  1. Take a walk-Enjoy nature!
  2. ride a bike-ENJOY NATURE!

  5. Drink Water-It does more than you thinks.
  6. Take a multivitamin-Fill in the holes that your diet leaves.
  7. Hug someone you love-Nothing is better than hugging someone close.
  8. Hug someone you don’t love-Never underestimate the power of a hug.
  9. Eat fruit-5 a day keeps the doctor away. Fruit is a great snack throughout the day.
  10. Spend 30 min outside everyday. Rain or Shine (Ever danced the salsa in the rain? Give it a shot!)
  11. Take some quiet time for yourself-Some call it meditation. Others call it relaxation. Whatever you call it, it clears the mind and is a valuable part of health.
  12. Sleep-Sleep refreshes your body.
  13. Don’t oversleep-You need just enough sleep to refresh yourself. Too much sleep and you will become over tired.
  14. Breathe-take a few minutes every day and focus on your breathing. Concentrate on the breath in, and the breath out. This will remove any stress at the moment you are having. Just breath.
  15. meditate-Or relax. Do whatever you call it to have some time for YOU!
  16. read-Flex those intellectual muscles!
  17. Turn OFF the tv-It is a waste of time. Most channels offer condensed versions online. Why do you need to sit for an hour doing nothing?
  18. Smile-It keeps you in a positive mindset, which is critical for having a happy health life.
  19. Call your family-Mom, dad, brother, sister, friend that is like a brother-Call to check is a great way to relieve stress.
  20. Stay positive-See Smiling. Thinking positive is one of the most critical parts to living a happy, stress free life. It is all mental.
  21. Drink Less Alcohol-Alcohol in moderation is not a bad thing. But too much, even just a bit too much-throws you over the edge.
  22. Be grateful for the day-You are alive. You are working on your health. You have things you appreciate in your life. Be grateful for those things. Say it out loud-”I am grateful for….”
  23. Eat less-Simple and effective. Moderation in everything and everything in moderation.
  24. Eat Green Leafy veggies-Salads are a great source of fiber, calcium and iron-essentials for a health body, especially for women.
  25. Quit smoking-HUGE! If you smoke, you are hindering yourself from getting healthy. If you need help, get it. Quiting smoke (although I know easier said then done) is a huge way to instantly increase your health.
  26. BONUS!: Enjoy life. It is a gift.
