Daily Rituals
Daily rituals designed to encourage an escape from the busyness of everyday life, if just for a moment.
Discover the ‘why’ behind our nourishing rituals.
We have all, at times, been guilty of forgetting to prioritise our own needs. It’s so easy to be swept up in the hustle and bustle of daily life - work, home, friends, family - and taking a moment to check in with yourself may be so far down the list of tasks for the day (if on your radar at all) that it rarely happens. Nourishing ourselves, as well as those we care about, enables us to show up as our best.
Our daily rituals are designed to be simple, take only a few moments, and allow you to connect with your intuition and honour your needs. Coupled with affirmations, a simple yet powerful tool to evoke a positive mindset, SANA is an invitation to replenish your mind, body and soul.
Salute the Sun
RADIATE POWER AND VITALITY
The sanskrit term for Salute the Sun is Surya Namaskar - a yogic practice performed to the Sun to give thanks for its life-giving energy.
Regular exposure to morning sunlight is known to support the body’s circadian rhythm, positively influencing hormonal and sleep cycles.
Practising Surya Namaskar promotes presence and mental clarity, while calming the mind. Rhythmic movement and deep breathing also enhance blood flow and oxygenate the body, improving energy levels.
Paired with our Energising Cacao Blend, it’s the perfect morning boost invigorating the mind, body and soul.

Inner Wisdom
Focus Your Energy Inward
Inner Wisdom can be found within the ritual of Pratyahara - the yogic practice of withdrawing your senses from the distractions of the external world.
Pratyahara encourages tuning in with the body’s natural rhythms. To function optimally, the body needs regular mini breaks throughout the day to reset and restore energy.
Calming the mind, particularly during the midst of a busy day, can reduce stress and anxiety. Withdrawing from sensory distractions also enhances concentration, allowing one to focus more effectively on tasks at hand. Ultimately, looking within and honouring your body’s natural cycle of focus and rest serves higher productivity.
Paired with our Nourishing Greens Blend, Pratyahara offers a nurturing break from the busyness of life.

Inner Strength
Replenish Your Core
Inner Strength pairs beautifully with Tadasana, or Mountain Pose - a foundational yogic pose of stability and alignment.
The practice of Tadasana supports a grounding connection with the Earth, via the soles of the feet, helping the body synchronise with Earth’s natural energy frequencies.
Posturally, this practice encourages proper alignment of the spine, as well as strengthening the stabilising muscles in the legs, core and back. It also promotes balance and increases awareness of the body, a useful tool when practising mindfulness and meditation.
Connect to the energy of the earth, renew your energy stores and allow your cells to build, strengthen and repair with our Grounding Protein Blend.

Breath of Life
Find Your Rhythm
Breath of Life is synonymous with Pranayama - the yogic practice of managing and controlling your breath.
Breathing is an automatic process, often performed mindlessly. Yet it is essential to life and pivotal to a healthy stress response. Habitual shallow breathing can increase anxiety, as well as diminish immune system function.
Learning how to consciously breathe is fundamental to optimal health. Rhythmic breathing reduces stress, enhances mental clarity, eases the mind, supports digestion, and promotes restfulness and peaceful sleep.
Pranayama is the practice of bringing attention to the breath, observing the flow of oxygen in and out of the lungs.
Paired with our Gut Health Tea Blend, this evening ritual invites one to tune in to the vibration of the breath, helping to regulate and calm the nervous system, promoting the body’s natural ability to ‘rest and digest’.
