1. Poem I re-read this week…
There is a poem that I had, and read regularly, since high school. It’s titled, Man in the Glass, by Peter Dale Wimbrow, Sr. Reading it last weekend prompted the topic for this week’s blog, titled Who Should You Be Trying to Impress? You can read the blog by clicking here. And read the poem below…
2. Wellness tip…
Water should be your primary drink of choice. And you need to be getting enough of it. I was talking with one of our massage therapists, Holly, last week, and she was saying that when her clients increase their water intake, she can notice a difference in the feel of their muscles and joints. A simple goal to shoot for would be to drink half of your body weight in ounces. (I weigh 170 lbs. Half of 170 is 85. So, for me, it would be about 85 ounces daily.) If you don’t love water, try adding lemon or lime. The bottom line is that we are designed to drink water. It’s so important to get enough. And it might be the simplest way to boost your health. Commit to drinking more water! What water do I drink? I do drink bottled spring water, but see the water system that I use below.
3. Product I love…
We ALL want the cleanest and purest water. We know that tap water is not the best, so most of us invest in water filters, water coolers, purified water, spring water, etc. While there is A LOT of information and opinions out there on what water is the best, and I have tried just about everything that’s out there, I believe what we use in our house right now is the best. It is called the AquaTru Reverse Osmosis Water System. It is a simple-to-use, not-too-bulky, countertop unit. I do have a hydrogen water unit that we also use regularly (I’ll share more about that in a future Friday’s Findings), but this is the water we use most. The guy who invented it is Robert Slovak, a guy who I believe knows more about water than anyone. (You can hear him on this podcast with Ben Greenfield if interested in all the different types of water… https://bengreenfieldfitness.com/podcast/nutrition-podcasts/deuterium-depleted-water/).
