I’m no scientist, but I’m pretty sure water can be considered medicine. There are tons of benefits of drinking water -- but let’s get real -- how many glasses do you drink a day? Hopefully when you read about how amazing your body will feel after being hydrated properly, you will want to fill up a glass right after you read this. Here are 13 awesome ways water makes you healthier. Stay hydrated!

1. Clears acne

Water flushes out the toxins from your skin and gives you a glow; I’ll take it.

2. Relieves bloating

Bloating happens, but drinking water will help to relieve it.

3. Aids in digestion

You digest food better when you have a glass of water with your meals.

4. Getting over a cold

If you’re sick, the absolute best thing to do is stay hydrated.

5. Are you really hungry?

Sometimes our bodies make us think we are hungry when our brain is really trying to tell us we need water.

6. Have a better workout

When you are in the gym working up a sweat, water is the greatest for replacing what you sweat out.

7. Helps sore muscles

Even after exercising, keep drinking water to prevent your muscles from tightening up and feeling sore.

8. Stops bad breath

A major reason why bad breath is a thing is because our mouths are dry. Drink up!

9. Avoid headaches

Dehydration plays a big role in why you get those pounding headaches.

10. Boosts your energy

Instead of grabbing a coffee when you need a pick-me-up, just drink some water and you should feel energized.

11. Heals dry skin

When lotion isn’t cutting it for your dry skin, water will rehydrate your skin.

12. Helps after drinking

After a long night, your body needs water to soothe your hangover and help those kidneys.

13. Your insides will thank you.

Our bodies are made of about 60% water; we thrive when we’re hydrated.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
