Why Should You Drink Water in the Morning?
Here is an easy to follow tip for you: drink water in the morning. The very first minute you wake up, before anything else, just drink a glass of water.
How is this beneficial?
While you sleep (6-9 hours), your body does not receive a single drop of water. As a result, it becomes slightly dehydrated. Therefore, by drinking a glass of water, you replenish your reserves. Some say that it also removes toxins, helps bowel movement, etc. Don’t really care about that. It just makes sense to do that. Water also helps your system to wake up faster, so, if you feel sleepy in the morning, just take a glass of water and you will soon realize, that such activity really helps. Hey, you may even notice some other improvements.
I mean, it can’t really be bad for you, right (unless you have some weird condition)? So, why not help your body to recover faster?

Simple, yet brilliant.

This book was purchased a couple of months ago, based on many positive reviews in Amazon, as well as a catchy title. I was expecting something completely different, to be fair. However, Eckhart Tolle has some very interesting points, that I would like to share.
What have I learned?
According to book, the secret of happiness and enlightenment is being present, or as the author says: being in the now. There is no other time than now. You do not live in the future or the past, you live in this moment.
If you ask any human being: – what time is now? They would say something in the lines of: 1:30 PM, etc.
However, what if you could ask a tree the very same question? Here is a possible response: – what do you mean? The time is now.
