Recently I was using my StumbleUpon account to waste some time when I stumbled upon (see what I did there) an article written by Ben Branstetter. In his article he talks about 30 things that you should do right now. So I decided to do my own take, 10 things you should do to live a happier, healthier lifestyle.

1. Run, Walk, Get Outside.

It's amazing what a little exercise and fresh air can do for someones mood. Trust me, get outside and enjoy the sunshine.

2. Read a book

I'm not talking about some e-text on your kindle, I mean pick up a book with a binding and papers inside.

3. Drink herbal tea

Put down the caffeine. Brew a nice cup of tea and take a minute for yourself.

4. Find a decent bed time, a time that is not an A.M. hour.

A good nights sleep does wonders and like my parents always said "early to bed, early to rise, makes a (wo)man, healthy, wealthy and wise"

5. Talk to someone new.

Step out of your comfort zone, you might learn something.

6. Watch the sunset and rise.

I think sunsets and sunrises are two of the most beautiful things that occur everyday, but are overlooked.

7. Stop snacking, make a healthy meal.

Put down the chips, healthy food leads to a healthy mind.

8. Go to the movies by yourself.

Do something for yourself, by yourself. Independence is awesome.

9. Put your phone down.

Our worlds are controlled by a piece of plastic. Its amazing what you see/ feel/ experience with out your cell phone.

10. Do something you love.

You'll thank me later.
