The Importance of Hydration
Our bodies are mostly water, so it’s no surprise that nearly every function—from cognitive clarity to digestion—relies on staying hydrated. When we’re hydrated, we feel more alert, our skin looks healthier, and our digestion flows more smoothly. Even mild dehydration can disrupt this balance, leading to fatigue, headaches, and dull skin.
How Much Water Do We Really Need?
Hydration needs can vary from person to person, but a good rule of thumb is about 2-3 liters a day, especially in warmer months or after physical activity. Listening to your body is key—if you’re feeling thirsty, tired, or noticing dry skin, these can all be cues to increase your intake.
By adding hydrating herbal teas to your day, you’re able to meet your hydration needs in a way that feels nourishing and restorative.
Signs You May Need More Hydration
Listening to your body is essential when it comes to hydration. If you’re noticing signs like dry skin, headaches, or low energy, it could be a nudge to increase your fluid intake. Sipping herbal teas throughout the day can be a gentle and enjoyable way to keep your hydration in balance.
Simple Rituals to Stay Hydrated
Creating hydration rituals throughout the day can be a simple yet effective way to care for yourself. Here are a few ideas for weaving hydration into your daily routine:
- Morning Hydration: Start your day with a glass of warm water or herbal tea, like a gentle infusion of chamomile, to begin the day feeling grounded.
- Infusions: Dont like the taste of water? Try iced tea infusions. A few slices of citrus or fresh mint in a blend like our Hibiscus Lemon Myrtle adds a burst of flavour that’s naturally hydrating.
- Iced Tea on the Go: Our iced tea bottle makes it easy to take hydration with you, wherever you go. Simply add your favourite blend, fill with water, and let it steep for a refreshing, slow-brewed tea.
