    1. Live healthy, eat healthy foods (sometimes we can cheat and have Burgers or Pizza's :) ), 
    2. Exercise regularly (Not necessarily in gym but we can do at home also)
    3. Practice good hygiene.
    4. Try to do something that you enjoy everyday (this is most important)

    Action Track: Healing and Renewal Engage In Active Listening
    What was it like to actively listen to someone? How did both people and the conversation(s) benefit from active listening?

    Active listening has many benefits. It allows you to understand the point of view of another person and respond with empathy. It also allows you to ask questions to make sure you understand what is being said. Finally, it validates the speaker and makes them want to speak longer.
    From Active Listening, we benefited from:
    1. We need to be clear: Open-ended, clarifying, and probing questions are important active listening tools that encourage to do the work.
    2. Dont assume that you understand the other person correctly, or that they know you’ve heard them. Mirror your partner's information and emotions by periodically paraphrasing key points.
    3. Active listening requires an open mind. As a listener and a leader, be open to new ideas, new perspectives, and new possibilities when practicing active listening. Even when good listeners have strong views, they suspend judgment, hold any criticisms, and avoid interruptions like arguing or selling their point right away.
    4. One goal of active listening and being an effective listener is to set a comfortable tone that gives your partner an opportunity to think and speak. Allow “wait time” before responding. Don’t cut partner's off, finish their sentences, or start formulating your answer before they’ve finished.
    5. Share ideas.

    We all have different opinions, and we should celebrate our differences rather than highlight them. 
    How do you react when you have a conflict your family member or a close friend having with different opinions?
