Last night I had a minor headache, and I was trying to sleep.  I took a Motrin, and it got a little better for about 5 minutes, but not completely gone, and I knew it took 10 minutes to kick in, so I thought it was a little odd.  I decided I would wait for it.  15 minutes, and still I had a headache.  I decided that I had to sleep, so I took a Melatonin to get over it and try to go to bed, and strangely, it got better again, but only for 5 minutes.  I thought it was strange.  And then, I thought…

“what am I doing every time I want to take these pills?”

And like that, I realized, I needed Water!  I went to the sink, picked up a glass, and as I drank the water, my headache disappeared!  At first I thought it was all resolved, but when I stopped drinking, my headache immediately came back, just *snap*, like that.  I picked up the glass and refilled it, and the same thing, it went away as long as I was drinking water.  I drank until I couldn’t drink any more, and I felt great for 5 minutes, and in 10, my headache went away.

I think that, more than you know, your body gives signals you may not even realize you are receiving to tell you the right thing to do, and what you need.  From now on, I will be much more wary of what my body tells me.

That being stated, please enjoy my blog.
