Post-Vacation Protocol

Healing Your Vacation Hangover

Post-Vacation Protocol:
Getting the toxins out✌🏼and your butt back in gear.

1. Sleep is still king. 💤 I hope you got plenty on your time off and continue to now that you’re home. 
2. Don’t think of your trip as a set back; think of it as a *reset*. You might not have been eating healthy, but that doesn’t mean the trip wasn’t healthy for you. You may have been around more positive people, you probably were less stressed, you hopefully got more sleep, and Vitamin D from the sun. Be grateful for the ups in those categories and use that as fuel now that you’ve returned to work. You may even appreciate your job and a routine now that you’re back.
3. WATER. Drink it all. Add lemon or steep green or dandelion tea. 
4. Sweat. 💦 Sauna for 20-30min if you can! Workouts. 🔥 I turn to high-rep leg workouts (lunges, running, stairs, jump squats, spin) to burn a higher amount of calories. Sign up for a group fitness class or a trainer to keep you accountable. 
5. Detox foods: garlic, fermented foods, walnuts, ginger, turmeric, cruciferous vegetables, asparagus, parsley, cilantro, beets, fiber. Soup is a great way to get a lot of these gems at once. Go to @thedailychs and get their Resolution Bowl for all the goods in one spot. Avoid: processed food/sugar, gluten, canola oil, soy, corn, pork, dirty dairy. 
6. Intermittent Fast. You know about it by now. Try 14-16hrs without anything but WATER 2-3x this week. Break your fast with tea or coffee, celery juice, protein, or a small meal with healthy, easy to digest ingredients.
