That’s right, I decided to try to kick my favorite habit for 15 days straight AND reinforce another, healthier for me, one in it’s place.
Many of you know from following me that my coconut milk latte habit is a delicious part of my morning ritual. I walk to my favorite cafe each day and take some time to journal for ten to fifteen minutes while I sip it and start off the day. However, for the past year or so, when I tune into my body and see what’s working for it and what’s not, I’ve been hearing, “please stop the coffee”. Naturally, I have been struggling to listen to it. In a lot of ways I feel like coffee (or lattes) are one of the few ‘treats’ I truly look forward to.
My body continued to keep communicating though and I soon realized how inflamed and anxious my morning delight made me feel.
I started switching over to Vahdam Teas Organic Green Tea every once in a while to switch up my morning beverage. I loved it so much that I reached out to Vahdam and asked if they wanted to collaborate with me on my project to release coffee and replace it with tea.
They took things even on step further and sent me all of their *caffeine free* tumeric teas based around this powerful superfood. I’ve been a huge fan of tumeric as an anti-inflammatory ingredient since I started going to yoga festivals a few years ago and noticed how much better my body felt when I consumed it. What a perfect way to not only get my body back on track and heal some of the inflammation that I’ve been dealing with but also a delicious substitute to help me shift the habit.
