Start your day with lemon water

You should know by now that drinking water is good for you. But lemon water contains pectin, which is a type of fiber that helps you feel full longer. Fiber also helps with digestion, and helps clear those unwanted demons out of your system. If it's not clear what that means, it's poop.

Lemon water has more positive health benefits than you may realize. It’s good for your skin, it relieves indigestion, it helps prevent kidney stones, and is a smart way to add vitamin C and potassium to your diet. Plain water seems so boring now.

Buckle down and do a quick cleanup

OK, not ideal -- but 30 minutes of cleaning a month's worth of messiness might do you good. Physically, you can burn up to 266 calories in 30 minutes just by moving furniture around. Mentally, you'll feel better.

Cleaning can be a stress reliever, a sneaky exercise, and a money saver. That means vacuuming, washing dishes, Windexing your countertops, and kicking dirty clothes under your bed will all contribute to your overall well-being.
