INSIGHT

Schadenfreude

  • Schadenfreude, a feeling of joy at others' misfortune, is a normal human reaction.
  • It arises from a temporary boost in self-esteem or a sense of victory at someone else's expense.
ADVICE

Hydration

  • Sip water throughout the day instead of gulping large amounts at once.
  • Your body absorbs water more effectively when it's introduced gradually, like a sponge.
ADVICE

Hydration through Food

  • Include water-filled vegetables with every meal to improve hydration.
  • You can count coffee towards hydration, but stop around 2 p.m. to avoid affecting sleep.
