The Persian poet and scholar Rumi once wrote, “Lovely days don’t come to you, you should walk to them.” An apt message during a time when it can feel that the little things we do have no impact. But just the opposite is true. Each decision we make throughout the day has significance in our lives, the lives around us, and for the planet we share. That’s why the morning is a fitting time to both recognize and harness the power in our choices—be it a simple breathing meditation or eating life-giving plants that allow our bodies, hearts, and minds to thrive.
Below, some favorite ways to feed ourselves each morning. Any of them allow us to walk into our day feeling truly nourished and nurtured.
A Powerful Start That Feels Like Dessert (Featuring Metabolism Super Powder)
This red-hot, plant-rich breakfast’s key ingredient supercharges a sluggish metabolism by bolstering the gut with L-glutamine, reducing water retention and bloat with celery seed, and supporting a healthy thyroid with ample iodine from fucoxanthin, a brown Atlantic seaweed.
A Skin Genius’s Preferred Breakfast
This no-cook, no-fuss bowl comes courtesy of German aesthetics doctor Barbara Sturm. The anti-inflammatory prowess of this breakfast comes in the form of almonds, oats, apple, and coconut yogurt, which offer a gut-healing combination of healthy fats, fiber, and probiotics.
