One way I stay healthy is to realize my limitations (I have lupus and must be careful to not overdo it!) I have reprioritized my list of chores and duties and try to take a nap at mid-day. I stop before I get exhausted.

I also make sure to eat organic foods, drink clean water, and exercise daily for circulation and energy. We also change the air filters in our house when the seasons change, so we aren’t breathing through dirty air filters all year!

I’ve changed all the personal toiletries and cleaning products to non-chemical, natural alternatives, because I get a skin rash, fevers or nauseous if I come into contact with heavy pollutants, chemicals or toxins.

This is a great topic.

First of all, know what you want. Then don’t wait for a strong urge to do whatever it will take to get you that healthier lifestyle. Do not procrastinate.

Don’t set yourself up for failure. Take baby steps when trying to make any lifestyle change. Go easy on yourself. You’re only human.

Also, whatever it is you want to do, exercise maybe. It helps to do that first thing in your day, get it out of the way. Look at your change not as a chore but a really good and wonderful thing you are doing for yourself.

Hi Tonya,

One way I attract a healtier life style is to focus on drinking 8 or more glasses of water a day and making sure I eat 3 veggies and 2 fruits a day. A balanced diet is the key to a healhier lifestyle – mind, body and soul.

Hi Tonya,

One way I foster a healthier lifestyle is through time for myself by way of “meditation”…it really clears my mind of the clutter and makes room for the useful things. It rejuvenates me, mind, body, and soul.

And of course the biggie for me is the foods I choose to put into my system.

One thing that I do to attract health is to really be aware of my choices and to make wiser ones. For example, I have been more about reading label when groccery shopping and choosing organic foods when I can.

I think that being aware of our choices and how they affect our health is an important first step in attracting health into our lives. It is the realization that we are the ones that can choose to be healthier through even the smallest efforts.
