Morning rituals…we all have them. What are yours? The most popular ones tend to be brushing your teeth, making a cup of coffee or tea, going for a run, or planning out your day. We have all formed habits over time that help us get our day started.

What if I told you that I know four morning rituals that will amp up your energy, health and life? Would you practice these four simple morning rituals daily? Or at least experiment with them for a month? If you’re a Lifehack enthusiast, you’ll love these four morning rituals that will work toward supercharging your overall health.

1. Drink two 8-ounce glasses of water immediately upon waking

Why should I drink water as soon as I wake up? Well, our body content is about 75% water, our brain is about 75% water, our blood composition consists of about 92% water, and our muscles are around 75% water. We are majorly made of water and it is an essential element that we need to live, but you probably knew that already.

Here’s what you may not know about water and hydration. When you wake up in the morning after a night’s sleep, you’re already in a state of dehydration. Your body needs water to kick start the system healthfully, especially in the morning.

A challenge many of us face is not knowing we’re dehydrated when we really are. When we feel thirsty, we have actually gone past the point of initial dehydration. If you’re not drinking water throughout the day, chances are, you are living in a dehydrated state consistently.

Drinking water in the morning provides many benefits:

– Purges toxins from our blood (helps us get rid of morning grogginess)
– Increases cell renewal rate (helps maintain healthy body functioning)
– Boosts metabolism (helps with weight loss)
– Purifies the colon (helps us remove waste from our bodies)
– Makes nutrient absorption easier (helps us get more out of the foods we eat)

BONUS LIFE HACKING TIP: Add lemon with that water.

2. Drink an organic greens juice

A nutritious greens juice is an excellent way to start your morning with essential vitamins and minerals you need, along with a healthy alkalizing boost of chlorophyll to help balance out the slightly acidic state your body may be in the first thing in the morning.

One of the greatest greens juices you can have in the morning is wheatgrass juice and there are at least 50 reasons why you should drink it everyday.

BONUS LIFE HACKING TIP: For an easier way to have a wheatgrass juice daily, I’ve experimented with organic, freeze-dried wheatgrass juice powder from stores and online. Make sure it’s field-grown for the highest nutritional density.

I’ve found Kamut grass juice to be the best and most convenient for me, and it allows me an easy way to enjoy the benefits of greens juices on the go.

3. Rebounding

I’m not talking about the version referenced here, referring to a romance directly following a breakup. I mean jumping on a rebounder to literally jump start your day and your lymphatic system. Since your lymphatic system is basically your body’s garbage disposal, rebounding in the morning is a fun way to detoxify your system and get a nice boost of energy.

BONUS LIFE HACKING TIP: Rebound in the morning for at least 10 minutes while reviewing your day’s goals and visualizing how you want your day to be.

4. Have amazing sex

Who doesn’t want to have amazing sex in the morning? A roll in the hay is a fun, great way to start the day – especially if you’re not a morning person. There are also many amazing health benefits that make having amazing sex a morning ritual that’ll supercharge your heath and sex life:

It boosts your mood, making you happier
Starts the day with love
A roll in the hay keeps the doctor away
– It releases stress
– Gives you something beautiful to reflect on throughout day
– Helps you feel more present
– Brings about a youthful glow

BONUS LIFE HACKING TIP: There’s been a recent craze about HIIT (high intensity interval training), yet no one has talked about HIIF (high intensity interval f**king). Try it out next time by going at it as fast  you can for 30 seconds, then take a 10 second break, then repeat for 5 sets. You’ll boost your heart rate and metabolism and get your body into gear to burn more fat – as well as giving you and your partner some pleasure in the process.

There you have it, 4 morning rituals that’ll super charge your health and give you the energy you need to make the best of your day. Try them out for a month and let me know how your life changes by commenting below!
