You know how timing in your life is a funny thing? Do you see it? Do you see when that random email comes through about how to combat 'everyday' stress when you've just been stressing about everyday things, and wondering what you should do about stress every day?
Exactly. I do. And if you don't, try to trust the timings of your life. The signs that swoop in just as you've been thinking about that exact thing. Trust it, follow it, try it.
If you're not a fan of Goop, I think you should be. Sure, some of the Gwenyth Paltrow founded site's articles are too woo woo (hello, sticking crystals up your woo woo for who knows what) and some are too Hollywood (thanks for showing me that $5000 outfit, I think I'll wait til next season.) But right in the middle are the gems that are just right for you. And really, what's the harm in reading or e-window-shopping those pretty (expensive) clothes, if you want to level up, then at least embrace the process as a feasible 'someday I totally will click buy' process.
Which brings me to this article that settled into my inbox just at the right time. My stress was up to *here*, my anxiety could hit a 12 before breakfast, and there wasn't a life or death reason why. The question and the answer of this ashwangandha powder resonated so deeply with me, that I didn't care what it cost, it is cheaper than therapy and therefore worth a try.
Truth be told, I've been getting a does of the ashwa--root in my morning Ionix tonic. And it kind of makes sense why I habitually reach for it each morning to take a shot and start my day. But I don't do things by halves, and if I could get my hands on the full strength powder, well, why not.
I have to say, I've put this powder in my morning coffee, my evening tea, even a quick shot in water before bed; and I'm really loving it. I find it relaxes me, and soothes me into a calm sleep (with some crazy fun dreams... or is that the wine talking) and I'm committed to committing to it for at least a few weeks to see how it settles into my life.
For now, read the article that inspired me, here. Find out more about it in my existing morning nutrition system, Ionix Supreme. And buy the bad boy root product here or here. Let me know if you try it and how you like it.
