I do simple stretches, no poses or anything impressive, but I find that even the motion of touching my toes and stretching my hands above my head, actual movement, gets my heart rate going and actually wakes my body up. My muscles are most tight in the morning. However, I am extremely athletic and have a naturally muscular build. Even though I exercise and try different types of workouts, I am not going to paint myself as a fitness fanatic. (I am a habitual stretcher…I do so all day). Seriously this is my favorite part of my day! And not the only time I stretch either. Plus it’s yummy and has benefits that helps aid digestion and deflect inflammation! I enjoy this while checking emails, social media and sending my round of good morning, I love you text messages to boyfriend, friends and family.ġ0:30 Once I’m finished with breakfast, I stretch. I love the crunchy coconut flakes and cacao in the creamy yogurt. The Detoxifying Chicory Yogurt Bowl is perfect. I know how important breakfast is so I like options that are nourishing but aren’t a hassle or too heavy. I like my first meal to be light, as I am not hungry for the first few hours after waking up. It’s such a relaxing and beautiful moment in my morning.ġ0:00 Next I have breakfast, which I like in bed. I love that rose is an anti-inflammatory and Silica supports collagen production. I LOVE the smell of roses and rose water and this is like drinking a garden. My morning ritual is continued with yet another drop… I put 4 to 5 drops of Sakara Beauty Water Concentrate in a glass of water. My grandmamma recommended to me and grandma knows best! I love this stuff! Since using this I have noticed such an improvement to my level of energy. I then put a full dropper of Spring Valley B complex with B12 under my tongue. I brush my teeth and wash my face using a gentle cleanser Glossier Milky Jelly Cleanser is perfect for days before I have Laser treatments. I like room temp water and I always keep a large bottle on my bedside table. My perspective and passion from having worked in the fashion and beauty industries will hopefully inspire future readers and followers to eat well and live beautifully, stylishly and never without a smile!ĩ:30 First thing first is water. Super excited to have you take a peek inside my Sakara day-in-the Life, follow my social media and soon to launch blog because they truly reflect my love for beauty, food and fashion. I truly have a passion for beauty and skincare and I LOVE to eat! I love creating beautiful content that is vibrant, colorful and reflects my bubbly personality. It's also a great spot to meet young, fashionable people. My flexible schedule allows me to spend time writing and creating content for my blog (set to launch in March!). I love my job as it's super dynamic and allows me to express my sense of style. I work in the hospitality/food industry, managing a trendy restaurant on the LES. So much so, that my latest project is to start a blog focused on just that. Most of my experiences in NYC center around food, fashion, and beauty. I am a former model and Beauty Marketing professional, having worked for both L’oreal USA and Estee Lauder. Today, I consider myself to be a style, beauty and food enthusiast. My name is Alicia King and I am originally from Georgia but have lived in NYC for 10 years.
