Back To School, but without the stress

The end of summer is approaching, and the little ones will soon be returning to school while the big ones go back to their workplaces. The daily grind and that feeling of constant hurry are on the horizon – it’s the same story every year. But not this time. We’ve put together some ideas that will help you to stay calm and hold onto that great holiday feeling.

1. Fruit up your day

This is what Chantal recommends in Healthy Food, Happy People. Give yourself a great Energy Boost, a Brain Power drink, a glass of Green Beauty or try out the Mango Power and drift away to a subtropical paradise. The book is also packed with inspiring ideas for filling lunches and healthy snacks. Why not have a serving of anti-aging avocado and papaya salad?

2. Make sure you have wellness time

After the morning rush you will benefit greatly from inhaling deeply and exhaling very slowly. The latter is especially important when it comes to true relaxation. Do these breathing exercises while making a cup of Hari Tea, in preparation for your well-deserved wellness time. Hari Tea is the latest wellness tea brought to you by the makers of Yogi Tea. For new devotees we recommend you try the Buddha Box, which allows you to try out the various Hari Tea flavours.

3. Eat quinoa, and use it on your body too

Quinoa is the popular high-protein grain that today can be found in almost every home. The hype around quinoa has also caught on in the cosmetics industry, and with full justification too, as quinoa is high in amino acids. Your hair and body cells can also absorb these building blocks when you apply hair and bodycare products. Green People has added quinoa to a deodorant, shower gel, shampoo, conditioner and in a styling gel.

4. Drink sunshine

Don’t worry about the fact that autumn is approaching and the skies will be overcast more frequently – you can simply drink your vitamin D, maintaining your immune system and preventing the winter blues from setting in. You can choose between Amanprana’s plant-based vitamin D with or without saffron. Both varieties are delicious as a relaxing ‘soup’ with a dash of salt.

5. End your day with Shoti Maa

When the day comes to an end, the equilibrium you started off with may well be off-kilter. The five chakra teas that Shoti Maa offers can restore the balance of your elements. Vata body types can earth themselves with Touch the Ground or unwind with Emotional Detox, while the Kapha can invigorate their digestive systems through Purity Flame and the Pitta among you will rediscover their space with Joyful Silence. Choose your perfect tea for concluding the day.
