Wellness doesn't just happen. Only conscious choices can give you a vibrant, energy-filled existence. Like any other challenge in life, treat positive lifestyle changes as an opportunity to mature and grow. Plus, being healthy can be fun!
Diet
Avoid refined, processed foods (basically, anything with white flour).
Avoid toxic fats, i.e., foods that are fried or made with hydrogenated oils.
Eat foods rich in phytonutrients, e.g., berries, cruciferous vegetables and soybeans.
Fitness
Keep a set of medium-weight dumbbells by your bed. Do a couple of reps when you wake up and at night before bed.
Put a stationary bike in front of your TV and only watch while pedaling.
Develop a stretching routine for increased flexibility. For instance, try simple yoga poses.
