So last night, John Tesh gave some hints about staying healthy this holiday season.  Y’all know how crazy I am about John Tesh, so I took his advice to heart.  Some of them, and how I’m following them:

• Eat plenty of orange fruits and vegetables for the beta carotene.  I actually had a tangerine this morning for breakfast, as well as one last night.  So I think I’m good.
• Adopt a pet.  Apparently, the germs and gook that pets bring in and around the house builds your immunity as well as lowers your blood pressure.  I think this, alone, will make our house the healthiest one on the planet.  But just to ward off any oncoming colds.. Bryan and tB are moving the cats in tonight.  Might I remind you, Mabel has never seen a cat before.  So I’m not sure this will lower anyone’s blood pressure for awhile.
• Laugh and sing.  I hit the stage tomorrow night again, which will have me singing.  And, let’s face it, I’m a laugher anyway.
• Remember the holiday.  This was my favorite tip.  There is so much to be thankful for, so much to be grateful for, and so much to celebrate around this time of year.  Family, friends, love and being loved.. it even makes being sick bearable.

So what other home remedy tips do you have for staying well?
