Have you ever been having a beautiful day outside and then suddenly remember that you forgot to take your daily vitamin? A mood killer, right?! This happens to all of us! But what if there are ways to avoid forgetting? That is where we come in! We understand that maintaining a vitamin routine can be a hassle, especially if you have little ones running around. We know some ways to help alleviate that “forgot to take vitamin” stress! Here are some ways to remind yourself to take your daily vitamin!
Our first recommendation is to set an alarm as a reminder! There is no easier way to be reminded than an alarm. You can use your smart devices, such as a phone, iPad, or even a smart speaker! (Hellooo Alexa!) There are even vitamin reminder apps that you can download! But, if a device is not available to you, you can go with the good ol’ fashion “sticky notes on the mirror” trick. This method is useful to some! It does not only have to be on the mirror, but it can also be on your refrigerator, kitchen counter, bedside table, even where you make your morning beverages!
Another tip is to keep your vitamins visible! One of the reasons why you are probably forgetting about them is because they are stored away in a cupboard or drawer. If they are not in front of you, how can you remember to take them? That is why we recommend placing them somewhere where you normally frequent, like your coffee machine or your snacking pantry! You could also keep them at your bedside, that way once you get up, you can automatically take your daily! You know yourself the best, you get to choose where to put them!
And last, but not least, is to carry your vitamins everywhere you go! Store your vitamins in a weekly pill organizer and keep them in your bag or wherever you feel comfortable. This method is a lifesaver because if you forgot to take them at home, you still have some on you no matter what!
When it comes to sticking to routines, it is never easy. We know that life can get too hectic and that nothing is certain, but at the end of the day, you know yourself the best! And that is the fun part, you get to try out these different methods and choose what works best for you! We hope that you find these tips helpful and begin to incorporate these methods into your everyday routine!
