Attitude is everything!  When you wake up in the morning, you set the tone for the entire day so wake up and smile in the mirror!  Today is your day!  Here are a few other tips to make your day better and boost your mood!

1)     Don't be afraid to jump in the puddles, it brings out our inner child and reminds us that even if we get wet we can still have fun.  It doesn't have to be raining to get wet, remember how good it feels to splash around in the tub or shower.

2)     When you are frightened, switch fear to inspiration. Remember there are many ways to get the same job done- change your process not the end results.  So something as easy as wearing a pedometer can get you to that regular exercise routine instead of jumping on a treadmill.

3)     Somethings gotta give.  Even when you do everything right, the seed still grows slowly.  Flowers take a long time to bloom, so remember to be patient and enjoy each little ray of sunshine.


30% of boomers feel that their physical health is worse than they expected at this point in their lives.
-          20% say their physical health is what they would like to change the most.
-          89% have done something to fight aging, with heart disease and aging being their two main health concerns.
-          Women reported that their most preferred physical activity is walking (35%) and more than half of them walk at least one a week.
-          Boomers are the first generation that grew up exercising, and expect to be able to able to exercise well into their 70’s.  
Well if that isn’t enough information to motivate you to move, I am not sure what is other than a heart attack.  The truth is exercise is a choice and when you choose to move, you will have more enrgy, sleep better, have better brain function, strengthen your heart and may even lose weight.  As little as 10 minutes of walking before and after work can make significant changes. 
So here’s my challenge - if you can exercise for one month straight, 5 out of 7 days a week for at least 20 minutes of exercise, e-mail me with your results.  I will send you an exercise DVD for your success to get to the next level.
