Adrienne Everett Shares Her AM & PM Routine

“Although I’m a yoga instructor, my non-negotiable in movement is dancing. It sets the tone for my day and keeps me energised. My go-to song is Champion by Keinemusik. Of course, I also integrate yoga into my routine, ensuring I practise sun salutations and gratitude during the day. I prefer Vinyasa flow because it’s the type of yoga that I’m trained in. The amount of time I spend on yoga varies every day, which is the beauty of my practice. Some days I can do a full hour and really pour everything into my practice and some days I just do a stretch before getting my day started. The time I spend on the mat can be anywhere between five minutes to an hour and a half. I really feel like you can do yoga anywhere, it’s not only a physical body movement but also a mental practice. My best advice for anyone short on time or new to yoga is to incorporate it into their day-to-day activities. For example, if you’re commuting in your car, seated while working, or anything else, give yourself a stretch. Let everything flow and let your practice grow.” 

“Nutrition-wise, I always prioritise balance. One non-negotiable is having an açaí smoothie from Feels everyday as my sweet, healthy treat (and sometimes a meal replacement). Feels is a healthy restaurant spot with several locations throughout the city and my favourite is the one by the beach. I like going there to socialise with my friends – the space is amazing, and they make everything look so pretty. I drink a lot of water and I also incorporate the Alo Superfood Multivitamins daily. When I have the time, I enjoy using my juicer to make my own homemade celery juice.”

“Morning and night-time routines are what ground me. I open my eyes with so much gratitude every morning. As soon as I’m up, I normally reach for my phone to open the Bible app which puts me in a spiritual mindset to positively set my intention for the day. I try now, in my entrepreneurship space, to take it easy. I don’t necessarily have a set time that I wake up every day. In terms of my morning skincare routine, I try not to wash my face with soap. If I wore a lot of make-up the previous night and I feel like I need a second cleanse in the morning then I will, but most days I will use a damp cloth to clean my face with only water. I’m all about my skincare and have more products than a cupboard can hold, because skincare regimens shift with emotions, the weather and your location. Right now, I’m keeping it simple. I use game-changing cleansing face towels from Bamteek (thanks to my good friend Nazly Firas), an organic carrot oil from Whole Foods and the Heliocare SPF 50 sunscreen every morning.”
