A Gentle Awakening, One Layer at a Time
Some mornings donβt begin with noise, but with stillness.
A breath. A stretch. A spoon dipped into something soft, sweet, and full of light.
This Morning Bliss Parfait is not just breakfast β it is a moment of mindfulness. Layers of cool, creamy yogurt. Jewels of fresh berries. A golden sprinkle of granola. Each bite is a soft awakening β tart meets sweet, crunch meets cream. A morning ritual for the heart, body, and soul.
