A main concern for everyone is maintaining health and happiness. You will start to feel great if you incorporate these tips into your daily life. It is not a difficult thing to stay healthy. Don't worry; you won't have to spend money on books or fitness machines. Simply follow some of these tips to find good health and the resultant peace that a healthy body brings to the mind.

1. Be aware of your breath. People hold their stress in different places. Being aware of your breath will allow you to relax and release some stress. Try taking slow and deep breaths.

2. Get some sun. The sun is a great source of Vitamin D. It's good to get about ten minutes of direct sun (without sunscreen) each day. Because mid-day sun is very harsh, stand out in the morning.

3. Drink water every day-are bodies are 60-70% water! Not only does water get rid of toxins, but it also carries nutrients. It is important to stay hydrated, and sometimes when you are hungry, you may actually be thirsty. Try adding a little maple syrup, lemon, or lime for flavor.

4. Exercise. You can walk, run, or go to the gym. Thirty minutes of exercise a day is great. You might like to try yoga, pilates, or tai chi. Find a friend to exercise with, and they will also help you to stay motivated.

5. Laugh often. Laughing not only makes you feel great, but it relieves stress.

6. Fresh fruits and vegetables are very important. Fruits and veggies are low in calories and a great source of vitamins and minerals. When possible, choose organic for the following reasons: they are not genetically modified, are higher in nutrients, and are not sprayed with conventional pesticides. Try to incorporate superfoods (foods with many health benefits) into your diet such as flax seeds, spirulina, olives, avocados, blueberries, cacao, bee pollen, aai, maca, aloe vera, and noni fruit.

Be positive. Enjoy everything you do, this is YOUR life.
