Staying Healthy Through the Winter

Staying healthy through the winter

1.Bundle up and go outside – fresh air and sunshine are essential to maintaining good health

2.AVOID sugar and junk snacks especially at this time of year – they will sedate your brain so you can’t think clearly

3.Nurture friendships – healthy relationships boost the immune system.

4.Brainstorm with friends for ideas on how to party without drugs and alcohol. Alcohol acts as a depressant – not something you want to contribute to as we head into shorter, colder days.

5. Staying active is essential to emotional health and emotional health has a direct impact on physical health. Check out this website for interesting information on how exercise is one of the best medicines for stress.
