Drink More Water

Welcome back to Night Shift with Justin S. King, how to transform your life one night at a time.

All these episodes I do are about things that I want to refocus on myself and though tonight's

episode is on drinking water and does drinking water more water help you sleep.

What sign says that drinking water can help you sleep but it can also wreck it for some particular

reasons. Being hydrated during the day supports your body overall and you may feel better,

think more clearly, avoid some of the fatigue that comes from being slightly dehydrated and drinking

other liquids. There's a line though once your hydration starts spilling into the evening,

especially night, right time before bed. I can start working against you. This I found when I was

trying to do the, I ran into this problem often when I was doing 75 hard, not too long ago,

and you have to drink a full gallon of water. If you don't get the gallon done earlier enough

in the day, you may find yourself waking up at night. The question isn't just how much water

you drink but when you drink it. So if you are drinking a gallon of water spread across the day

and you're active sweating, it's a hot climate and you just want that amount of ounces,

you should be fine. But if you're finishing it late at night, you'll find yourself waking up.

So the solution found is I got a gallon drinking jug that had times on it and I set out to finish

the majority of the gallon by noon. And you can work with your own self if you're working,

if you're drinking a lot of water, planning on when you finish it. But if you're not doing a

challenge like the 75 hard where you not particularly need a gallon of water for some checklist item,

figure out how much water you want to drink ideally to stay hydrated and finish that earlier

in the day. So tonight's shift is simple. More water, drink water first thing in the morning

before you drink any other drink drink a large glass of water before you drink an energy drink

or coffee and wait a while before you add one of those into your routine if you're going to drink

a caffeinated beverage. So that's it for tonight. My name is Justin S. King. I help entrepreneurs

find peace tonight tomorrow and for the rest of their lives through sleep optimization,

motion modulation and discovering the purpose. Good night.
