How to Build a Hydration Habit

Proper hydration is crucial for staying healthy, yet many people struggle to avoid dehydration. (Wondering how to tell if you’re hydrating properly? Learn the symptoms of dehydration.)

Developing consistent, proactive hydration habits can be a challenge, but it’s totally achievable! And whether you’re always on the go or you’ve recently started moving your body more, proactive hydration could be the ultimate game changer.

Stay Hydrated Morning, Nuun and Night

Staying hydrated doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes, it’s as simple as starting your day—or your next adventure—well hydrated and ready to move! We’ve done the legwork for you by identifying three key times of day that you should practice proactive hydration, plus some simple habits to help you start and finish hydrated.  

Pro Tip: Electrolytes aren’t just for exercise—they help you absorb water at ANY time of day, so you can stay hydrated. Learn more about electrolytes and their importance here. 

Hydrate in the Morning

  • Wake up with water. Start the day off right with 8 fl oz of water to replenish your body.

  • Add Nuun (electrolytes) before noon. Proactive hydration starts in the morning, so add electrolytes to your water as part of your mid-morning routine.

Hydrate On the Move

  • Warm up with Nuun. Incorporate electrolytes into your pre-workout routine. And don’t forget to sip during and after movement, too!

  • Remember your water bottle. A reusable water bottle is the perfect sidekick on your hydration quest, so be proactive about grabbing it when you leave the house. Run through a mental checklist: phone, keys, wallet, water.  

Hydrate at Night

  • Take time for water. Life gets busy, so find a quiet moment to hydrate after your fast-paced day. Sipping water with dinner can be a refreshing start to your evening.

  • Sip before sleep. Did you know your body loses water during sleep? Prepare for a good night's rest by adding electrolytes to your bedtime routine.

As with many health and wellness strategies, being proactive is the best way to change your hydration habits. So, don’t wait—try these tips today, and before long, hydrating early and often will be an indispensable part of your routine.
