10 Essential Health Tips "He who has health has hope,and he who has hope has everything."——Arabian Proverb

1.Move MoreMake it a daily challenge to find ways to move your body. Climb stairs if given a choice between that and escalators or elevators. Walk your dog; chase your kids; toss balls with friends; mow the lawn. Anything that moves your limbs is not only a fitness tool; it's a stress buster. Think "move" in small increments of time. It doesn't have to be an hour in the gym or a 45-minute aerobic dance class or tai chi or kickboxing. But that's great when you're up to it. Meanwhile, move more. Thought for the day:Cha, Cha, Cha…Then do it!
