Did you know our water intake is connected to our mental health?
A large study of 3327 adults found that people who drink five cups or more of water per day were at a lower risk of depression and anxiety. In comparison, people who drink two cups or less doubles the risk!
Researchers have also found that when we drink lots of water, we may feel less calm, content and more stressed if we were to stop drinking as much water.
And another study showed that less than ideal emotions such as confusion, tension, anger or frustration were found to increase with dehydration. Fatigue is also more likely to be experienced.
Water intake is one of the first things I discuss with clients in my foundational work because our mind, body and soul is so incredibly connected!
