In December I was full of appetite. Now I’m full of good intentions. Here are my must-do’s to get healthier and give back in 2010. This list reflects my involvement with the American Cancer Society’s Movement for More Birthdays and my family’s personal experience with cancer treatment this year. I know it’s not enough just to say “I’m going to lose weight and exercise.” What does that really do for my soul? For the soul of my family? I’m trying to be holistic this year. Here goes:

1) Exercise three-four times a week (even it’s just 20 mins- just do it, as they say!)

2) Participate in a Relay for Life in Boston this spring

3) Smile more and laugh out loud each morning. It’s been proven to help– see laughter therapy.

4) Dance with my son everyday around the living room- honestly. He loves it, and it’s good exercise.

This is my  “more birthdays list.” What’s yours?
