Science Bit 🌿
Ever wonder why alcohol leaves you parched and foggy the next morning? It’s all about vasopressin a hormone your body relies on to retain water. Alcohol suppresses it, turning your kidneys into overachievers that flush out fluids faster than usual. Result? Headaches, dry mouth, and the not-so-charming scientific term: veisalgia (aka hangover).
Soul Reflection 🧘
Funny how that mirrors our emotional habits. We power through, pour ourselves into work or relationships, suppress the quiet signals of stress or sadness until we wake up emotionally dehydrated. Just like the body, the soul needs time and attention to replenish what it’s lost. Suppressing our internal “thirst” might make us appear strong, but it quietly drains us.
Closing Thought 🤔.
Next time you lift a glass, whether water or wine, ask yourself: What else am I thirsty for? Rest? Connection? Peace? The answers might just change how you refill.
