You KNOW you need to, but you don’t – 5 Ways To Drink More Water

• It’s pointless to convince you that you need to drink plenty of water… plenty of water = better health
• The roadblocks you face:
  • Addiction (or preference) for other drinks
  • Remembering to do it
• Here are 5 ways to knock down these roadblocks

1. Do it first thing in the morning
   • Create a new habit
   • Place a glass of water next to your bed
   • Drink it first thing when you wake up – always
2. Add some flare/flavor
   • Spark it – Use sparkling water instead of regular water – this is a great way to transition from soda
   • Squeeze it – Squeeze fresh citrus (lemon, lime, orange) into your water to give it more zing!
   • Infuse it – Infuse your water with fresh fruits [Google: infused water ideas]
   • Ice it – Freeze fresh fruit (grapes, cherries, blueberries, etc) [Google: fruit ice cubes]
3. Make it convenient
   • Keep a bottle or glass of water close to you at all times
4. Stack it on another habit
   • Identify a small habit you currently practice several times a day:
     • Sit down at your desk
     • Take a break Attach the act of drinking water with that habit:
     • When I take a break, then I will drink water
5. Eliminate other temptations
   • Remove other drink options from your environment
     • Don’t keep sodas, sugary juices in your house – focus on buying less and less each time you shop
     • Want to keep other drink options in your house? Cool – make it a hassle to get to them
       • Make accessing them inconvenient
       • Definitely keep them out of your immediate environment
