10 tips to learn to drink more water

1. Wake and Drank

Wake and Drink a cup of warm/hot lemon water first thing in the morning. Get a bag of lemons at the store and pick up one of those instant hot water kettles or if you have more time just use the regular method to boil water.  If you are busy like me you can find them from $20-$120. Here is one from target thats similar to what I have.

A Yoga challenge for personal accountability  I've been waiting for a challenge that I know I can commit to. Handstands don't make you a yogi but they are definitely an instant mood booster.

2 Huge Reasons To Avoid Jumping Into College

2 Huge Reasons To Avoid Jumping Into College

What if we all showed up to everything as if it were the most important thing in our life?

Imagine what we could receive from that. Imagine how life would unfold.

Ive noticed something at school over the last few weeks that is mildly terrifying. There is a cognitive dissonance in the eyes of most of the students. The future generations of our planet. It is disheartening in a lot of ways to see…

I am creating balance in my life. So, I struck up conversation with a stranger at a cafe that I frequent. Normally, I wear headphones and keep to myself. Just Enjoying the energy of people hustling around from here to there that are grabbing their daily coffee. This time the stranger and I ended up chatting for 3 hours about life, wisdom, love, philosphy and more. When you open up to the world, you find the sweet essence of connection and duality. After we talked he gifted me all of these beauties. I collect gems and make adornments with some of them. All of these are incredible stones. Thank you universe! #feelinggrateful #gems #connected #balance #shivalingam #poppyjasper #hemitite (at influx cafe)

I love cracking my own nuts! This should be a year round tradition. Pecans are so radical. Buttery and packed with nutrients. It's a great way to get pure magnesium and manganese! #pecans #haveagreatholiday #celebratelife #foodhealing

#Repost from @spiritualthoughts I had a conversation about love with one of my dear friends yesterday, who is going through a rough time. I told him that the word "love" holds so many emotions and feelings. Just because you love someone doesn't mean you can be together intimately. Then I said "To me-Love is patience and desire. Love when your with someone completely is union. Love doesn't leave when bored, angry, or confused. Love is ugly sometimes, when you work hard at it." #osho you get me every time, right when I need an affirmation. #love #inlove #reallove Tag the person who brings out the love inside you❤️
