July: Stress Less with Healthy Habits
- Sleep well. Try to get seven to nine hours of sleep each night. To fight insomnia, get regular physical activity during the day.
- Laugh it up. Laughter makes us feel good. Don’t be afraid to laugh out loud, even when you’re alone.
- Get connected. A daily dose of friendship is great medicine. Make time to call friends or family so you can catch up.
- Be active every day. Exercise can relieve mental and physical tension. Find something you enjoy and stick with it.
- Give up bad habits. Too much alcohol, tobacco or caffeine can increase blood pressure. Cut back or quit to decrease anxiety.

August: Daily Tips to Help Keep Your Family Active
- Put the screens on hold. Instead of heading right for the TV or game console after dinner, make that family activity time. Take a walk, practice a sport, or play a game of tag or hide-and-seek.
- Be an active parent. Experts say that what kids want more than anything else is time with their parents. To give them that, don’t just send them out to play — go play with them!
- Stress is no excuse to skip your workout. Regular physical activity can help you manage stress, sleep better and have more energy.
