Over the last week I have focussed on my hydration. Mainly as I was feeling a little tired in the afternoons and realised that my water intake was lower than it should be.<\/p>\n
So, using a 1 litre bottle, I made a decision to drink two litres while at work. Nice and easy, as it\u2019s a litre bottle, just fill it twice\u2026. No\u2026. Half fill the bottle! This way I am encouraged to take those extra steps each morning and afternoon to fill the bottle. This is also an opportunity to have a short discussion with a colleague by the water tap. Alternatively, I should consider a 500ml bottle or even a 250ml bottle to make me Move More!<\/p>\n
Initially, I did forget to drink the water. But with a little focus, and perseverance, it was made possible. I am particularly looking forward to the ongoing health benefits from this one little change to my day.<\/p>\n
By keeping my mind on the task \u2013 PostIt note attached to screen \u2013 I have succeeded in getting my water intake up to where it should be during the day, walked extra steps (approximately 300 a day) and most importantly, I feel less tired (primary focal point) as I am hydrated. We all know the benefits of hydration, combined with the other tips here I am looking forward to developing a healthier lifestyle, being more productive and enjoying life that little bit more while losing the extra pounds that I need to shed.<\/p>\n
May your life be positive and fulfilling.<\/p>\n
