Fitness!!! If you think its punishment or torture then you are not going to stick with it.  Two important things that we can do for our bodies as young people is to choose healthy eating and exercise regularly. We often feel like healthy living is an impossible goal that requires tedious steps. Well, anything worth having requires a little more effort, there is no magic pill or potion to getting fit. You have to embrace health and fitness as a lifestyle through your daily fitness routine. First of all this is not to help you how to lose weight or train you for a marathon but simply to get you to make some changes to be more healthy and help you get started on a life long journey to keep your body feeling and looking healthy daily as a young person.

STEP 1: 10 minutes exercise
Yes 10 minute. In fitness language that is more than enough time to get in shape. You may not be interested in going to the gym or jogging or evening doing any sports but simply taking a walk or dancing is better than nothing.
STEP 2: Talk to God
No joke. Most of the time we never really think that stress and anxiety affects our bodies in anyway. Our minds need to have a daily exercise. Before you start your day take a minute or two and ask God to guide you through your day. Read something that uplifts your spirits the bible or a motivational quote.

Happy Body, Happy Mind, Happy Life!!!!
