Trick yourself into drinking more water!

Water is the best thing you can put in your body, yet so many of us ignore it throughout the day. Here are some great ways to trick yourself into developing a healthy habit of drinking lots of water every day.

Hide It In Your Daily Routine
If you already have a good morning and bedtime routine, make drinking water a part of it. You can still have your morning coffee, but add a glass of water in beforehand.

Get a Reusable Water Bottle and Mark It with Time-Oriented Goals
Water bottles are an excellent way to increase your water intake. Get a high-quality one, even if it costs you a little more. A good stainless steel or heavy-duty plastic bottle should do the trick. Once you've found one you like, take it with you everywhere.



Make It a Game
Gaming is an effective way to get yourself to do a lot of things, and drinking water is no exception. Incentivize your new water habit by rewarding yourself when you reach milestones. Go a whole week drinking your goal every day? Treat yourself to something you don't normally get. It goes both ways too. Forget to drink enough water yesterday? No Netflix or video games until you've made up for it.


Set a Timer and Create Mental Triggers
If you're still having a hard time remembering to drink water, set a timer on your phone. Create a few alarms set to go off throughout the day and when one goes off chug a big glass of water.



Jazz Up Your Water Drinking Experience
You might be more inclined to drink water if it was a little more interesting. Try adding cucumber or fresh fruits. Using purified water will also enhance the flavors you put into the water.



Eat Your Water
Yes, food has water in it too. It may not have enough for you to only eat your daily intake of water, but there are some foods you can snack on that can help. Fruits and vegetables are a great source of water.
