When the temperature gets soaring, you need to think of ways to beat the heat and stay hydrated. You cannot exactly sit at home and wait until the heat waves pass. You have to work, and for some of you, the work might even be physically exerting. You might also be a gym-rat who expends a lot of sweat while working out. Therefore, you must ensure that your body has the right level of fluids to stay in a proper working condition. Now, while you are working on that challenging piece of content, or coming up with effective strategies for marketing, you might not always remember to drink up. But we need to figure out ways in which we can. This is where this article comes into the picture. We are going to find out ways in which staying hydrated would not sound like a nuclear project anymore.
Get Apps That Remind You To Drink Water:
We basically live on social media and phones filled with apps for every single thing. It is thus, probably time to get an app that will actually do good to our health. There are several apps available on your phone’s app store, which shall remind you to drink up at regular intervals. You need only download them from the store and set a reminder. You can manually adjust the quantity of water that you would want to drink every day and can also set the intervals at which you would want to drink water.
Get Your Friend/Colleague To Remind You:
True friends are those who would remind you to stay hydrated throughout the day. Ask your friend or colleague at work to remind you to drink water. You could also do the same for him/her. This way, you could stay hydrated by giving the body the required amount of water, and you will also have bonded over some really healthy routine.
Get Cute Juice and Water Bottles:
The kind of water bottles or juice bottles you carry can also determine the amount of water and fluids you would be drinking throughout the day. Cute bottles attract your attention way more than any other normal bottles. There are several bottles you can get in the market these days, which are not only stylish to look at, but also have fruit-infused flavours in them that make the water taste better than normal. Thus, if you are not much of a water drinker, maybe it is time to get one juicer water bottle to add a dash of fruity flavour to your regular and boring water.
Drink Up Every Time Someone Around You Is Drinking Water:
More often than not, while you are wading your way through nebulous calculations at work or college, the thought of drinking water might evade you. But if you keep your eyes open and have a penchant for observing people, you will always find someone drinking water or juice. Drink your fluids every time you see someone drinking water around you. That itself is a brilliant reminder that you can make use of. Make this a habit, and you will find your hands automatically reaching out for that bottle on your desk in a few days. This simple technique is a part of habit-formation, and one out of which you can reap benefits throughout your life.
Shift Your Focus To Fruits and Juices Too:
Drinking water is not enough when you have hydration on your mind. You need to eat fruits which are high in water content too, like watermelons, lemons and the like. You also need to keep the glucose level of your body high enough to be able to beat the heat and prevent dehydration. Fruits are the best sources of glucose, but if you find it difficult to eat them regularly, make sure that you have other alternatives. Also, drink a lot of fruit juices and reduce the intake of caffeine.
Conclusion:
It is quite easy to forget about the needs of your body. The grind that we find ourselves in every day leaves very little room for us to think about anything but working and making money hands over fists. But, think of it in this way. Your body is the most complicated of all machines. Every machine needs proper fuelling and care for it to work properly. The same holds true for your body as well. If you deny your body of the primary care and strip it off the minimum amount of water it requires to keep going, it will fail. Water is not known as the elixir of life for nothing. It keeps the blood pure, flushes out toxins and waste products from the body, keeps all the vital body parts in a proper working condition and helps the body absorb the required minerals and nutrients from the food we ingest. Therefore, do not be reckless about your body. Treat it with care and begin this routine by drinking a minimum of three litres of water each day.
