The ‘Glass of Water in the Morning Challenge’ is a simple yet powerful daily habit. As soon as you wake up, drink 8 to 16 ounces of water before eating, drinking coffee, or starting your morning routine.
People take on this challenge because it’s an easy, zero-cost action that can have noticeable benefits in just a few days. It requires no special equipment, no extra time, and no drastic lifestyle changes which is appealing to anyone who wants a quick health boost without major effort.
When you wake up, your body is mildly dehydrated after several hours without water. Drinking a glass before you do anything else helps rehydrate your cells, reduce puffiness, and boosts energy levels. This hydration supports your digestion, improves nutrient absorption, and can even help regulate (curb) your appetite throughout the day.
How you ask? Hydration helps reduce unnecessary snacking and cravings. For many, this small act becomes a keystone habit that leads to other healthy choices.
On a deeper level, starting your day with water can improve mental clarity and focus. The brain is about 75% water, and even mild dehydration can cause fatigue, brain fog, or headaches. By hydrating immediately, you give your brain the fuel it needs to function optimally from the moment you start your day.
Over time, this daily ritual can lead to improved energy levels and a greater awareness of your overall hydration throughout the day.
Drinking water in the morning and hypnosis might seem unrelated, but they actually share a fascinating similarity: both are small, intentional acts that can create a powerful ripple effect for your mind and body.
When you drink water first thing in the morning, you jump-start your brain and clear away what’s no longer needed. Hypnosis works in a similar way for your mind.
Hypnosis clears mental clutter, rehydrates your thinking with fresh, positive suggestions, and primes your subconscious for the day ahead.
Both water and hypnosis work best when done consistently. A single glass of water helps in the moment, but the real benefits come when it becomes part of your routine.
Likewise, one hypnosis session can bring relief or clarity, but repeated practice builds deep, lasting changes in habits, emotions, and mindset.
Whether you’re hydrating your body with water or hydrating your mind with hypnosis, you are giving yourself a clean, refreshed foundation to thrive.
Hydrate Your Body, Hypnotize Your Mind
Drinking water in the morning is like giving your body a fresh start. You wash away the night and start freshly hydrated.
Hypnosis does the same thing for your mind. You can rinse out old thoughts, refresh your focus, and fill up on new possibilities.
If you accept the Glass of Water in the Morning Challenge, tomorrow morning you will grab a glass of water for your body, and schedule a hypnosis session for your mind. That’s hydration on every level.
I’m ready when you are ready.
