2. I eat a balanced diet that includes a variety of foods from all food groups.
3. I drink enough water each day to feel hydrated.
4. I get 7-9 hours of sleep each night and feel rested upon waking.
5. I have effective strategies in place for managing stress.
6. I regularly visit healthcare professionals for check-ups.
7. I avoid smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and the use of illicit substances.
8. I am attentive to any changes in my physical health and seek medical advice when necessary.
