Sometimes we don’t know what we need to do but we know we need to do something! Trust us it can be a lot to comprehend. The first step in making positive change is to simply just get started.

Personal peace is sacred and should be protected at all times and it’s essential for healthy well-being. Everyone’s journey is different so the time will vary, it just needs to be a priority.

2. Not at all.
3. Eat what you want, periodt!

No matter how we tackle this, everyone knows that what we choose to eat greatly contributes to or can offset a healthy lifestyle. Making food choices that will benefit the body should be the baseline. Everything may not work for everyone. Incorporating whole foods, fruits, and vegetables is always a great way to start. Moderation is key when it comes to sugar.

1. A cup or two of water per day.
2. None!
3. 64 ounces per day or more

Nature’s beverage is a necessity. Without water, the body can be robbed of so much. Dehydration, which is what the body deals with when there is not enough water in it, can weaken the immune system, affect the heart and mental health, slow down metabolism, and cause some to age prematurely. Drinking at least 64 ounces per day, which is about 8 glasses, should be the bare minimum. Actually, drinking more water would be much better and the skin, nails, and hair will thank you later. Health and wellness are wealth. Cherish and protect them at all costs!
