We all need water. Our bodies are made up of 60-70% water. Water has an amazing ability to relax, cleanse, stimulate, lubricate, revive, balance, satiate, exercise, constrict, open, decongest, suspend and mix. Here are some ways to improve an already amazing essential compound for our bodies. Choose one of your favorite recipes below. Read Dr. Masaru Emoto’s book, The Hidden Messages in Water, while relaxing in your tub.
And don’t forget to drink plenty of water. Take your body weight and divide in half. Put that number into ounces. Drink that amount every day
The best water temperature is between 95 and 104 degrees. Too hot and it will be more drying for your skin. The ideal length of a bath is 20-30 minutes. Pat dry immediately.
