1. EXERCISE - Hit the gym, lift some weights or the dance floor. Feeling good about yourself not only boosts your ego a little but you are healthier on the inside as well and this will give you energy and stamina. Take your time do not rush into running 10 miles a day. Take your time and feel what your body needs. Maybe join a gym and get some personal instruction. Or start yoga and Chi Gong. Aerobic exercise may be your best bet but be sure to start where your body is equipped too, maybe 15 minutes every other day. (check out this study)
2. EAT HEALTHY- Eating healthy is also about keeping a healthy balance of proteins, fruits and vegetables and plenty of water. Carbs too but limited amounts. Eat fruits and vegetables that help you hydrate. Add some cucumbers or lemons to your water for an extra kick. Stay regular and keep the body moving. You will increase your energy and stamina with just eating the right foods.
3. MEDITATE- Keep your cortisol levels balanced, stress is the main culprit and needs to be eliminated as best you can. This is about taking the time to take care of yourself. Meditating helps you by guiding you in the direction you need to go to be happy. Stop and relax and give yourself a moment to hear the tiny voice inside you. You owe it to yourself to listen. This is where you see yourself happy and living the life you want and deserve.
4. SUNLIGHT- Yes, sun light increases your levels of Vit D. Vitamin D helps increase muscle development and helps strengthen your bones. Plus, the way you feel after a little time in the sun, maybe 20 minutes will leave you feeling energized and renewed. If you can take a swim as well even better or maybe an outdoor shower to really get the juices flowing. Water has a way of making us feel fresh and renewed.
5. LIMIT OR ELIMINATE ALCOHOL - Yeah, I said it, alcohol is known to reduce your levels of testosterone. Also, alcohol depresses the central nervous system which means it makes it difficult to get and keep an erection. It may take up to 3 months to see a change after quitting alcohol so be patient.

6. GET ENOUGH SLEEP - Yes rest is good, this is where your body restores itself. You must have it to restore the body, keep the heart healthy, support weight management, keep immune system strong, increase your attention span, boost memory and learning just to name a few benefits.
7. EMOTIONAL SELF- CARE - ok I know this is a bad topic for some of you. But getting in touch with your emotions can be easy, you don't have to go to a doctor's office anymore, you can find therapy online. Even free. Join a men's support group or make time to be with the guys. Somewhere where you can open up and be yourself. Somewhere you feel safe to talk about your feeling and concerns. This helps keep stress away and the mind-body feeling good. Unload the feelings you do not need and make room for all the good feelings. Feel balanced inside and out. You got this!
