Welcome to Day 12 of my Healthy Living 30 Day Challenge, created to support my Yoganudge Facebook group.

If you’re a member of my Facebook group, I hope you downloaded my self-study tutorial 21 Days of Yoga (which is free for my FB group members) and have started a regular yoga practice in the comfort of your own home.

Today’s post is Part 3 of a 5 part series of posts designed to help you recharge your body, mind, and spirit, with a tip for Day 12 of the Healthy Living 30 Day Challenge.

At the end of each of these 5 posts, you’ll see an offer for a free printable workbook that goes with these posts.

This workbook can be used as a journal to reflect on the information in each of these posts.

If you haven’t gotten this workbook yet, I hope you’ll download it now (below) and use it to get into a new groove.

Today’s healthy tip is a reminder of the tip offered for Day 5 of this challenge. It’s simple. Today’s tip is:

Drink more water.

And, if you're trying to lose weight, stop drinking calories.

Instead, replace sugary sodas, fruit juices, wine and other alcoholic drinks with water. Save your calories for more healthy foods you can enjoy.

Why should you drink more water?

4 Refreshing Drinks to Rehydrate Your Body and Boost Your Brainpower

Do you feel fatigued while you’re working?

Do you frequently experience headaches or dizziness while you’re building your business?

Do you find yourself feeling like your brain is in a haze as you struggle to think clearly?

These symptoms might sound scary at first.

But they’re often caused by a simple medical condition known as dehydration.

Dehydration happens when your body doesn’t have enough fluid.

As a result, you may feel tired and achy.

You can experience dry mouth, headaches, and even dizziness as a result of your dehydration.

The good news is that it’s easy to fix dehydration.

You just need to drink a few glasses of liquid.

Water is the best choice to rehydrate your system.

Other beverages like coffee and soda contain caffeine, which can further dehydrate you.

That’s why you should opt for water if at all possible.

But what if you hate the taste of water?

While some people believe water has no taste, others insist that it does have a boring flavor.

If that describes you, then try one of these healthy options to mask the flavor of your water.

You’ll still get the health benefits of drinking but without the taste you dislike.

Water and Lime

Lime is a great way to add flavor to your water.

This mild citrus fruit is filled with Vitamin C and cancer fighting flavonoids.

If you’re really craving a sweet taste, consider adding one teaspoon of raw honey to your lime water.

Cucumber and Apple Water

Combining cucumber and apple will give your water a sweet, refreshing taste.

Cucumbers are an excellent source of several B vitamins while apples are known to fight diseases like Type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer’s disease.

Green Tea

If you’re still not a fan of water after trying to natural flavors provided by nature, then opt for green tea.

Not only can green tea help rehydrate your body, scientists believe that it helps the body burn fat naturally.

Fresh Mint Tea

Like green tea, peppermint tea also boasts many health benefits. It can be useful in preventing nausea and reducing painful stomach cramps.

Another advantage of drinking peppermint tea is that it’s a natural anti-inflammatory.

If you have an autoimmune disease like arthritis, then it may be helpful to drink peppermint tea regularly.

When it comes to staying productive, your hydration level makes a huge difference.

If you’re poorly hydrated, you won’t feel as well and your work may suffer.

But drinking more water and tea throughout the day will help prevent this.

As a result, you’ll feel energized and alert.

To Your Good Health,
