A Word from The Raw Food Girl
You can have the greatest, healthiest, most fulfilled life in the world and still have days where you really just don’t want to get out of bed.
Maybe you’re tired because you’ve been up all night with a crying baby. Maybe you partied all night long and are now dog tired and hung over. Or maybe you went to bed early, had an excellent night sleep and for whatever reason, still wake up stuffed the next day.
We’ve all been there. Some of us more than others, but nevertheless we all have crappy I’m-so-over-it days sometimes. On days like this, I force myself to do three things to get some energy happening. None of them are difficult so just hear me out.
So here they are. My ‘Top 3 Tips for the Totally Stuffed’:
Doing these four things will start you off with alkalinity, concentrated nutrients and a positive frame of mind.

So here they are. My ‘Top 3 Tips for the Totally Stuffed’:
- Have a large drink of lemon water, preferably cold. If you’re really stuffed, add spirulina and chlorella powder and heaps more lemon to hide the taste (it tastes FOUL but totally works).
- Swallow a dose of Juice Plus capsules (with your lemon water).
- Think of 3 things you’re grateful and focus on them for at least 3 minutes
- This is my daily ritual and it works for me every time. I get up at 5.30am most day, so trust me, I need it.
