Elizabeth recently sat down with Durana Elmi, the Co-Founder and COO of Cymbiotika, on the Live Purely podcast to discuss high-quality, science-backed supplements, whole-body wellness, and her non-negotiables. With a shared love for wellness, we had to find out what Durana's wellness routine is and what's in her current lineup.
PURELY ELIZABETH: What does your morning routine look like?
DURANA ELMI: Once I wake up I go outside and then focus on practicing gratitude and manifestation. Then I have my water and morning matcha, ice roll my face, wake up my daughters, take them to school and head into the office.
PURELY ELIZABETH: What is your current matcha order?
DURANA ELMI: Matcha on ice with Cymbiotika Magnesium L-threonate and Golden Mind as sweeteners.
PURELY ELIZABETH: What are three wellness products you couldn’t live without?
DURANA ELMI: The infrared sauna is one of my daily non-negotiables but I also love ice rolling my face and my PEMF desk chair mat.
PURELY ELIZABETH: How has your relationship with wellness and beauty shifted over the years?
DURANA ELMI: I used to want and expect immediate results. Now I’ve learned that results come with time and consistency. I also had an unlock when I realized that self love and confidence comes from within. It is an inside job. When I realized this, my whole world opened up. I have also learned that less is more for all things. And investing in good quality skincare products goes a long way.
PURELY ELIZABETH: In terms of beauty, wellness, and self-care, what advice would you give your younger self?
DURANA ELMI: Stay out of the sun, stay hydrated, get away from the people who don’t make me feel good and cherish those female friendships!
PURELY ELIZABETH: How do you incorporate wellness into your daily routine?
DURANA ELMI: Taking time for myself, being active for at least 30 min a day, protecting my energy and peace, and being selective with who I spend time with.
PURELY ELIZABETH: Any wellness secrets you can share with us?
DURANA ELMI: Consistency with whatever you do!!! And Cymbiotika supplements of course!
PURELY ELIZABETH: What Cymbiotika products are in your current lineup?
DURANA ELMI: I really love the magnesium and golden mind in my matcha in the morning, I take vitamin C throughout the day, and glutathione especially after eating out or having a glass of wine. I am also obsessed with our colostrum that is launching this month–it truly tastes like cake batter!
