Make your wellbeing a top priority.
Wellbeing is fundamental to your overall health, it is also strongly linked to happiness.
Enhanced wellbeing will help you achieve a state of balance and contentment. It's what we care about at enlite.me so we've gathered together articles, recipes and ideas to help you stay healthy and happy on your journey towards better health, your ideal weight and your new slimmer, sexier look.
There are four sources of energy we can fully engage with to live life to the full and enjoy exuberant well-being.
They are:
1. Physical
2. Emotional
3. Mental
4. Spiritual
Basically, this is about the food we eat, how much water we drink, how we breathe, our fitness level and the quality of our sleep and rest.
In 2011 the US replaced the well-known 'food pyramid' of healthy eating with 'my plate' - the easy to remember idea that half your plate of food should be made up of fruit and vegs and other half with lean proteins, whole grains and low-fat dairy.
Eating a healthy diet and maintaining a healthy weight is vital for energy and well-being. enlite.me smart.food plus low fat, high fiber, nutritious meals are a safe and natural way to do this.
We also recommend you drink 2.5 liters of water a day to keep you well hydrated as dehydration leads to muscle weakness and increases your risk of heart disease.
Our emotions profoundly affect our well being. It's been proved that negative emotions release stress hormones like cortisol which are not only bad for our physical health but make us feel lousy too.
By contrast, it's been proved that positive emotions are really good for our physical health, they slow down aging and make us feel light and happy.
So, how to increase our dose of positive emotions and reduce the negative ones? It all starts with how we think.

By spiritual we're not talking about religion as such but a deep faith in your values and principles that form a solid foundation for your commitment to your journey to health, wellness and weight loss.
Once we really commit to something rather than just half-heartedly think we'd like to do it then what happens is that something inside of us shifts.
It's almost as if our real self, deep inside us, makes the decision and then we rally all our resources behind our commitment so that we see it through.
We will falter and meet challenges on the way, that's part of the journey, but what really matters is that rock solid commitment you make with yourself that this time it's going to happen and...'if it's gonna be, it's up to me' - adapted from William H. Johnson, African American artist
Here at enlite.me we will support you in all your efforts towards attaining your long-term weight loss and maintenance and your ongoing vitality and wellbeing.
