4 science-backed habits to energize your day (before your first sip of coffee)
Hey, welcome to my newsletter!
You made it!
Ready to make health the hottest flex?
This week, I’ll be sharing simple (and intentional) ways to energize your mornings.
Here we go 👇️
1: Hydrate Before You Caffeinate
We all wake up dehydrated, but coffee first thing?
That’s a stress bomb.
Try this instead:
16–20 oz of filtered water
Squeeze of lemon for digestion and vitamin C
Electrolytes to replenish minerals and support real energy
Optional: Pink salt + coconut water with lemon for extra hydration
Coach Tee’s Tip: Skip the sugar, let your body wake up naturally.

2: Light Before Screens
Unless you’re a vampire, get some early morning sunlight.
Morning light signals your body to wake up and energize. It boosts dopamine, reduces melatonin, and balances your internal clock.
3: Move With Intention
Movement wakes your body up for real.
A short walk, stretch, or breathwork activates your nervous system, preps metabolism, and increases blood flow. Even 5 minutes is better than none.
4: Eat First, Then Coffee
Drinking coffee on an empty stomach spikes cortisol.
That means jitters now
Energy crash later
Eat protein + fats before coffee to keep your hormones happy and avoid crashes.
Why It Works:
Morning hydration with lemon + electrolytes fuels energy, kickstarts digestion, and supports metabolism, before coffee even touches your lips.
Bottom Line:
Fuel first. Coffee second.
Try this for a week and see the difference.
