Hey, what's going on, everybody.

Welcome back to the Elemental Evan show.

Thank you all so much for joining me today on this wellness Wednesday for

a full length episode today, I'm going to be covering the element water.

Uh, if you did not already hear the last episode, uh, last Wednesday's episode, it

was on the element of earth and the reason I'm covering the elements once again.

Is simply because I wanted to reconnect to, you know, what this show is all

about and why I find the elements to be so important and truly the key to better

health, because through connection to the elements, which are literally fully

encompassing our, you know, all aspects of our health from spiritual, mental, to

physical health, uh, and emotional health.

Through connecting to these elements, we can improve all of those.

And so that's really, you know, what I'm all about is reconnecting to

these elements, paying respect to them and respecting ourselves because

we are of the elements as well.

They are essential to our, to life and to our wellbeing.

And so that's really what I'm trying to cover here is why these

elements are so important and today is going to be on the water element.

is extremely important.

That's why it's an essential, uh, element, but there's a lot

of reasons why it's important.

And to really just start off, obviously the earth is covered in a majority water.

There's a ton of water on this planet and our bodies are, you know, kind

of like a micro form of the planet in which we also have a really large

amount of water actually, anywhere.

55% to 70% of your body is composed of water.

That is depending on your age and your sex, uh, that will determine how

much water is actually in your body.

Now the water element, unlike the earth element.

Now all of these pretty much work together and cohesively to make up life.

But you know, when you look at the earth element, you think of

structure, you think of stability.

So all the vitamins and minerals are what kind of build our body.

But the water is what carries these minerals and vitamins to the

different parts of our body, right?

So it's the rivers that run through our body are like, you know, our, our

veins and our, our lymphatic system.

uh, a very, very important thing, a very important element to focus

on and to really connect with.

So when we think of the water element, we can think of, you know, the

different things that it represents such as life flow, change, and healing.

Right?

These are all things that we can attribute to the element of water.

and something I've heard many times from different health professionals and

actually even through some teachers of tea ceremonies is that if you really

want to start improving your health, one of the first places you need to start

is with the water that you're drinking.

I know that might sound kind of weird.

Uh, you know, I mean, like you might think, well, I'm, I'm drinking enough

water obviously, and, and that should be sufficient, but realistically the

quality of your water matters so, so much.

So unfortunately, You know, a lot of people are drinking water that is not

really in my opinion, fit for consumption.

Uh, and that is tap water.

So tap water, obviously you can drink tap water, and it's

not going to like kill you.

At least not immediately, you know, here in the us, but

it's definitely contaminated.

Well, I like to say contaminated, obviously a lot of it is added in

stuff, um, for our quote unquote health, but nonetheless tap

water has a lot of things in it.

Like chlorine, fluoride, trace amounts of pharmaceuticals, ammonia, and

chloramines, among many other things.

and when you're drinking this, you know, your body is just absorbing and having

to process all this stuff out constantly.

If that's the only kind of water you're drinking.

Okay.

A lot of us are not drinking really high quality water.

So if you do not already have a filter for your water at your house, then

just understand if you are not using a filter, your body becomes the filter.

So having a filter is absolutely necessary.

We do not need to be consuming all of these random things that are in our

water, you know, from the lead pipes that we have that are leeching all these

heavy metals and toxins into our water.

And like I said, all these trace pharmaceuticals because yes, when

they, the water, um, like sewage goes into a plant and is processed,

there are still trace amounts of pharmaceuticals that people are taking

and then obviously ping into water.

And then that water is.

Purified, um, and then resent to us to consume.

So definitely getting a water filter is going to be key here.

I actually use a reverse osmosis system.

It's the AquaTru system.

I really enjoy it because it's a small, compact, uh, reverse osmosis system.

That's really friendly in price compared to any of.

The other reverse osmosis systems and you are going to get water

that both tastes really, really good and is really well filtered.

Okay.

So a reverse osmosis system literally gets water almost back

to, you know, purely H two O.

Now you actually are not supposed to be drinking pure H two O

like purely purified water.

Right?

So if you go to a store and you buy purified water, that's great.

And all, but you actually shouldn't consume it like that.

You need to restructure your water is what it's called.

So restructuring your water is adding minerals to the water.

So water naturally wants to bind to other.

Uh, other things that's naturally going.

If you were to go into the, uh, the wilderness right now and, you know, dip a,

a cup into a stream of water, that water would not be in a pure H two oh form.

It's gonna be water with blank.

You know, it's a bunch of different minerals, right?

It's, it's naturally gonna bind with them and it's gonna carry them.

So when you were drinking water, they actually say, if you drink purified

water, It can actually strip the body of minerals because it naturally

wants to bind to these minerals.

So it can actually pull minerals out from your body and make you more

dehydrated and just overall, not very good for you to consume like that.

So I always restructure my reverse osmosis water.

There's a bunch of different.

Um, you know, ways that you can do it, uh, a very simple way is that they have

these minerals that are in liquid form and you can just drop 'em in there.

Or you could take really, really high sea salt, high quality, sea salt, and

just add a little pinch to your water and naturally high, uh, high quality sea

salt, or, you know, pink Kimaya and salt.

Those are gonna have tons of trace minerals in them, and they're

gonna help restructure your water.

So that's extremely important.

Also a really quick side note because I found this so interesting is just that.

It is well known that if you own a pet frog, you are not supposed to put that

frog in tap water, because it will probably kill it or cause a lot of

organ failures or issues with the frog because a frog's skin is so absorbent

that when whatever water it is in will.

Absorbed through the skin and then sent to all of, you know, its organs and stuff.

And since our tap water has all of these weird things like chlorine

and fluoride, and, you know, these trace pharmaceuticals, all that,

it will actually kill the frog.

So if that's what it's doing to a frog, which by the way, if you do

have a pet frog, purified water, um, uh, is going to be the kind of

water that you would want to use.

And you can go ahead and research this as simple search

on Google will show you this.

But nonetheless, if that is what it's doing to a frog, imagine over

time, what it's gonna do to your.

So, I guess getting a filter so that you don't become, the

filter is going to be key here.

Now let's go ahead and cover a few different ways in which we can

reconnect or simply just connect further to the water element.

So, first I always start off with just staying properly hydrated.

It's that simple, right?

We need water just like, uh, with the earth element.

You need food, you need those minerals and vitamin.

But with water, you need water, right?

A hundred percent.

You can go longer without food than you can go without water.

So it's very, very necessary that we stay hydrated, especially if we want

to be performing at our top level, which is what it's all about, right.

We want to be at our healthiest state possible.

So there's a few ways you can make sure that you are staying hydrated.

There is one way that is a good general.

Um, a general way in which you can see how hydrated you are,

but I actually have a different method, which I'll explain later.

But if you want to just make it really simple, you can take your

body weight, divide it in half.

So let's just say you weigh a hun, uh, 200 pounds.

Uh, you would have to drink 100 ounces of water.

So you take your body weight divided in half, and then make that into ounce.

Uh, so like I said, 200 pound person cut in half, 100 pounds,

uh, and then just turn it down.

So, so a hundred ounces of water is what that person should consume in a day.

I actually don't really like that method because it is kind of just

setting you, you in a box and it's kind of taking into account that, you

know, you're living each day, the.

Which obviously you're not, there are days where you are way more active and there's

days where you are not active at all.

Right.

And so you shouldn't be drinking the same level of water on each of

those days saying properly hydrated.

Yes.

Is very important, but.

If you are extremely active, one day, you might need to drink even

a little bit more water than is recommended through that method.

I just showed you, you might, if you're 200 pounds, you might have to

drink 120 ounces of water, you know, just depending on how thirsty you

are and, and how much you're working and, and using up water in your body.

Right.

But then there's days where maybe you work a desk job, and you're simply sitting at a

computer, not doing any physical exercise.

You're probably not gonna need to drink a hundred ounces of water.

That's a ton of water.

That's almost a gallon of water, right?

So you really don't need to drink that much water.

What I like to do is I like to actually, well, I don't like to

do this, but I like to look at my urine and see the color of it.

So a very simple way to gauge this is if you're urine is coming out, super

dark colored, then you are dehydrated.

You need to drink more water.

If you are going pee and it is looking like you're peeing out

water, you are way too hydrated.

And the water is just running through you.

Not a good thing.

So.

You wanna find that happy medium, you want to find a light yellow color to your pee.

And that is exactly where you want to hang out at.

Uh, so it's really about listening to the body and going with what feels

right in terms of drinking water.

But that is definitely the best way to connect to the water

element is to stay hydrated.

It's gonna keep you more focused.

It's gonna keep you, uh, more awake throughout the day, and it's going

to, uh, there there's been studies on this actually, where they see that.

Cognitive abilities and ability to focus is actually increased by consuming

water and staying pop properly hydrated, which also by the way, make sure that

the first thing you do in the morning, um, in terms of consuming something is

consuming a glass of water, at least a 12 ounce glass of water, if not, even more

to replenish the body and to wake up all the organs and kind of get everything

moving, you have to think about it.

You were, uh, essentially you.

Laying down for eight hours, not consuming anything and, uh, specifically water.

Uh, so you should definitely go ahead and rehydrate at that time.

Now, the next thing I'm going to cover might sound a little weird at first,

but it is very, very important and there is, uh, actually an experiment that

you can do to see that this is true.

So.

You should speak to your water and your food.

Now it can be in the form of just giving gratitude, maybe a prayer,

or you could, I mean, literally like speak to your water and your food.

And the reason I'm saying this is because water carries information.

Okay.

So yes, if you are a fan of frozen, then you know, that that line is in

there and they were absolutely right.

They were dropping facts in there.

Water carries information.

It truly does.

there is an experiment, like I said, where you can actually take rice,

just normal rice, like go ahead and boil, uh, a pot of rice or put

some, some rice in a rice cooker.

So it's literally just water and rice.

So obviously water is the main component here.

Uh, along with the rice, it's like 50, 50, right?

and then you go ahead and you take three different jars.

You put rice in each one of those jars.

And then on one jar, you write the words.

I love you on one jar, you don't write anything.

And on another jar you write, I hate you.

Then you take those three jars.

You put 'em in three different rooms.

And each day you go to the jar that says, I love you on it.

And you actually say, I love you.

Then you go to the, uh, you don't go to the middle jar.

That's the neutral jar.

So you pay no attention and you don't say anything to it.

And then you go to the third jar and you say, I hate.

uh, to that jar.

If you watch that rice over time, the rice that says, I love you on it actually looks

in really good shape after like a week.

And then if you look at the middle jar, it might grow a little bit of

mold, you know, just kind of Soso.

And then if you look at the jar that says, I hate you, that

thing grows mold so quickly.

It's crazy.

Uh, and that is just showing that truly the intentions that we are putting

behind, you know, the water in every, and, and the food because food has

water in it as well is so important.

That's why I really believe in giving, uh, gratitude for your food.

When you, uh, before you consume it, really set a good intention there.

Uh, that's also why, you know, grandma's cooking is the best

cooking because they always put that love and intention in there.

Right.

so anyways, definitely go ahead and give that experiment a try,

or you could even try growing, um, two plants that are the same.

So like, let's say you get some cilantro or parsley or some Rosemary

or whatever kind of plant you want.

And if you just go ahead and, you know, take one plant and set it off

in one corner and another plant in the other corner, you know, given

all like, you know, the same water levels and everything like that.

But.

Actually speak to one of the plants and you, and you say loving things to it

that are kind that plant flourishes.

It does so much better than the plant that you do not talk to.

so truly, truly, truly giving a good intention to the water is so important.

There was also a scientist who would flash freeze water and look at

the crystals that it would create.

And he would do things like getting water from a stream and flash freeze

it, and then getting water from, you know, the streets of New York,

basically like a, from a city.

In the gutter.

Right.

And he would flash freeze those waters.

And you could see that the ones that were from the nature, from the stream

in, in the wild were these beautiful crystal like structures, but then the

ones from the city were so just like.

I don't even know if you would call it a crystal like structure, it was disgusting.

And then he would do it where, you know, he would, he like say, I love you.

And then say, I hate you do the water.

And then, uh, flash freeze them.

And you would see the difference in the structure.

It's it's really incredible.

The ones you say, I love you.

Two are so beautiful, you know, uh, he would even play different kinds of

music to them and see what would happen.

So remember too, you are 55 to 70% water.

Water is listening.

So whatever you're saying to yourself, You are listening, say beautiful

things and look beautiful, right?

that's a, that's the goal here for connecting to the water element.

Now another form of connecting to the water element is simply spending

time in natural bodies of water.

So this could be a lake, a river, a stream, an ocean, whatever it

may be, try to go out and get connected to those bodies of water.

It is also a form of grounding as well.

So, uh, you can go out there and really just get connected to the water.

Nicely to the water, you know, let it, uh, connect with you.

You can make it as spiritual as you want, or as just scientific as you want.

But nonetheless, it is a really good practice and, uh, you can also

feel the healing properties of the water, and you can also get some

good exercise in the water as well.

If you care to do some swimming.

and then another form of connecting to the water.

And I really enjoy, well, I don't know if I necessarily enjoy it, but I

love the effects of after it's done.

And that is an ice bath.

So if you've never done an ice bath before, um, and you are in Southern

California, my favorite place to go is at space bar wellness, and

they are located in Pasadena.

An awesome setup.

They have a, uh, ice bath.

I think it's called Mora ZKO forge or something like that.

But the water is literally cooled down to like 34 degrees Fahrenheit.

It's extremely freezing, but the after effects of doing an

ice ice bath are so incredible.

You have.

You know, these huge spikes in dopamine and, um, I believe it's

epinephrine or neuro epinephrine.

I can't remember.

I think it's neuro epinephrine, but essentially you feel

incredible after you do a ice bath.

So really, really enjoy that connection to the water there.

And then the last way of connecting to the element water is to simply

cleanse the inner water within you.

So once again, we are a micro form of the planet, right?

We have water within ourselves.

It's just not usually in the form of just pure water.

Obviously it's maybe in the form of blood or lymphatic fluid, but

nonetheless, you need to think of these waters as the waters outside.

So we need to worry about the quality and the purity of the water that we consume.

Just as much as we need to worry about the cur, uh, the quality and

purity of the water inside of us.

And this means doing practices that are going to help cleanse this water,

this internal water within ourselves, a few different ways of doing that are

actually, um, you know, a few things you could take are like activated

charcoal because that will bind to toxins and help remove them from your body.

obviously drinking really high quality water is going to help cleanse the

body and refresh it, refresh the blood, refresh the lymphatic fluid,

which you have a ton of that as well.

It's a very important.

And another way, uh, that I really like to stay cleansed is simply by taking

chlorella or spirulina as well, but chlorella because has really, really

high levels of chroy, which is literally what gives like the, the pigment, the

green pigment color to plants, but it has the, uh, chroy has the highest levels of

chroy out of anything that we know of.

So when you take it, it is extremely detoxifying for

your blood and for your body.

It binds to heavy metals and toxins and helps to remove them

from your body, from your blood.

It's extremely, extremely beneficial.

I take, uh, energy bits Srilina and chlorella mixture.

It's called vitality bits.

It's my favorite.

I take 'em every single day.

I take three to four of them, every single.

and I actually interviewed the founder, Katherine Aton on a previous

podcast, I believe was episode 67, where she just drops so much health

knowledge on all things, algae and spearing and chlorella because, uh,

once again, they are algae, they're a whole food, they're not a supplement.

So really incredible.

Please go listen to that episode.

If you haven't already.

Um, I highly recommend it.

If you want to go ahead and buy some out, I'll have the link in the show

notes and just use code elemental.

You'll get 20% off, uh, for being a listener to this show.

And yeah, it's incredible stuff.

If you don't care to go through energy bits, that's up to you.

You can go ahead and shop around, but there are really.

High quality company.

And, uh, you know, that what you're getting is well worth it, and it's

a very cost effective as well.

Like I said, um, you can get a thousand tablets for, I think it was like a

hundred dollars and that'll last, you, you know, over a half a year right there.

So it's a very cost effective, uh, you know, quote unquote supplement,

but more, a whole food to.

so that that's definitely a great way of making sure we're staying clean

internally in terms of our internal water.

And then on top of that, doing exercises is going to be key for cleansing,

not only our, you know, getting our blood moving so that it's getting

filtered, but also to cleanse our lymph.

Fat fluid.

So doing things like jumping on a trampoline is actually going to, uh,

that's called rebounding and it's going to be really effective in moving

the lymphatic system, which is very important because a lot of toxins

can build up in our lymphatic system.

so making sure we're moving that fluid is gonna be key.

And another way of doing it is just simple exercise.

Any kind of exercise is gonna help move your lymphatic fluid, make

sure it's processing properly.

Um, I've covered it on earlier episodes where I talk about

how exercise is actually.

You know, derived from the term to like, uh, perform like exorcism, right?

Like to remove from the body, which makes sense.

Uh, when you exercise, you are removing toxins from the body.

So definitely exercise is a great way to make sure that you are, uh,

moving your internal fluids and keeping them healthy and clean.

uh, and in terms of connecting to the water element, because I love

to do exercises that also pair really well with the elements.

You can do all these different kinds of flowy, uh, type exercises.

So you could do, you know, a Vinyasa yoga class you could do.

What's called like animal flow, animal style flow.

Um, They're like functional movements.

And, uh, those are really cool.

They're very similar in a lot of ways to, uh, a Vinyasa yoga class,

but, you know, you're kind of flowing like water would naturally flow.

So I, I really enjoy those, uh, styles of workouts.

And also they get into all the little muscles that you didn't know you had.

You know, and, and you're pretty much just using your body weight, but a lot

of the times, uh, that's all you need.

So anyways, those are going to be ways that you can connect to the water element.

Like I said, I'm covering these elements because I want to explain how

these are so beneficial to our health.

They're actually key to our health and making our bodies perform

at the best, uh, highest level.

So, uh, I also explained on the last episode, the earth, uh, earth element

episode that I'm thinking of putting together a, you know, maybe a two week

course where I go through it with you.

Uh, so I would put together a group of people and we would all go through

the course together, similar to the elemental seven day health reset, but

just a really, you know, Course on connecting to the elements and really

improving our health because I've seen so many people gain huge benefit from

my seven day, uh, health reset course.

and I would love to just share that with all of you and really go through

it with you because I feel that's when we really get the best, uh, uh, outcomes

is when we have that accountability.

And I can really kind of share some insert or insider tips on it and just

help you connect to the elements, improve your sleep, improve your

focus, improve your health, make you feel better, make you look better.

Uh, all of that can come from just reconnecting to the elements.

Now, I don't know how many.

Of a special offer, our left that I created a while back because I'm recording

a few episodes at the same time, but, uh, technically there are three, uh,

slots open of this offer that I'm giving.

And it is essentially if you purchase the.

Elemental seven day health reset.

You can get my breathwork or prone Yama course for free.

So I'm doing this just for listeners.

I'm not promoting this on my social media at all.

And I, I was giving away five, two of them were already gone.

Um, and then, like I said, uh, this is.

You know, I'm recording a few episodes at the same time, so there might

not be any, uh, spots left, but nonetheless, go ahead and just shoot me

a message on either Instagram or email.

Those are both linked in the show notes.

And just go ahead and shoot me a message.

Say seven day reset and I'll know exactly what you're talking about.

And if I have any spots open, Which, like I said, there's

technically three open right now.

So, uh, go ahead and try to reach out to me as soon as you can

with the word seven day reset.

And I will go ahead and shoot you over the code to get the

breathwork course for free.

So, Alrighty guys, that is going to do it for today's episode.

If you found any benefit in this episode, It goes so far.
