TOP TIPS ON MANAGING MONDAY MORNING BLUES

Picture this. Life is officially back to normal (not long!) and you’ve had a weekend celebrating. But, you have work tomorrow.

So, how can you get involved in these events and occasions, and still manage to show up to work on Monday morning feeling fresh as a daisy? The Turmeric Co., founded by Professional Footballer and Functional Nutritional Expert, Thomas Hal Robson-Kanu, has pulled together its top tips on recovering after a weekend of celebrations.

Stay Hydrated

It’s the oldest trick in the book. As alcohol is a diuretic, meaning it can make you use the bathroom more often, a heavy night can often lead to dehydration. To combat this, try to drink a glass of water before you go to bed on the evening, and a glass as soon as you wake up the next morning.

Get Active

On mornings where nothing sounds better than staying in bed, it is often best practise to muster your strength and get outdoors. Low intensity exercise such as going for a walk, practising yoga, or swimming can all help to regulate the toxins in your body, and increase oxygen flow to your brain. Furthermore, workouts such as these can support the production of mood boosting endorphins – which will help you tackle the mental challenge of returning to work, as well as the physical.

Eat Breakfast

It can be a struggle to eat breakfast when you’re not feeling your best. However, indulging in a high carb breakfast the morning after a long night can help to regulate your blood sugar levels. As alcohol has been found to affect the body’s metabolism of glucose, it is important to reset this function to avoid becoming overly tired and irritable.

Nourish Yourself

To give yourself the best possible Monday morning boost, why not add a nutritious shot into your routine? The Turmeric Co.’s tasty shots have a range of beneficial properties, which could help with the reduction of hangover symptoms such as headaches, low mood, and fatigue.

Available in three flavours, the powerful and unique shots combine superfood ingredients such as piperine (black pepper extract) and flax seed oil, with 35 grams of raw turmeric – more than any other turmeric product on the market!

So, if you have work on Monday morning after a heavy weekend, why not try these top tips to ensure you can celebrate in style, and make your deadlines, too?
