3) Green Nutrition
When you start your morning off with healthy foods, in sets the tone for your entire day. Therefore, integrating some form of green nutrition into your breakfast is one way to boost your mood so that you get off to a positive start.
Fresh green vegetable juices provide the body with all the life-giving and mood-boosting vitamins, minerals, and enzymes to power the body as well as the mind. In your juicer, juice three carrots, three celery stalks, ½ bunch spinach, and ½ bunch parsley. This little mood-boosting green juice is loaded with potassium. It's also highly effective for cleansing the blood and all the tissues of the body. If you like to drink an acidic drink in the morning, such as coffee, this green juice neutralizes those acids while rebuilding your cells.
You'll also want to add a healthy protein and a healthy fat to this green juice when you're putting your morning breakfast together. Healthy fats and proteins support your brain, elevating your mood in the process. Think avocado toasts or a smoothie made with bananas almond milk and almond butter.
Green tea is rich in flavonoids with antioxidant and anti-allergen properties. It also fights against free radical damage to protect against degenerative disease. Sip green tea along with your breakfast for an added boost. Chlorophyll-rich super foods such as chlorella are also great. Did you know that one large scoop of green superfood powder is equal to about six servings of green vegetables? Add a little chlorella or spirulina powder to some hot water in the morning and sip slowly.
