Here are 10 creative tips to drink more water - getting your water fix has never been easier.
1. Invest in a water bottle you love
Make a point to purchase a nice water bottle that you really love and are happy to bring with you everywhere from the office to the gym.
2. There’s an app for that
There really is an app for everything, even keeping track of your water intake. This makes it easier to follow your pace and analyze your water consumption throughout the day; Waterlogged and Daily Water are two great apps!
3. Add your own flavor
Add in fruits like berries and apples, or veggies like cucumbers to give your water some extra flavor!
4. Be wallet savvy
Instead of ordering a soft drink or a Caesar when you’re out at a restaurant, opt for a glass of water. Not only is it healthier, it saves you money. Win, win.
5. Eat up
Another great way to consume more water is by eating water-rich foods such as cucumbers, watermelons, salad greens and melons. Munching on these will keep you hydrated and refreshed as you go about your day.
6. Work it into your routine
If you’re anything like me, you have a morning and night routine you stick to on the daily. Drink water as part of these routines.
7. Add it to juice
This is something I’ve done since I was young; most likely because my mom does it too. With my morning glass of orange juice, I add only a little bit of juice while most of the cup I fill up with water. Now a full cup of orange juice is way too sweet. Another great option is adding sparkling water to your juices, for an extra refreshing kick!
8. Drink more tea
Drinking tea is an awesome way to consume more water. And since tea has become so popular in recent years, there are tons of healthy and flavourful options to choose from!
9. Keep it close
Keep your water with you wherever you go. That way, when your thirsty it will be sitting right there and you’ll be more likely to sip on it then going to buy a coffee.
10. Track it
Whether you make a DIY water bottle that tracks your hourly intake, or keep a schedule in your agenda, tracking your water consumption will help you stay on track and get the optimal amount throughout the day!
