Encourage a positive lifestyle by keeping healthy food within reach. The most obvious way is to put a bowl of fruit on the table, but there are other things you can do.

Avoid last-minute dinner decisions by displaying a meal planner in the kitchen, with nourishing options for the whole week. If you have children, get them involved by asking them to contribute their ideas.

Think of ways you can make it easy to choose a wholesome snack. Keep nuts and granola bars in tempting glass jars. If you’ve invested in a juicer or yogurt maker, don’t let it languish in the cupboard. Make room for it on the counter so that you’ll be more inclined to use it.
