Her morning routine (which includes lots of H2O):
“[Conscious deep breathing]. 3 breaths in, hold, then out. I drink 500ml of room temperature water. Smile.
I then drink 500ml of water and lemon juice, get dressed, wake up my boys for school and make a healthy breakfast. I mix another 500ml of water and ice or coconut water with my Super Elixir Alkalising Greens and take it with me when I take the boys to school.”
How she stays fit with moderation:
“I love sports. I don’t believe in fad diets or excessive exercise plans. I keep it simple, so it’s easier to stick to. 45 minutes of sports a day; 45 minutes of quiet time a day.
I love swimming, paddle boarding, running, skiing (snow or water), surfing, hiking, spinning… I try lots of new things. I did a hip-hop class the other day—I was so out of rhythm but I laughed a lot.”

On staying healthy while on the road:
“The Super Elixir travel packs are great for jet lag, and The Nourishing Protein travel packs for clean, plant-based nourishment. Easy and efficient. I maintain my meditation program and drink 3 liters of water a day. I also take time to explore and enjoy where I am; take photographs, record, write, observe, appreciate.”
