As a physical therapist I know the importance of physical activity and that intensity of that physical activity matters. I also know my propensity to get bored easily, and that I am very unlikely to stick with treadmills, ellipticals, bikes or Zumba. So I knew it was important for me to find something that I can do regularly with varying intensities, and (probably the most important part to sticking with it) it had to be fun. As an adult I picked up tennis, and I love it.

A deliciously healthy spin on everyone’s favorite comfort food… Chinese. Switch it up by serving over the classic steamed white or brown rice, quinoa, or even nontraditionally over zucchini noodles, spaghetti squash, or your pick of mixed vegetables. This ones a keeper!

This does not mean you have to purchase a fancy gym membership or hire a personal trainer to kick your butt into shape. Really, all it takes is as little as 15 minutes of your time whether you have the luxury of a local gym or the convenience of your bedroom floor!

A healthy diet paves a way for a healthy heart and lifestyle. As explained in the Body Article, what you put into your body and how well you treat it, will have a direct correlation on your actions, feelings, and health. The word “diet” does not mean you have to jump through crazy hoops and cut out all the things you love! It’s not an “all or nothing choice” to clean up your eating.
