Overnight, your body has been sleeping for 6-9 hours in a VERY dehydrated state. That\u2019s why our FIRST priority in the morning is ALWAYS to rehydrate with 32 ounces of pure water.<\/p>\n<p>Hydration is NECESSARY for:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"bullet-list 1\"><li style=\"background-image: url(\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/8.png);\">\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Optimal fat burning.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li><\/ul>\n<ul class=\"bullet-list 1\"><li style=\"background-image: url(\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/8.png);\">\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Clear thinking and brain function.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li><\/ul>\n<ul class=\"bullet-list 1\"><li style=\"background-image: url(\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/8.png);\">\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>High energy and stamina.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li><\/ul>\n<p>We need to make sure we nail this first step!<\/p>\n<p>Fill a 32-ounce water bottle or mason jar, and place it by your bedside at night. It will be waiting for you first thing in the morning, so you don't need to \u201cthink\u201d about it. Drink the entire 32 ounces when you wake up.<\/p>\n<p>You can add freshly squeezed lemon for a bit more zest and flavor, and <a href=\"https:\/\/health.clevelandclinic.org\/7-reasons-to-start-your-day-with-lemon-water-infographic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">according to the Cleveland Clinic<\/a>, drinking lemon water in the morning has other benefits:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Aids in digestion.<\/li>\n<li>It helps you stay hydrated.<\/li>\n<li>It is weight-loss friendly.<\/li>\n<li>Prevents oxidation.<\/li>\n<li>Supplies a healthy dose of vitamin C.<\/li>\n<li>Provides a potassium boost.<\/li>\n<li>It helps prevent kidney stones.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Does your tap water suck?

Arteries carry fresh, oxygenated blood from your heart to your muscles, organs, and tissues. Veins carry the \u201cused-up\u201d blood from your tissues to your heart and lungs to get re-oxygenated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>But did you know you have a third kind of vessel that completely dictates why you feel stiff and sluggish in the morning?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These vessels are called lymphatic vessels.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><div class=\"su-note border-color border-style\"  style=\"border-color:#e1deb3;\"><div class=\"su-note-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\" style=\"background-color:#fbf8cd;border-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;\"> <strong>Click This:<\/strong> Check out this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=EEP0PYEWcwU&ab_channel=JohnThomas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">video on the lymphatic system<\/a> if you like nerding out on the &#8220;sciency&#8221; stuff.<\/div><\/div><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Your body\u2019s lymphatic vessels have two key functions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Function 1: Lymphatic vessels regulate the fluid between your veins and tissues.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ever had a swollen ankle? Or a bruised muscle? During swelling, your lymph vessels were not properly regulating the amount of fluid leaking into your tissues.<\/p>\n<p>See, lymph vessels normally &#8220;vacuum&#8221; up excess fluid. But sometimes, things go haywire (like when we get injured), and we get swelling.<\/p>\n<p>Since we don\u2019t move at night, the fluid in our lymphatic system gets stagnant. The lymph is not properly flowing, and as a result, we feel stiff in the morning!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Function 2: Lymphatic vessels carry many immune cells throughout your body to fight infections, cancer, and viruses.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When lymph flow is stagnant (after sleeping and not moving for a long time), your body feels stiff and stagnant, and your immune system is depressed. Needless to say, this is not good!<\/p>\n<p>So, for your morning ritual, you must get your lymph flowing immediately when you get up because your body has been stagnant throughout sleep.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The beautiful part? You only need five minutes to do it!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Just a bit of motion (and bouncing around in particular) is all we need to get those lymph vessels pumping like they should in the morning. It turns out that lymph vessels respond very well to bouncing up and down (this is one of the reasons why trampolines and \u201crebounders\u201d are great exercise tools for health).<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><div class=\"su-note border-color border-style\"  style=\"border-color:#e1deb3;\"><div class=\"su-note-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\" style=\"background-color:#fbf8cd;border-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;\"> <strong>Click This:<\/strong> Here's a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=5Rx8uTKos_0&ab_channel=MorganWebert\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">short video of a morning lymph-moving routine<\/a>.<\/div><\/div><\/span><\/p>\n<p>When you try this routine for the first time, you will probably feel like a total goofball bouncing around.
