🌿 Natural Focus:
Hydration needs vary by body size, climate, meds, and activity. A practical starting point is 2–3 liters per day for many adults, then adjust based on thirst, urine color (aim for pale straw), sweat rate, and your clinician’s guidance. Front-load fluids in the first half of the day, sip steadily (not chugging), and pair water with electrolytes if you sweat heavily. Remember: fiber-rich meals and protein increase water needs.

✅ Tip of the day: Set your personal daily target and pre-fill a bottle (or two) that equals that goal.

🙏 Spiritual Focus:
📖 “Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.” — Psalm 90:12
Plan your hydration with intention, as an act of wise stewardship.

🕊️ Prayer suggestion: “Lord, help me build simple, sustainable habits that honor You.”
