on little changes that make a huge impact on your health and general wellbeing?

Mine are
To consume garlic and turmeric daily
Give up alcohol
Cycle daily
Get 7-7.5 hours sleep a night

The above things have made a huge change to my life - I feel so full of energy, healthier, and more positive since quitting alcohol especially. Cycling makes me feel calmer, stronger and more relaxed, and the sleep thing - if I get under 7 hours of sleep, I feel sleepy, and if I get 8 hours or more, I feel exhausted! Worse than if I had 6 hours or less.

Anyone else found little changes that have had a big affect on your daily life, your health, and how much energy you have each day?

I'm looking for more little changes to make because I can't believe I lived for so long making tiny mistakes that made me feel sluggish, sleepy, anxious, or generally rubbish every day.

My point is that waking in the night isn't something that I need to worry about as it happens to lots of people.

It is. I thought it was all a con til I tried it.

Quit alcohol - my skin is fabulous and I have so much energy.
Vit D spray - stops the occasional low mood I was experiencing
I spend 3 days a month in my pyjamas, pottering about, reading, mumsnetting, watching TV, recharging.
Accepting I need 8 hours sleep in order to function.

Bhangra. Nearly impossible (situations may vary) to remain in any way sad whilst watching Bhangra warriors on YouTube.

Am going to try vit D as well as it seems to be uninanimous.
