The key to a successful lifestyle is in the mind. I'm sure you've heard the all-time favorite cliche "If you put your mind into it" and it's true, it all starts there.
Self-awareness is next. Your body is a pretty smart mechanism and it will tell you if it's not happy with what you are doing to it, not doing to it, putting into it or depriving it of. You need to pay attention to your body, the signals its sending you. Are you too stressed out? Too busy? Overwhelmed? Tired all the time? Take note of these.
Set yourself a realistic goal. How about an hour of yoga, Pilates or any other favorite workout - cardio kickboxing for example, once a week. You will notice how GREAT it makes you feel afterwards, you will become more productive, more alert, energetic and eager to go back and do it again, so this amazing cycle of feeling fantastic never ends. Then, it's a snowball effect from there, you start to feel great after a workout, you want to feed your body something healthy, you get inspired from all kinds of different recipes out there, you get creative, you are working out your mind, your body and your soul. It's a wonderful never-ending cycle that once you get on it, you won't want to jump off.
