Who Needs Help
PURPOSE: Ask your friends and family how you can help them in their lives and open the door for them to discuss their needs. Trust in your relationships and take the first step to reach out and check in with your loved ones.
A New Experience
PURPOSE: Share a healthy or engaging experience with a friend or loved one. Determine what areas of their life they are struggling in, or what kind of activity would have a positive impact on them. Research activities or other ways to help them overcome their obstacles while creating a positive memory with you.
Pray4Them
PURPOSE: Consider the life choices made by the people in your life that you love whether or not you agree with or approve of all of them. While you may not be able to change the bad habits of those you care about, you can either pray for their health and for them to make better life choices in the future or put out good intentions to the Universe or towards that person.
Preparing Healthy Meals
PURPOSE: Prepare nutritious meals for you and your family to expand the healthy foods and drinks your loved ones are enjoying. Invite your family members to join you in the planning, shopping, and cooking steps to increase the time you spend together, while sharing in the joys of prioritizing your collective health and well being.
Excellent Exercise
PURPOSE: Incorporate exercise into you/your family’s daily life without making it feeling like exercise. Take your loved ones out for a daily walk or a jog at the park for a fun and easy way to get the blood pumping. If you don’t live with them, ask them to meet you somewhere to enjoy an outdoor activity.
Sharing Information
PURPOSE: Read up and arm yourself with new knowledge about health, nutrition and the importance of whole foods. Share this information with those who are important to you.
Be the Driver
PURPOSE: Be the driver when your loved needs a ride to doctor appointments, counseling sessions, or while they run errands. Extend the offer to spend time with a loved one who needs time to think out loud and process through a situation or who is walking through a dark time so they won’t have to “go it alone
Just Listen
PURPOSE: Be available to those you love and give them your time and energy when they need to talk, vent, or share their challenges. Be aware of those people in your life who may not feel safe or comfortable opening up to people and extend an invitation for them to open up to you.
Helping Hands
PURPOSE: Surprise a friend or loved one with an act of kindness. Do it with a smile on your face and let them know that you were thinking of them—they will undoubtedly feel the love and be grateful for your friendship.
Rest Up!
PURPOSE: Prioritize the rest that your body needs. You will only be able to take care of others if you are taking care of yourself first.
