Physical Well-Being

Physical well-being means that you have enough energy and health to get things done on a daily basis. This not only includes being physically active but also includes making positive food choices and being mentally clear and energized. It’s helpful to adopt behaviors that have long-term benefits.

• In the past week, have I felt active and productive each day?
• How would I rank my physical health on a scale of 1-10?
• Do my daily behaviors energize me?

Improve

To improve your physical well-being, try the following tips:

• Exercise or move at least 20 minutes a day.
• Try to get 7-8 hours of sleep per night.
• When making food choices and being active, set positive defaults to make decisions easier.

Maximize

Maximize your physical well-being by:

• Add a cup of fruit or vegetables to your plate each day.
• Unplug before you unwind at night.
• Have walking meetings at work.
