Must-Do Morning Rituals to Keep You Healthy and Happy

Wake Up early.  Early means from 5 am to 5:30 am.



Say a prayer of abundance.  This one is my favorite prayer to say every morning. It is the Novena to God’s Love by my mentor, Bro. Bo Sanchez, a Catholic Preacher. 





Eat fruits. Eat at least two kinds of fruits in the morning. Eat your fruits before eating anything else. Eat them on an empty stomach. This is your breakfast. You break the fast with fruits. Fruits work like natural brooms.  Eat them up until your lunch.  Personally, since I easily get starved in the morning, I eat fruits first then I do some stretching to let my cup of hot milk cool down for little bit. I drink the milk at least an hour or two after I ate fruits. Mostly, I ate bananas and then I pair them with oranges or mangoes or pears or any fruit I can find in the fridge.

I mentioned that fruits should be eaten on empty stomach since fruits are easily and quickly digested if taken alone which means nutrients are easily absorbed by your body which is very important, of course. The simple sugars in the fruits need time to be completely absorbed by your body hence; at least an hour to two is needed prior to eating meals. Also, if you eat fruit close to a meal, especially right after a larger meal and combine with other foods, it is held in the stomach too long along with other foods and will rot and ferment in the gut which can upset your stomach.




Flex those joints. If full exercise cannot be done because you have to prioritize other activities like preparing food for your family and preparing to go to work, if you’re working, then just squeeze in some very quick stretching. Even just 5 or 10 minutes of stretching can help you a lot to maintain a healthy body, your youth and glow.
