Plain water is a snooze. We get it. So jazz it up.
Squeeze a lemon. Throw in some cucumber. Get a funny straw. I’m not kidding. The sillier the cup, the more you’ll drink.
Set a timer. Keep a bottle on your desk. Make it a game. “Can I drink more water than Janet from accounting?” (Yes, you can. Janet is all coffee.)
The Final Sip
Here’s the truth you came for. There is no perfect number. You are not broken if you don’t hit eight glasses.
Your body is smart. It’s been hydrating itself since you were a zygote. Trust it a little.
Drink when you’re thirsty. Look at your pee. Eat your juicy fruit. And for the love of all that is holy, don’t chug a gallon just because some influencer told you to.
Stay hydrated, you magnificent, slightly-dehydrated mammal. Now go get a glass of water. I’ll wait.
