Energizing Morning Smoothie Bowl
"Everybody's working for the weekend..." Now, every day feels like the weekend! At least working from home it has! On a Saturday, I would spend extra time in the morning to create a nourishing meal as I would lounge around with a cup of coffee in hand. Well, since it is getting warmer here in Kentucky, I’ve been making refreshing smoothie bowls that double as my morning cup of coffee!
Paleo Dalgona Whipped Coffee
One of the worst parts about staying at home is not being able to visit my local coffee shop. Every Saturday, I would spend my mornings at the coffee shop as I sip away on a delicious hot beverage consisting of either a lavender London fog tea or an Americano with oat milk. So instead of dreaming about our old routines, how about we break out our barista skills and make ourselves a specialty caffeinated beverage!
So what is whipped coffee you ask? Well, to be honest, I never heard about whipped coffee until my Facebook feed exploded with this Dalgona coffee, aka “whipped coffee” that started from a TikTok video. I typically steer away from fads but the word “coffee” got my attention so I had to try it out for myself!
How To - Creating A Morning Routine
A great article I read recently explained that the first three hours of your day will make or break the rest of your day. This makes sense since our brain and energy levels are most vulnerable in the morning after being well rested.
When I was in college, I would use this time to do most of my studying since I was more awake and susceptible. Now that I am working and taking classes again, I take about an hour and a half getting ready/commuting to work. As soon as I get to work at 8AM, I tackle the most important tasks. By 11AM, my mind is ready for a break. From the time I am awake until 11 AM, I completely unplug from social media. This has become a vital non-negotiable since I can get VERY easily distracted.
