Motivation Monday | 4 Energy Boosters without Caffeine

Get past the Monday Blues

We can all agree that Mondays are the worst days. We all just enjoyed personal freedom all weekend long and now unfortunately have to go back to subjecting ourselves to the daily rituals and inboxes we live in 40 hours a week.

Here are my top remedies to keep you alert and better functioning on the day when we ALL need it the most!

1. Ginseng

Ginseng, a perennial plant found in northern china and Korea, also referred to as panex ginseng. Ginseng is an adaptogen in the body, by stimulating the adrenal glands allowing the body to function better under stressors while combating the feeling of fatigue.

2. Spirulina

Spirulina, a blue- green algae, is the most protein dense nutrient as well as complete protein containing all the essential amino acids. This super green detoxes the blood and oxygenates the body allowing a higher level of brain function and ultimately negates the feeling of fatigue.

3. Maca

Maca root according to the ancient Incan civilization this magical root has been known for increasing your energy and stamina. Monday is a day of endurance and this root might just do the trick!

4. Ashwagandha

Ashwagandha (ä-shwə-ˈgän-də) is a berry like fruit local to India which acts as a vitalizer in the body to stimulate brain activity and help relieve symptoms of nervous exhaustion, fatigue, and memory loss. This brain booster will give you an extra pep in your step and leave you functioning at a higher level for longer.
