105: The Power of Water

On today’s show, I talk about water and why I decided to drink spring water at home. Is some water more full of vitality and energy than others? Does drinking clean spring water positively impact all areas of life?  And is there a clue as to how what we say to ourselves changes the content of our body, which is 70-90% water. This episode is great for anyone who is interested in health, learning new strategies to have more energy and vitality or anyone who likes to think differently about the everyday things in their lives!

And this podcast is designed to share interviews and new ideas to help you redefine what could be possible for your life. Now, let’s go live Big E everybody. Welcome to the show. So today I wanted to talk to you a little bit about water, I get messages, sometimes on Instagram. That’s where I am most of the time. And I post things to my stories. And that’s when people direct messaged me and asked me questions. And that’s where I get the questions for a lot of the q&a episodes. But somebody asked me about my water maybe a month ago, and so I have been meaning to do something to explain to you about how I what I do with my water. So okay, let me explain. So I have a water delivery, I get water delivered to my house. So I live in outside Atlanta, Georgia. So my tap water is fine. It’s not sulfur water, it doesn’t taste funky or anything like that. But maybe a year ago, I saw a documentary on water, and it just changed the way I think about what I was putting in my body. Now, I generally have always drank a lot of water. But lots of times I would put flavorings in it, you know, like those little droplet things you can put in which I don’t think there’s anything necessarily wrong with that. But I was doing that a lot, because my tap water wasn’t especially like clean tasting like something about it was like a little off. And when I watched this documentary, I was like, Oh, you know what, maybe I’m just sensing that the water itself is a little off. So not the taste of the water, but the water itself. And I’m going to explain to you what I mean. So, you know, when we were cavemen or when we were just starting to settle, where did we settle, we put our towns right near water sources, right. But now we don’t have to do that, because we have plumbing and we can be in cities. And we can be far and far away from a water source. And we could just have the water piped to us. And come we just flip open the tap and the water comes out, right. And if you think about that, what is actually happening to the water. So the water is probably in like a closed circuit system for most cities. So the water comes out of your tap, you drink it, you go to the bathroom, it goes into the sewer system, it’s treated, it comes back through. And then you’re basically drinking it again, which that’s I’m not, there’s not an issue necessarily with that, although, as I say it that way, it sounds pretty gross. But it’s being treated like there’s, you know, no contaminants in it, but it’s coming back to you in that way. So it’s this closed loop system, which That in itself isn’t necessarily bad because all water is in a closed loop system. If you think about it, our Earth is got rivers and lakes and streams and all of that funnels into the ocean, which gets evaporated and goes into the sky. And then it comes down and it comes down as rain and refills and replenishes those lakes and streams. And we drink that. So it’s a closed loop system in a way anyway. So.
