Jack LaLanne's Guide To Reducing Stress

Jack LaLanne, a health and fitness icon, passed away in January at the age of 96.
Just last year he wrote a book called "Live Young Forever" just to continue his love of encouraging people to get into and stay in great health!

We bought the book.

Here was a man in his 90's that was the picture of health from the time he learned about health and proper nutrition when he was 15 years old until his death at 96.

It is never too late to learn all you can to live a happy, healthy, fulfilled life!

Here are his tips for reducing stress, which is a major factor in illness.
These tips are from his book "Live Young Forever"

~Be prepared for the unexpected.
~Don't take a job of which you know little, are careless about, or that you find extremely difficult.
~ Don't expect constant approval at work or in the home. It seldom materializes.
~Work out at least three days a week: weights, stretching, walking, treadmill, yoga, Pilates.
~Prioritize your "to-do list" and follow through in order of importance.
~Eat clean: Natural, wholesome foods. Plenty of fruit and vegetables, whole grains, lean protein.
~Don't worry about the future; plan your future. Set achievable goals, and follow through.
~Do everything that is healthy for your mind and body. No junk food, drugs, or cigarettes, and very limited alcohol.
~Delegate some of your workload to others; you cannot do everything.
~Learn to completely relax at different times of the day. Put your feet up and watch a half-hour TV comedy program or read a good book.

I love these tips. Read and think about everyone of them and see if you can incorporate a few at a time!
