1. Set a timer to go off every hour to remind you to get up from those shows you’re binge watching and walk around. (Sitting is the new smoking, after all.) Now, spend at least 5 minutes moving.

5. Get Some Sun
Sunlight triggers the skin’s production of Vitamin D which helps fight respiratory infections. In the winter months, it is difficult above the Mason-Dixon line to get an adequate amount of sun, so if you live north of there, consider a Vitamin D supplement.

4. Eat Plenty of Vegetables, Fruits, Nuts & Seeds
Eating a diet rich in fruits and vegetables improves antibody responses that help fight illnesses. If you’re not a big fan of fruits and vegetables, try JuicePlus. It’s a nice alternative to broccoli.

3. Drink Less Alcohol
Alcohol impairs the immune system and increases vulnerability to lung infections such as coronavirus. A glass or two here and there is stress relieving to many, but more than that increases stress on your liver and immune system.

2. Manage Your Stress
Stress is another thing that elevates the hormone cortisol which suppresses immune function. Keep to your deadlines, but allow yourself more time to complete projects. Leave a little early for work so you don’t have to worry about arriving on time. Limit your contact with people who are stress magnets. If you’re feeling particularly stressed, take a walk, close your eyes for 10 minutes, or open a book. Anything to break the cycle of stress and stress reactions is good.

If you have chronic pain, regular neuromuscular massage can help ease the pain and maintain your range of motion, all of which help maintain your quality of life.
New studies show that mindfulness is another tool to help relieve chronic pain.
Mindfulness is nothing more than taking opportunities several times each day to bring your attention on to something in the present moment.
Much of the discomfort of chronic pain is our own reactions to it.
Often, our thoughts are brought from an activity we’re engaged in to thinking about what hurts.
There are mindfulness meditations, as well as activities that you can do anywhere to help your chronic pain.

Your body needs water to maintain its temperature both in the hot summer months, and in the cold winter months.
Not having enough fluids is a common reason for people to suffer hypothermia while engaging in outdoor activities in the winter.
Maintaining enough fluids is one way to help your body remain warmer during the winter.
