It’s hard to stay hydrated, but we all know it’s very important. Sometimes "tricks" like having a favorite water bottle or creating rituals help us remember to drink enough water (or other hydrating beverages) during the day.
Do you have any "tricks" to remind yourself to drink enough during the day? If so, please share them with us!
I make my water tasty, like by adding a slice of fresh lemon. (36.4%)
I add lots of ice to my drinks to make them more enjoyable. (28.0%)
I keep my favorite flavored drink stocked up at home. (26.2%)
I always carry a bottle of water with me while at the office or at home. (55.5%)
I actually like warm water. Probably because I usually feel cold, even in the summer because my office is over-airconditioned. So i like to keep a mug of warm water with me all the time...holding it makes my hands stay warm and drinking it feels cozy. It may sound silly!, but this ritual helps me drink a lot every day.
I keep a glass or bottle of water with me at all times. When I am going from room to room for any period of time or from downstairs to upstairs. When I go to the store I always take some with me (or buy one when I get there). I even fill my glass at night and put it on my nightstand. Sometimes flavoring the water gives a change of taste. Keeping it within site reminds me to drink. It may sound silly, but like the reverse of "out of site, out of mind"! Happy Hydrating!!
america is severly dehydrated and we should try our best to drink as much water as we can

I learned, while in the dry Southwest, either a)don't drink much water and be extremely uncomfortable or b)hydrate and be comfortable! Everything on your body works better if it gets enough water, so, may I share the reinforcement I get...don't just sip, but take a big swig .out of your bottle, or down a glass, and your body will react with a big, involuntary "aahhhh'...as in, aahhh, feels so good. I always keep a BIG bottle handy (refill from a filtered source), cause it's the delivery system that counts!
I do the same as jemappel. After a few cups of jo to get me started in the morning, I switch to warm water. It tastes good to me and it doesn't stain your teeth like tea and coffee.
I have a great insulated bottle. I can add half ice, half water and it stays nice and cold all day. Use those reuseable bottles, ladies!
i not a big fan of water so i normall add lemon or natural friut flavor to my water with plenty of ice to enjoy it! at work i carry the crystal light packets on the go!
I drink plenty of water all day long.
