Original Advice
“DO: Drink water before coffee each morning”
Water First, Then Light the Fuse
Stop pretending coffee is a personality. Your mornings already tilt toward static. You wake dehydrated, your heart asks for mercy, and you answer with a siren. You call it focus; your body calls it alarm. Anxiety loves an open door. You hand it the key at sunrise. Interrupt the ritual. Flood the system with water before you light the fuse. Simple. Unromantic. Necessary.
Overnight, you lose water and clarity. Cortisol rises to wake you; caffeine stacks on top and calls it destiny. Dehydration thickens your blood; your pulse works harder for less. Water lowers the noise floor. It cools the spark, steadies the head, clears the gut. Coffee is a tool, not a law. Prime the instrument, then play. Drink first, then decide how loud you want to be.
Cosmic Context
You’re a water sign with thin membranes and deep tides. Hydrate the ocean first, and coffee becomes an oar, not a riptide.
