Okay now this does not exactly have a whole lot to do with meditation itself, but the effects from just adding some lime juice to the water comes with a range of benefits. It is the first thing I do when i get up in the morning. Mix myself this healthy & delicious drink.
1. It tastes great
Yeah, this is critical. Many people, myself included, don't drink enough water. Thus adding some freshness to the boring taste of water can definitely help reaching that 3 Liter goal. Just add the juice of a half lime to a liter of water, and you are good to go.
2. Vitamin C booster
We don't need those pricey supplements if we can get our minerals from natural sources. Lime is high in Vitamin C. They also contain a lot of Vitamin Bs as well as minerals. Vitamin C boosts the immune system and prevents colds.
3. Helps digestion
Digesting food is a major stress for our body, especially with the majority of foods being processed and manipulated. So our gut needs all the help it can get. The acidic component of the lime stimulates the absorption of good nutrients, and is therefore extremely beneficial if you are trying to achieve weight goals.
4. Improves skin
Acne prone skin can take more to cure than just some lime water, but it definitely helps in achieving that. It moisturizes the skin evenly and gives the skin an uniform look through collagen production.
5. Energy booster
Scrap energy drinks and coffee, the new energy booster is lime water! Drinking it on empty stomach in the morning produces the most notable effect. Start the day with laser sharp focus and without a caffeine crash!
I drink a big glass of lime water every morning since about 3 months, and i wouldn't go back to coffee for a hundred bucks! This is most certainly THE most beneficial addition to any diet.
Try it out if you like to, and share your results :)
This is part of the 30 days writing challenge by . I combined this with a mindfulness challenge. My goal with this is to improve writing & english skills as well as becoming more self aware.
