The 7 principles of health

- Buy some plants!
2. Water

3. Sunlight
Embracing the principle of Sunlight

5. Movement
Embracing the principle of Movement
- It´s all about integrating movement it into your life. Where you park the car? Do you use the stairs? Can you eat your lunch in the park?
- If there´s a certain time of the day that you can do exercise, do it then. It will have massive rewards for the rest of your life.
- If you can only find the time to walk, walk in the sun for 20 minutes, out in the fresh air and before you leave take a bottle of water and you will have just embraced 4 of the seven principle of health. It is one of the simplest but healthiest things you can do for yourself.
- It doesn´t have to be hard, go easy but go regularly. Five minutes is better than no minutes.
6. Good Relationships
Embracing the principle of Good Relationships
- Learn to love yourself more by acknowledging what other people could do for you that would make you feel good. Tell them, so they can! And do the same for others!
- Take time out if you feel overwhelmed by negative emotion. In that state we can only react and usually put our pain onto others.
- And allow yourself to feel love more often with the people you can. They will love you for it.
7. Passion
Embracing the principle of Passion
- Every day take the time to become a little more clear on what you like and dislike. Hint: You are probably going to like the opposite of what you dislike!
- When you find things that you are passionate about, do them – or at least set the date to!
- Write down your ideal day and then everyday work on making your day more like that one.
- Believe that you can live a passionate life. Declare how you want your life to be and affirm it every day. Declare you want a vibrant, healthy, passionate life!
- Make time every day to take action towards your passion or towards finding your passion because no one is going to get up in the morning and be more dedicated to your life than you ar
