Beam me up Scotty! We just got back from a beautiful trip to Jamaica landed in Florida, prepped our home for possible Hurricane Dorian and now I’m in NYC. With so much travel I do my best to keep my immune system as happy as possible. Below are a few ways I make this happen. This is also a great way to prepare for a shoot. You can use this method 30 days ahead (once a day) or even a week before your shoot.

For me it’s all about taking care of my gut, when your stomach is happy you’re happy! Also supporting myself spiritually, emotionally and physically. I hope these quick tips are useful for you too.

AM Shake Me Up: (makes 2 shakes)

1 ½ Banana (frozen if possible)

5 – 8 Almonds

1/8 teaspoon cardamom

20 minute AM Meditation : Find a quiet spot, set your timer, sit in a comfortable position, close your eyes, breathe in and out of your nose and chant in your head a simple mantra: I like “Sat Nam”. In the ancient Sikh language, Sat means truth. Nam means name. Together, Sat Nam translates into something deeper: “I am truth,” or “Truth is my essence.”

Guided Meditation: I’m a fan of the mediations they offer at the Chopra Center: (Click Here).

Water! So very important to stay hydrated. I typically start my day with a glass of lemon water 30 minutes before eating or drinking anything.  Followed by 3 cups of room temperature water. Then more water throughout the day.
