Habits

Organic Green Tea

• Rich in catechins (EGCG) → antioxidants that support brain, heart, and metabolic health
• Naturally calming yet mentally clarifying
• Gentle caffeine + L-theanine = focus no jitters

Lemon Juice (one lemon)

• Vitamin C enhances absorption of green tea catechins
• Supports digestion and liver function
• Brightens flavor and reduces bitterness

Manuka Honey (1 teaspoon)

• Adds antibacterial + anti-inflammatory support
• Soothes the throat and digestive tract
• Provides slow & gentle sweetness without spikes

Close your eyes and put your hand on your heart.  Breathe in to the count of 6 and breathe out to the count of 6.  Breathe into the chest in round 1.  Repeat 5 to 10 times.  Then put your hand on your stomach and repeat breathing into the stomach in round 2.

Write down 3 things you are thankful for or make a list of all you are thankful for in life that you can review each morning.  It is critical to feel the emotion of gratitude as you write or review the words.  When we emotionalize, we internalize.

Know Your Body and Be Sure to Check in everyday for how you feel!

Practical Priorities 

If you want a simple, effective stack to begin with, consider:

1. Omega-3 (EPA+DHA)
2. Vitamin D3 + K2
3. Turmeric (Curcumin with piperine)
4. Magnesium (glycinate)
5. Probiotics
6. Creatine

These sic cover inflammation, metabolic health, brain support, gut balance, muscle maintenance— the foundations of healthy aging.

A cold therapy head wrap is a simple way to quiet the nervous system and reset the mind. By gently cooling the entire head, it helps release tension held in the scalp, jaw, and temples while signaling the body that it’s safe to slow down. Thoughts soften, pressure eases, and mental clarity returns without effort. Used for just a few minutes—especially in the evening or during moments of overwhelm—it becomes a small daily ritual of containment, calm, and return.

The warmth of a shower can put you in a state of receptiveness and creativity.   Warmth doesn’t give you ideas.  It removes the resistance to receiving them. 

• Before you step into the shower, ask a question like:  What would clarity feel like here?
• Let the water cascade over your head and body.  Lift your arms over your head and breathe in to the count of 5.  Lower your arms and breath out to the count of 5.  Repeat.  Lower your hands & feel and the negativity, fear, stress & anxiety wash away.

The Chinese do this style of morning movement because it’s the fastest way to wake the body up before the day starts, get blood moving, open the joints, clear stiffness, and bring your system into balance before food, stress, and screens take over. The magic is consistency: a little every day beats a big session once a week.

An "I AM" Manifesto will remind you what you stand for and help you move through the world--On Purpose

Here's an example:

I AM...__________.  I Am a child of God and being God made am intended to live a strong, positive, and abundant life.  God made me for success.  I AM embarking on the great object of my existence believing in myself and my abilitly to be God called me to be.  I AM proud to express my creativity, intelligence, encouragement, and wisdom as God's gift to the world.  

I AM!

Vision Boards are a great way to create a tangible way to see the life your desire.  Keynote or Powerpoint are great but AI can help.  Create a page for every area of life: faith, relationships, finances, body/health, career, dreams, give back, travel, home, etc.  Add your self photo in each.  When you review this, listen to music that inspires you.  Emotion with vision is critical!  This is the hack.

Hydrogen Peroxide Swish

• tartar builds up naturally and teeth look dingy or even brown
• a quick swish morning and night will reduce tartar build up and keep teeth whiter until your next cleaning

Long car trips can be exhausting and we can feel physically blah.  I would do core tightening for 15 to 20 seconds periodically.  They keep you tight and help you feel more invigorated.
