My customers often ask me for accessible tips on how to get fitter, reduce stress and be happier. My answer is simple and based on essential pillars:
- Quality sleep
- A healthy diet
- Daily exercise
- Precious moments with loved ones
- Projects that inspire us
- Time for ourselves: recuperation, reflection, meditation
