    1. Get adequate sleep. Seven to eight hours a night is ideal, and if you can get to bed well before midnight you get extra points. This is when our bodies do most of their healing.



    2. Schedule “me time” as part of your daily routine, and make it a priority.


    3. Practice stillness or meditation every day.


    4. Incorporate yoga into your routine (and spend extra time in savasana).



    5. Eliminate refined sugar and processed carbs. They are empty calories and do nothing besides stress out your adrenals. Adrenal glands help to regulate blood sugar levels.



    6. Eat a clean diet of organic, fresh, plant-based whole foods. Load up on vegetables, fruits, nuts, legumes, beans and whole grains.



    7. Kick the coffee habit. Swap your caffeine fix for green tea, peppermint tea, dandelion and chicory root tea or nice clean water.
