Hungry or Thirsty?
Are you constantly battling hunger pangs, even after you've eaten? It might not be your stomach calling, but your body crying out for hydration. Yes, you heard it right! Often, our bodies confuse thirst for hunger, leading us to consume unnecessary calories when all we really need is a refreshing glass of water. But let's face it, plain water can be a bit boring. That's where the magic of infused water comes in! Infusing water with fruits, herbs, and other natural flavors not only makes hydration delicious but also packs in a nutritional punch. Imagine sipping on a cool glass of strawberry and basil-infused water or a tangy citrus blend. Sounds refreshing, right? And the best part is, you can make these delicious concoctions right at home. Creating your own infused water combinations is a fun activity that the whole family can participate in. It's a great way to introduce your kids to the importance of hydration and healthy eating. Plus, these vibrant infusions are as beautiful to look at as they are tasty to drink. So, let's dive into the world of delicious hydration and explore how it can support your weight loss journey and overall health.

Want to boost your health, energy, brain functioning and your skin too? Well there is a very simple solution ~ drink water throughout your day. Yes! It's as simple as that! Drinking water doesn't mean always plain. Yes we hear and know that water is essential for our health but sometimes that can be challenging to remember or we find boring.
A great way to motivate hydrating is to pretty it up and adding some nutritious flavor too! Infused water also known as Spa water that is popular at many health resorts, is an easy and tasty way to stay hydrated, refreshed, alert and energetic. So why not make your own! Invite the kids and friends to help too. It's never too early to learn and implement healthy habits❤️
Do you know how much water is contained in your body? Our bodies are composed of 60%, blood is 90%, brain and heart are 73%, lungs 83%, skin is 64%, muscles and kidneys are 79%. Did you know that even your bones contain 31% water?
Looking at these percentages helps us to realize just how important water is for our health and how important it is to stay hydrated throughout the day. Even though we know we should drink our water it's easy to go about our daily activities and not give it much thought. Summer is an even more important time to stay hydrated especially as the weather heats up and temperatures rise.

About Me
My passion about health started in my teens when I first hand saw the effects of how illness can wreck havoc in a family growing up with parents who had serious health issues. I too struggled with losing weight & developed an eating disorder that I was able to heal by educating myself on healthier habits. It’s amazing what our bodies can do when we learn to take care of them like God intended. These experiences & challenges fueled my passion to be a life long student in pursuit of learning how to create healthier lifestyles where one can thrive at their optimal best. As a mother of 3 children & a wife of a traveling husband, I quickly learned how to implement healthy habits on the go so that I could be my healthy best for my family. This has evolved into my health coaching business Thriving With Health where I coach people to integrate simple & fun healthy 'bites’ throughout their day even on their most busiest & challenging ones. You are never too busy to take care of your health & I can show you how. Everyone has busy lifestyles and living at their optimum best is not only doable but can be fun as well!
