Tips for a Healthy and Happy Life

1. Get your daily dose of laughter. A good loud and unrestrained burst of laughter provides physical and psychological benefits such as muscle relaxation and the release of "feel good" brain chemicals.
2. Appreciate and enjoy the small everyday things. Happiness is not just around the corner, it is right in front of you.
3. Let go and realize that you aren't in complete control of every single aspect of your life. Have faith in a Higher Power.
4. Address how you feel - especially your anger. Talk it out or write a letter describing how you feel (but don't send it).
5. Eat a well-balanced diet and get regular exercise. Avoid dangerous health habits such as smoking, excessive alcohol intake, and drug abuse.
6. Practice preventive health care. For example, take symptoms such as pain and fatigue that continue for more than a couple of weeks seriously and visit a doctor.
7. Don't hold grudges. Learn to let go of the past and to move on with your life. Free your heart to love to the fullest.
