I eat delicious whole foods. My diet is rich in vegetables, fruits, and other healthy ingredients.
I exercise regularly. I join a gym and design a workout space at home. I run in the park and ride my bike to work. When I am sitting for long periods, I take breaks to stretch and move around.
I spend time with family and friends. I connect with my loved ones.
I give generously. I help my neighbors and donate time and money to worthy causes. Having a positive impact builds my confidence and warms my heart.
I carve out time for myself each day. I wake up early, so I can watch the sun rise and sip coffee before I start work. I work on my hobbies or read a novel before bed.
