Your body talks to you all the time. The problem is, most people don’t even realize that their body is sending messages. Even if we recognize some of the messages, most of us don’t know how to assess them. And even fewer of us have the extensive health vocabulary necessary to select the best response.
There may be many reasons for a headache. But here is what I have frequently found to be a simple and effective solution to a common problem:
Message: Headache.
Assessment: You are likely dehydrated. The cells in our brain contain 85% water and a lack of proper hydration may result in a headache. Don’t over analyze the symptoms and assume you have a chronic condition.
Action: Drink water. In fact, drink several glasses of water.
