So, one of the major things people ask me since I started doing my whole natural living, and getting back to nature thing is, did you give up coffee? No. I can assure you right now, if I ever had to give up coffee my head might explode. However, I did change how I drink coffee.
I don't add sugar and cream anymore, I don't buy French Vanilla flavored things to overload my coffee, and since I live in an area with no "gourmet," coffee, I don't get a fancy type coffee more than once a month. Basically, I drink my coffee black. Now, for some of you I know you just said, "Oh, I can't do that. I hate the taste of black coffee." I have two things to say to that; One, you don't really like coffee then, you like the super sugary packaging Starbucks and other companies of the like put on coffee. Two, coffee is an acquired taste. No one just woke up one morning and said, "I will ground these beans and this will be delicious." Most times, we start drinking coffee because our parents do, so it is sort of a learned thing. I know I didn't really like coffee when I first started drinking it. I just wanted to be just like my dad. If you drink it every day, you will grow to love the taste.
The other thing is, I started drinking more tea. Green tea, Black Tea, Herbal Tea, it doesn't matter. Find a flavor you like and drink at least two cups a day with a little honey and a sprinkle of cinnamon. It is so good for you, and so natural. There is also a little caffeine in green and black tea so if that is what you worry about, problem solved. :-D
