I love when simple things can have an impact on Being Well. Well, this one thing is about as simple as you can get! I’m talking about drinking lemon water every single day. Simple, right?!?
Drinking lemon water has great benefits for your health:
- The simplest reason is that it tastes good. Plain water (hopefully you are filtering as much as possible to get the chlorine, fluoride, etc. out) tastes kinda bland but a drop of Lemon Vitality Essential Oil or the juice of half a lemon will brighten that right up!
- Lemon juice or Lemon Vitality Essential Oil is great for adding a bit of Vitamin C to your daily regimen. Vitamin C is an antioxidant and promotes your own immunity. That is so important these days!
- Lemon water consumed every morning can help your digestion move smoothly. Some people even use it to keep from getting blocked up!
- I think the most important reason is just to get more water in every single day. If a little lemony flavor helps, then by all means drink away!
Here’s how I drink mine every morning:
- I use my tea kettle to add a few inches of hot water to my glass then add cold filtered water to the glass to cool the water to warm.
- I add 1-2 drops of Lemon Vitality Essential Oil (I try for one but I seem to always get 2).
- Drink it down!
Yep, that’s it! I do this every morning before I do anything else to make sure I don’t forget and to get the most benefits. I’d love to hear how the Lemon Water helps you.
BTW, I only use high-quality essential oils from Young Living since they have their Seed to Seal Promise (seedtoseal.com to learn more. To get started with these awesome oils, email me at susan@susanchilcoat.com or message me on FB.
