Hi Loves!
 
Have you been thinking of ways to up your water intake game?
Yes? Perfect! You’re in the right place!
No? That’s okay. You should stick around anyway. This is going to be a good one!
 
I’m going to share my best tips to drink more water throughout the day. Let’s go!
 

1. Always bring water with you wherever you go.

You can’t drink water if you don’t have any! Be sure to always have some water with you. Make it a habit to bring a water bottle wherever you go and keep it by your side. Every time you see it, let it be a reminder to drink.
 

2. Set mini goals throughout the day to help you.

I have these mini goals that I use to help me consistently drink water throughout the day. For instance, when I wake up in the morning, I immediately get a glass of water and I make sure that glass is finished prior to taking my morning shower. During the day, when I realize that I haven’t drank water in a while, I push myself to finish the glass I have in front of me.

You could also pick up one of these awesome water bottles with time markers. The time markers indicate how much water should be consumed by a given time.

3. Use an app to set reminders and help you track your progress.

I’ve tried a few different apps out there. The one that has worked the best for me was Plant Nanny. I find this app to be very effective because it sort of turns drinking water into a game. I always say it’s about your mindset. Change your mind and your thoughts – and change your world. This app does just that! The goal is to keep your plant alive by watering it. You water your plant by logging in the volume of water you consume in real life. The more you drink, the more your plant grows. When your plant is all grown, you can move it to the greenhouse and plant another one. I know, it sounds like a lot of work. But don’t knock it until you try it! It might just work for you! The app sends also you push notifications (don’t forget to allow them) to remind you it’s time to drink. This is another feature that makes the app effective for me.

 

 

4. Challenge yourself to beat your best record.

This might be helpful if you use the tip above and download an app to help track your daily water intake progress. Remember, your only competition is yourself. And sometimes competition can help you with motivation.
Thousands have lived without love, not one without water.

5. Use fun vessels, cute tumblers, cups, and bottles/decorate with stickers.

Having something cute/fun to drink out of can definitely make a difference. It might cause you to look at it more than you would if it wasn’t aesthetically pleasing. One year I gave my best friend a cute water bottle in her favorite color as part of her Christmas gift. She told me that she noticed she drinks a lot of water when she uses it. I love helping friends stay hydrated!
Here are some cute water bottles you should consider getting:

6. Use double/triple-walled or insulated bottles or cups.

If you do not like drinking warm/room temperature water, I suggest getting yourself double/triple-walled/insulated drinking vessels. These keep cold things cold and hot things hot… usually for hours. It’s insane. There are hundreds of brands out there: Hydroflask, Yeti, Tervis, Frost Buddy… just to name a few. Grab one for yourself here:

7. Infuse your water with fruits/drink carbonated water.

If the taste of water just gets boring for you, you could always try infusing your water. Take your water from blah to YEAH! There are loads of different combinations you could try, so you shouldn’t have problems with variety.
Here are some water bottles that have an infuser feature:
Infusion Pro Fruit Infuser Water Bottle Vacuum Insulated (20 oz)

These aren’t totally necessary to have. You could achieve similar results by just plopping your ingredients into some water, but these infuser bottles help to keep all the solid pieces from getting into your mouth while you’re drinking.
Another thing I like to do to switch it up is to have some carbonated water. I don’t know what it is, but I feel like the fizz from the carbonation does it for me. I enjoy feeling like my mouth is on fire with every sip. Haha! All jokes aside though, this helps me a lot. Get your hands on some carbonated water here:

8. Remind yourself of the many benefits of being properly hydrated.

If all else fails, remember why you’ve set out to drink x amount of water in the first place. There are so many amazing benefits to drinking water. It delivers oxygen throughout the body, flushes out body waste, significantly affects energy levels and brain function, prevents kidney damage, and can aid with weight loss.
I hope this helps you to become a habitual water guzzler. Did I miss anything? I’m all ears for more ways to keep hydrated.
