Just Add Water

Just Add Water

 

Psychologists often advise clients who want to make major life changes to start by adding, rather than subtracting.

It’s far easier to begin a healthy new food and fitness regime by adding something positive and simple to do in small, incremental steps rather than focusing on what you’re taking away.

One of the core components is adding the element of fresh, clean and abundant water to your daily diet.

That one simple direction–drink more water every day–can jumpstart you and move you on to the path of a healthier, leaner body right now.
If you increase your water intake by just 6 glasses a day, you will automatically feel better, eat less and flush more toxins from your system.

Have you noticed that after a massage or spa therapy appointment you are always asked to “drink a lot of water”? That’s because water will help move lactic acid and other toxins from your muscles and help clean and restore your entire system.

You can make water healthier and tastier by drinking it from glass rather than recycled plastics which can leach phyto-estrogens into your system (this means plastic water bottles rather than stable plastic like cups and thermos containers).

Add ice if it you like your water cold and put it in a large 6-ounce glass with a lemon or lime twist.

Seltzer without additives is okay, but watch for artificial additives or flavors that may contain sugar or aspertame–not the same as pure, plain water.

In just a week, you’ll notice a brighter, clearer complexion and you will also most likely feel less hunger for snacks and heavy meals.

Even if you’re not yet ready to make a total fitness resolution,  JUST ADDING WATER may help you eat less and feel and look better before you know it.
