You're basically a houseplant with complicated emotions!

​Well we’ve definitely made up for the lack of rain, we’d all gotten used to the dry weather, enjoying the dry spell, but the plants around us weren’t so happy. 
 
After the huge rainfall recently the flora and fauna are thriving, my roses are blooming and my herbal garden is flourishing.
 
There’s a saying “You’re basically a houseplant with complicated emotions!  Drink water and get sunlight”  It’s quite simple, we need water, sunlight air and good nutrition in order to thrive, be healthy and enjoy life.
 
So what are the rules when it comes to water?
  • Drink an average of 2L water per day (This can range between 2-4L per day, anything less or anything more is not as healthy)
  • Keep an eye on your urine – almost clear is perfect, dark is dehydrated, completely clear may be a sign you are drinking too much water (this can cause your body to flush out vital enzymes)
  • Exercising a lot or in a hot climate?  Increase your fluids
 
Simple health issues that can be improved by keeping hydrated
  • Constipation
  • Fluid retention
  • Headaches
  • Memory
  • Skin issues
  • Energy
  • Sleep issues
 
Simple ways to increase your water intake
  • 2L is roughly 8 glasses or 4 pints – drink a glass of water every 2 hours or a pint every 4 hours
  • Drink more herbal teas – (Black tea and coffee are not included)
  • Add fruit or mint to water to flavour
  • Fill a 2L jug in the morning and you’ll see by the end of the day if you have drunk enough
  • Drink between meals not with meals
 
Sometime the simplest things can give you the biggest results.
