8. Surround yourself with people that do not drain your batteries
It may sound crazy, but the less drama you have in your life, the better it is for your health. Some people always complain, and when they are done pouring into you, you feel weighed down. I know we all have cloudy days, but we have to face those days head-on, those issues head-on, and then move on. If you always have a problem, you might be the problem.
I’m working on my hydration this year to do my best. It’s so important in so many aspects of our lives.
I’m right there with you. Hydration has been a long-term battle of mine.
Those are some great tips! I like do what you love the best!
Thank you; that is one of my favourites too.
Some great suggestions here on staying healthy, especially on getting a yearly test done to ensure there are no underlying health problems and concerns
Thank you. Prevention is better than cure.
Oh how I love, “Minding your own business is golden”! Life is far less complicated and happier when I’m not fighting battles that are not mine to fight.
I have found since working out more often (which in turn makes me drink more water) I do feel less stressed. I need to try and avoid overeating as it’s something I definitely do x
I am still working on my water intake. It’s a journey.
This is perfect for the start of the year for everyone looking to get healthier this year! Great tips, I really enjoyed reading this.
Thank you!
It’s important to set boundaries and set time aside for yourself..to enjoy your own company and reconnect with yourself. Great tips here! Mental health is SO important.
Mental health is often overlooked but like you said it’s SO important.
Staying hydrated is very underated. I often overlook this one myself but when I do my best, I feel my best.
Very underrated. I am working on my intake daily.
My stress levels sometimes are insane. These are great tips, thank you!
You’re welcome. I refer to this list from time to time, especially when feeling derailed.
I’m working on staying as active as possible and drinking more water. I love fruit and veg, although probably don’t each as much as I should.
A little effort goes a long way. I am getting better at tracking my water intake.
So many great tips in here, perfect for the New Year New Me frame of mine. I never realized that over eating could affect stress – thank you for sharing.
Thank you for your feedback. Overeating puts a significant strain on our system. It’s something that I have to monitor in myself. I am a grazer, lol, and it compounds quickly.
For me staying active is really important – I really find exercise is the best stress buster and I have to do something daily else I can feel it building up!
Exercise helps me a lot too. I have so much more energy during the way when I exercise.
That’s sums up everything we can do to avoid stress. One more thing I want to add will be “Don’t care about small and stupid things”. I hope you will agree with me. Lol
I 100% agree with you.
These are excellent tips. I struggle with anxiety and need to find a way to de-stress more. Thank you!
You’re welcome. I can relate to the struggle with anxiety.
Outstanding post! Minding your own business is definitely a great point to apply to my life..

Michelle, it has kept me out of so much trouble. I am in my corner, and I am only aware of most things that concern me.
Great read. Thanks for the list. There were some things on the bad list that surprised me. Time to change it up again I guess. Unfortunately, I’m not sure how easily accessible doctors are in this pandemic to keep up with yearly checkups but yes, a great tip to keep up with our health and to check-in every so often.
Thanks for reading. The list surprised me too but alas there’s always room for improvement. The pandemic is definitely a hindrance to yearly checkups and all other non-COVID illnesses.
Great read indeed, I would add, look for the good in every situation! See the glass half filled !
Thank you for ready Tash. Those are great suggestions sis, thank you.
The list of alkaline and acidic foods is of great interest to me. Thank you.
You’re welcome. I refer to it on an almost daily basis.
