients appear relatively simple, they yield powerful results when combined and ingested fasted first thing in the morning.
12 OUNCES OF WATER
“For those who struggle to hydrate well, this is a great start. Why? Because it get them to drink 12 ounces of water to start their day.” – Coach Melissa
It’s not a secret that water is essential to life and your bodies internal functions. Drinking 12 ounces of it first thing in the morning will help you focus on staying hydrated and maintain your energy throughout the day.
SQUEEZED LEMON
“The lemon provides the gut and stomach the acidity it requires for digestive functions throughout the day.”
Lemon juice is great for gastrointestinal function, Vitamin C production, reduced inflammation and good immune function. It also provides the necessary acidity needed for the stomach and gut to break down any food consumed throughout the day.
HIMALAYAN SALT
“Sodium is vital to proper muscle activation and contractions as well as managing the athlete’s adrenal system.”
Salts provide the main electrolytes and minerals critical for normal function. However, don’t just consume any salt. Himalayan salt is far less processed and less toxic than your traditional table salt. It also provides you with more electrolytes and minerals than average salts.
This morning ritual is an example of a holistic nourishment plan, a program that addresses the specific needs of a client.
