This recovery day begins the night before with the reduced anticipatory stress of having to wake early for your morning workout. Your morning routine will take significantly less time to accomplish so you can add an extra 60 minutes to your sleep or spend extra time with the kids or preparing for the next day, the night before.
This is the sweet spot of the morning where you can support your liver with a hot cup of Dandy Blend (see link below) and your journal in your lawn or garden and write all the things that support the balance of your world. Whether it is inspirational ideas for your business, health successes, gratitude for your blessings, frustrations that need to be sorted out or personal goals that you want to organize more clearly. This is your mind and body restoration and mental preparation for the day ahead.
When you finish your drink and journal entry, go through a mobility series practicing the strategies we have used finding the spots with more congestion that need releasing. Use the Hypervolt to prepare the area that you will work with the Mobility Wall to increase hydration. Be sure to have your water with you as you go through this session.
